please look out for my stolen ships (Melbourne Australia)

By gadwag, in X-Wing

I had two cases of X-Wing stolen from my car last night. Most of my small and medium ships were taken, along with a few cards. The two cases were Kmart black cases with a clear lid and orange removable tubs.

Identifiable objects were: - my custom templates (red, engraved with gold hexagonal sabacc card designs) - firespray painted grey and brown in the style of The Mandalorian - kimogila painted purple - z-95 painted teal and pink - scyk painted teal and purple with engine burns - awful orange and teal painted scurrg - starviper painted with stock paint, corrosion marks and heavy brown wash

There were a bunch of other ships in there as well. If anyone sees these items for sale, please contact the North Melbourne police and me immediately. I'll comment on here with a full list of ships later today.

Mate that is awful - really feel for you.

The cost of replacing these items is bad but all the time you have obviously put into sorting everything out into an orderly format and personalizing stuff really hurts.

The worst part is the low life bastards who took it will probably have no use for it at all.

Lets hope by some miracle you van get it back.

Do you have pawn shops like we in the u.s. have? Good place to check.

Sorry to hear mate. I'll keep an eye out on the sell/swap/trade groups I follow here in Aus.

That royally sucks. I've heard of other gamers who've had their stuff stolen out of the car, even when it was not in sight (in the trunk)..

Hope you get it all back..

Thanks all. I've checked local dumpsters and told the cops, and some of my mates are keeping an eye on pawn shops in the area (I don't live there)

If anyone wants to chip in to help rebuild, you can do so here: https://ko-fi.com/gadwag

Please don't feel any obligation to give, but any support is welcome.

I'm using ko-fi for this because they don't charge fees

Massive thanks to the community for your help rebuilding my collection. Apart from an alpha class star-wing (which I'm happy to accept as a loss given how rare they are) and some rigged cargo templates, my collection is pretty much back to where it was. I really appreciate your help getting me back in the game

Any word yet on if they found the culpriates?

We believe that the Culpriates have a secret base on one of the Outer Rim worlds. Our probe droids will soon locate them.

Just as long as we get to torpedo sphere them into oblivion..

Commence Primary Ignition!

Sadly nothing from the cops, they haven't even followed up for further details after I filed the report. Probably very low priority for them.

EDIT: Cops are now working the case
