I hoping for a plug-in kit that worked with the existing peg & post, rather than you having to chop up the minis. I've long since done this with my formerly-clicky Crimson Skies planes.

I did that with the old ERTL plastic Star Wars Millenium Falcon and Rebel Transport – it certainly is a nice touch :)

I have thought about doing that for check your 6 games.

Already did that with my B-Wings so they could spin.

Have something like this for my Wings of Glory models. I suppose the same idea would work for these as well.

I hoping for a plug-in kit that worked with the existing peg & post, rather than you having to chop up the minis. Could you get by with putting the ball on an end cut from an extra peg, and just slide that into the model? Then leave the model stock? Doug
