After creating my micro X-wing and TIE-advanced, I wondered whether I could design new micro models, or whether my first MOC was just a lucky shot :oh: . I decided to expand my collection of builds, aiming for a maximum piece count of 15 per build (so that it could fit in the advent calendar).

The TIE-interceptor came first. The most recognizable parts were the wings, so I started looking for pieces.

I'm glad with the result, but it would be even better if a "fin"-piece would appear with one straight edge and a pin at that side. But well... I'm complaining too much :hmpf_bad: .

Then, I needed a rebel fighter from episode VI (for playability of course! :tongue: ). I tried the Y-wing and B-wing, but didn't got that far. The A-wing was a tough one as well, because the most recognizable element is the overall shape. I got stuck once more. In the meantime, I was building set 4507 (Prehistoric creatures), and I stumbled across the Bionicle eye piece. It was a hit. The idea of rollerskates as engines followed a bit later on. But the canopy was a real pain... Untill I discovered it was already there with the clip for ataching the nose :laugh: . My build was finally complete.

The TIE-interceptor consists of 13 pieces, the A-wing clocks in at just 9 pieces *oh2* !

I'm happy with the result, but there's a downside: the fin pieces that make up the TIE's wings are not available in black and the rollerskates are only available in black. None of these models is buildable in real life... so far. :devil:

I'd love to see these, but the images aren't showing up.

Sorry for the inconvenience, but I'm not able to fix to problem with the pictures now. I'll look into it tomorrow. In the mean time, maybe you can acces the pictures through the link in my signature...

Update: everything should be visible now. I edited the photo's in Flickr and didn't realize that would change the image-URL. I'm sorry.

To be honest I think these look even better than the other micro ships you made. Keep up the great work.

Thanks every one of you for your kind comments!

The rollerskates are now available in pink. So if you want to build a pink A-wing, now you finally can!

Regarding other micros: I have no ongoing builds at the moment, but I plan to make some more micro's in the future. I have had episode iv and vi now, so maybe something from ESB? Anyway, suggestions are always welcome.

Hope you enjoy my little collections of parts.
