I've seen a few people who have starfighter avatars but when I chose mine I couldn't find any. Did I miss something when I was looking?

Travel back in time, we don't know why they were removed but currently there's no way I know of sorry.

You need 2000 posts, with 2000 likes.

Then you need to set the forum wizard mode to wazanga on your profile.

Next step is to uninstall and reinstall chrome. Before logging onto the forum you need to download the X-wing Starfighter plug in.

DON'T GO TO THE FORUM YET!

Now you need to download the entire X-wing series off of GOG.com and complete all missions, making sure to save your status so you can be general/topace of Empire and Rebel. For Empire you need to complete all bonus objectives on tour 5.

Log in to the forums and no, you still won't have the avatars. Hobo was right.

Only Jedi Masters of the highest level (or Sith Lords) can achieve the right to put their personal starfighter on their forum picture.

Has anyone ever contacted FFG to ask them why?

I seem to recall someone did, and they said that it was a bug, but that was several months ago, and it hasn't been fixed so I don't know.

Dang! Well at least I can get a Viper.

The lack of SW avatars on here is super disappointing.

They have so much great art from all their cool games, and we only get a handful of Avatars. I'm sure it's not high on their priority list, but c'mon.

At the moment I think the only SW ones are from the RPGs. Where's our X-Wing, IA, and Armada avatars!?

I figure I'll just keep Cap's shield until they finally bring back X wing avatars.

I really want the Deathrain pilot art as avatar...
