Subject: Star Wars capital ships in resin
I can't believe nobody posted *this* http://members.aol.com/odysseyslipways/index.html Resin 1:10,000 scale Star Wars ships. He just has the Dreadnought and Republic Heavy Cruiser (pretty much the same hull) available now, with more coming. The Dreadnought is US$10.00 I resisted the Fleet scale sale when AOG went under, this I can't.

VERY nice -- but . . . do you think he's going to be able to ship anything before Lucas's lawyers get a hold of him? Nick Caldwell nicholascaldwell@earthlink.net [quoted original message omitted]

> From: Foxx Travis <lordkalvin2002@yahoo.com> His main prblem is that he used the name "Star Wars Star Destroyer" as part of the name. Take a look at Vallent Class Dreadnaught of the Galactic Knights (the old Superior models) at http://www.mondayknight.com/ if you want to see a model that is close to a Starwars Model. The secret is to make the model somewhat different and not too close to the name and the lawyers will not be after you.. Another close figure was McEwan's Colonal Infantry and Terran Marines who looked alot like figures from starwars. Again, there was enough different to keep the lawyers away.
