Star Wars Hoth Han Solo, Luke Skywalker & Princess Leia


The Battle of Hoth was a major victory for the Galactic Empire during the Galactic Civil War. The battle was an offensive by the Galactic Empire aimed at destroying the Rebel Alliance's Echo Base hidden on the remote arctic world Hoth. The base's location was compromised when a viper probe droid deployed by Darth Vader landed on Hoth. A major disaster for the Rebel Alliance, the loss of the base put the Rebels on the run once again, struggling to reorganize its battered forces.
Information paraphrased from Wookiepedia

Han Solo, depicted in Hoth gear, managed to escape in the Millennium Falcon with Princess Leia Organa, after a close encounter with an advance group of snowtroopers. Luke Skywalker piloted a T-47 snowspeeder but was shot down, subsequently escaped and headed for Dagobah to a fateful rendezvous with Yoda.

Migrating to Facebook

After a tragedy in the family and a slow return to my hobbies, I've realized that I've been posting more on Facebook. It's easier, faster and the audience response is faster. So, posting here might be spasmodic at best for the time being. Bear with me as I decide what to do with my blogs, thanks!

Custom ARAH Duke

Here's another repainted Duke with some new ammo packs made in putty. This is a custom painted 1993 Battle Corps Battle Commander Duke. One of my early experiments with epoxy putty. I have another version of this figure on the workbench so expect to see it soon here too.
