rockpopandchips Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 (edited) With the empire making cut backs the speeder bikes are having to be replaced with BMX, this new trooper is proud of his new blue bike. Just a bit of fun, I might do more with it later but for now they will stay like this. Edited October 29, 2018 by rockpopandchips 6 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Chief Smeg Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Ah, beat me to it. I’ve got a speeder bike in the stash and I wanted a scale ‘Africa Twin’ style bike for him that could be painted up in colours to match his armour. You got the pose perfect! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerbannog Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 He obviously mispleased Vader and got his new mount from him, as we all know the Emperor is less forgiving. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been wanting to do a trooper on a motorbike for ages after seeing the astonishing red striped Stormtrooper and a ducati but have never gotten around to it until I saw these BMX bikes and thought they look very close to 1/12 scale. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan R Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 (edited) That's put me in mind to put a trooper on a Ducati. Stolen from the rebellion of course! Dukes are far too classy for the empire!!! Anyway, why should the empire have all the cool stuff... Cheers, Alan.
