I am doing a Star Wars campaign, and I need a boarding shuttle (or 4). I am looking for something that would scale to be just a bit bigger than the Studio Bergstrom fighters. Any suggestions?

There is an Aero tech shiop that looks similar to that |

I just came across these today and haven't seen them in person, but Minifigs UK (specifically Matchlock) have a 6mm sci-fi range with some ships that might work for looks. I would estimate the SB stuff to be maybe just a bit smaller than 6mm, so scale-wise it could work. Small shuttle:

I think (a dangerous activity) that you are referring to the larger Studio Bergstrom fighters.I have the following which I use with 6mm miniatures. Hot Wings X-112
Hot Wings x-22
Both are about 5 inches long. When repainted they work very nicely as assault shuttles. |

I guess I should have specified. I am looking for the fleet scale ships. That small shuttle would be spot on, but I think it is too big. |

Ah yes, sorry, I was interpreting that as for SB's "fighter scale" ships. Maybe GZG's Camerone (FSE) heavy fighters? Or just the tractor unit of their tug? link Brigade Models UK might have some stuff that works too. |

Really hard to visualize what you have in mind. I would suggest going through the Ground Zero Games line, Iron Wind Metals Aerotech, Babylon 5 fleet action, and the offerings in the shop at Starship Modeler. My guess is that Aerotech or the Babylon 5 stuff is the best bet. Babylon 5

Have the same problem and think about Silent Death Corvettes.
