Ed9217 Posted December 29, 2015 A work in progress of the resistance speeder, I hope to do a more detailed version once more photos of this craft come out. I think it may be slightly big, however there are no photos with anybody inside the craft to compare with. Quite happy with how it's come out so far Photo of the actual speeder Happy for any critique Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Junior Shark Posted December 29, 2015 Coolio! I was gonna do this myself after picking up the visual dictionary, but you beat me to it! These Force Awakens tie-in books are proving to be worth their salt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ed9217 Posted December 29, 2015 Coolio! I was gonna do this myself after picking up the visual dictionary, but you beat me to it! These Force Awakens tie-in books are proving to be worth their salt. Yeah that's exactly what I did, some great bits in the visual dictionary. I myself prefer the resistance to the first order so this was a must. It was a bit of a challenge due to lack of photos as well as it being a small veichle, but hopefully as time goes on more pictures of this little craft will emerge. Good luck with yours, look forward to hopefully seeing a few other mocs of the gian 211 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
khatmorg Posted December 29, 2015 Oh that's actually pretty nice, did not know the battlepack model was modeled after an existing prop. Looks nice so far. Is the Gian 211 the official name for the thing, I can't find any info about it anywhere except brickset? I don't suppose you have a higher res picture of it?

There is very little info I'm afraid on this craft at the moment, the only source of info I have found is in the force awakens visual dictionary, well worth the purchase. Shame there's not A lot about this veichle. Hoping some more pics will turn up soon. I'm afraid I can't upload a better photo atm, however here is the photo with the info on the speeder. Hope that helps :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Junior Shark Posted December 30, 2015 If I'm not mistaken, the Gian is an original Episode I speeder, the purple Naboo speeder that wasn't the flash speeder. Right? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redbeards_Rum Posted December 30, 2015 If I'm not mistaken, the Gian is an original Episode I speeder, the purple Naboo speeder that wasn't the flash speeder. Right? You are not mistaken. The Gian speeder was a repulsorlift vehicle and heavy patrol speeder used by the Royal Guards of Naboo. It was a heavier version of the Flash speeder. (I'll get my anorak....)

Correct, this seems to be a smaller version of one of those, they seemed to be much bigger and with heavier weapons. It seems the resistance will use anything due to lack of veichles, even utilising an obsolete yet still functioning craft such as the 211 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
