Some of you saw the work-in-progress X-Wing come a cropper during the Wacky Racers event at the member's day.

These will be featured in future versions of my Battle of Hoth display, replacing the various ones from sets I've been using up to now.

Each one is based on a specific fighter from the movies. Here's is Red 2, which was flown by Wedge Anteles, the only pilot to survive both death star battles:

These are not my design. They were designed by a builder named Jerak, and the instructions are available on Brick Vault, though I've made some minor tweaks to the design. I do find it can be a really great learning process to see how other builders do things.

I'm planning to use a mix of custom prints and decals to further customise them.
