Star Wars GB round up

Modeling Subjects Science Fiction
1

Firstly, for those who took part in the GB, my apologies. The GB ended (officially) 2 months ago. I promisei would do this but a fe wthings got in the way, but, i get tehre in the end.

To everyone else. Last year, not such a long time ago, i hosted the Star Wars GB Ep II, certainly not all that far, far away. The GB was run into the lea up of the release of Star Wars Ep VII.

And so, the members of the FSM forum boldly set fourth (i know, differant franchise, just roll with it [;)]) to enforce their respective factions. Many choose to join for the Glory of the Empire, there were some traitors amongst the group who will be dealt with in time.

And after all their efforts, we hads 18 completed builds, which i now present for your enlightment and perusal.

Hey Bish,

The release date for Episode VIII was pushed back to December 15th 2017.

Bugger, when did that happen. I only checked a few weeks ago. But i thought it was a bit of a tight time frame when John Boyega mentioned at the BAFTA’s on Sun he was starting shooting the next day.

Ok, time for a re think. Cheers Bruce.

Disney decided to realease the 5th installment of Pirates of the Caribbean on May 26th, and then release Episode 8 around Christmas time since Episode 7 did so well in December.

5

The crafty swine. I thought the May release was a good idea being 40 years after the original. O well, we wil just have to hold on a while longer. So, i am guessing we will be seeing Ep IX in Dec 2019.

Really sharp collection of models there guys, ya’ll should be proud! And thanks Bish for posting this, I poked my head in the GB a few times to look around but didn’t keep track of all the coolness going on.

Whenever the next SW GB is I might have to jump in with a little rebellion myself… [;)]
