not sure if these are still on shelf or not I bought all I could find a few months back.

I used some bits from my box for various slipstream left overs.

I am working on variants and am making a total of 14

most will be fighters like pictures – a few with heavier weapons and a few with missile pods

That's a cool idea.

Hmmm, they look like 15mm grav racing bikes to me.

Those just hit the shelves again here in the PNW. Keep seeing cool things but haven't bought any yet. Way to busy doing all the Matchbox stuff I bought but those grav thingies are making me want some. Would fit right in with the new army I'm working on. Hope you don't mind if I borrow that idea.

Ok, I'm soooo buying a few of those for my ultra-tech scifi games.
