• Is actually fully indestructible thanks to its armour, but the Empire never thought to put it on anything else. The next few examples are actual in-universe examples of its indestructibility.

I read TIE Pilot's point as something more along the lines of "This is how stupid the idea of the Sun Crusher is."

Just build 100,000 sun crushers and line the exterior hull of an executor with them! especially that pesky bridge window area, so the guy who's job it is to prevent the ship nose diving into the nearest gravity well has some extra protection.

The Suncrusher is not only the most stupid, overpowered, unkillable thing ever, they also didn't even make it look cool. Seriously, it looks so, so dumb. Like an ice cream cone.

I like Ice Cream.

If we get any ship that was on screen during the PT, you will promptly find my collecting on Ebay. I'll need the money for Armada.

The millenium falcon is on screen during episode 2, so you better start listing stuff.

Honestly I've seen the PT maybe twice... Is it the actual Falcon? Or just a standard YT-1300?

Actually yes! The Milennium Falcon was on screen in Episode III as The Stellar Envoy!

Start packing up I suppose..?

It's clearly a YT-1300 (or actually a pair of them), but it's a small detail in a large image. Hard to say whether or not it's the Falcon.

Oh, and the YT-1300 shows up again in Episode III.

Slave One. Had some pretty good screen time in Episode II.

So when can we expect to see your collection on Ebay?

Ohoho.

Then, assuming you're not just talk throwing such statements around with no intention of backing them up, you better be selling, because the Falcon is in Episode 3, and the Firespray-31 has more prequel screen time than OT screen time.

Oh, and Armada has the Havoc in it, a ship from an Episode I tie in game called Starfighter about flying N-1s.

I'm really enjoying these posts.

They make me feel all warm inside.

im going to ponit out that the aurek class tactical strike fighter seved on the front line for over 3000 years so the n1 is no problem check the wiki if you don't beleive me http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Aurek_tactical_strikefighter

But the YT-1300 was in the OT, same with the Firespray. I'm more talking about the V-wings, droid fighters, and the lot.

Not what you said. What you said was "If we get any ship that was on screen during the PT, you will promptly find my collecting on Ebay. I'll need the money for Armada."

And by manufacturing concerns you mean what? I said anything, not everything. That it's expensive stuff? Sure, but if you were the Empire and you invented Death Star proof armour are you going to to go to all the effort to manufacture it for one starfighter and then never use it again?

I'll voice a dissenting opinion.

Gimme the K-Wing.

Gimme the ARC-170.

The uglier, the better.

No question the N-1 is tainted, but why is it on a list of ugly ships? I thought the whole problem people had with it (other than the movie it appeared in) was that it wasn't ugly enough.

For a long time x-wing fans and people on the forums would say "plz don't do prequel ships" "keep it galactic civil war era" blah blah blah and so forth. I thought a lot of this came from people not wanting the N-1. The list of ships aren't necessarily ugly ones but ships that for some reason or another people don't want in the game.

We can speculate about ships we want to see in upcoming waves/releases why not speculate about ships we don't want as well?

What really bothers me about the Naboo fighter isn't so much the stingray with a couple of engine pods strapped to the side look but the yellow and chrome colour reminds me too much of a hot-rod car show and not a star wars military fighter.

Maybe the Naboo are secretly really a planet full of motor sports enthusiasts?

If they did do the N-1 it wouldn't bother me too much but I think there are others that would hate it. (I think its probable since the Lucas proper-gander machine keeps telling us its a good ship)

I have a Mel's Minis Kwing and it turned out nice. I set it on a 2 wide base and it makes for both interesting flying and holds a lot of tricks for such a big lumbering ship...not a large ship but the "wide" base makes it fun.

Insert comment about wanting long and wide based ships [here].

Funny you'd mention that. I recall reading that Naboo actually made their stuff as environmentally friendly and efficient as possible.

In defense of an otherwise indefensible film, as an escort fighter for the monarch, the hot rod look makes a certain amount of sense.

Plus none of the ships in Star Wars utilizes any kind of camouflage scheme (like a black-painted ship), so none of the colors makes sense for real military aircraft. However, the Naboo N-1 does, as was pointed out, jive nicely with the Thunderbirds, the Blue Angels, and WW1 military aircraft.

Still going to give it the airbrush treatment if they ever make one. I don't need no tropical banana yellow spaceships in my squads.

I wont know how exactly until I get the model but there's a whole Internets worth of alternatives out there.

Don't mistake me. I still don't didn't like the ship.

Wow. When you strip the yellow off, that doesn't look half bad.

Like I said in the other thread

I think the main problem most people have with the n1 isn't the actual design of the ship, it's the color they choose for it in the movie. If they had painted the thing in a different pattern, in blue or green maybe, I think it would have gone over a lot better.

I think the N-1 is a pretty nice ship in and of itself, it just doesn't fit well compared to the gritty look you get in the sw universe.

I don't want to say what I read that nacelle's logo as.

I like the camouflage look:

I don't see the draw to prequels .. just a fancy space "pod racer" w/ autopilot.

Make no mistake, the Sun Crusher is stupid, but something like it is exactly the place you would use such armor. If the stuff is monumentally expensive and/or difficult/slow to produce, then you will only have a little bit of it. There is not enough for a capital ship. You could armor a TIE, but why bother? Its combat power is still small. But a starfighter-sized super weapon? That makes sense. You need little armor to protect it, and such a vehicle could otherwise be easily destroyed. Even if the technical knowledge (and specialized manufacturing facilities) to make the stuff survived events around the Maw Installation, people may simply have decided it was not worth the cost. Maybe one super starfighter can win you a battle, but we are talking war on a galactic scale, and that one ship cannot be everywhere. If those funds buy you three Star Destroyers, which option is more useful. The former is also not completely invincible. Maybe I immobilize it with some capital ship tractor beams and drag it away for research or throw it into a black hole. If I have Force users, maybe I attack the mind of the pilot.

After some poking around in Wikipedia, I present the Fast Hand. Prepare to facepalm.

I really should not be surprised by Star Wars internal consistency fails by this point.

If a "fast moving gem" can dent the Fast Hand, Star Wars weaponry would make short work of it given the relative energies involved.

Sun crusher. No longer canon.

In disney (and FFG) I trust.
