I put Saints Row The Third in the XBox tonight and saw the greeting/taunt "The Skroob." Oh, did that bring back some memories.

After wrapping up for the night, I thought how much fun it might be to have a Spaceballs force of a dozen or two Ping Pongs and a Dark Helmet for my Starport Defense Force game. They can appear as special guest opponents.

Obviously the helmets need to be puttied, but suggest troop bodies that would look good? Power armor is straight out, they look like guys in spandex suits with a little bit of armor here and there – think Stormtrooper but not quite that cool.

For a spare 10k you can own the original Spaceballs One Mothership prop

Ok, it's 28mm but……I had a guy come into my store with a Jews in Space army. The themed space marines were black armor with white chest plates and had kippas on as well as talits.
He was doing an IDF themed IG army. I think he was calling it the IGF or something along those lines. I never did get to see the IG.

What about using GZG NAC as the Ping Pongs? The helmet is fairly round…

I'll have to dig through the (many) bins – I think I may have some of the NACs already.
