Jim James Star Wars Escort

Jim James Escort

This was a small, fun project. I took the ships from the ERTL Rebel Base on Hoth playset (X-Wings, Rebel Transport and Millenium Falcon) and threw away the horrible looking  Y-wings. I took the X-Wings from the ERTL Battle on Hoth set and together with the Rebel Base ships made this wall-mounted scene I call Escort Duty.

The Falcon and transport are pretty much OOB. The X-wings (1 1/2 inch wing span) have drilled out engines, decals and separate wing laser cannons. Those were fun to do.

The mount is just a piece of wood, painted black, with with mounting rods.
