An unnamed planet, unless the Swarm gives names to their worlds. Either way, the remains of Galaxy Patrol Troop 783 do not know the name of the world on which they will earn their Grand-Admirals' Stars. Their ranks thinned by the Swarm until there were only three left, The 783 staged their last stand behind the meager barricades provided by the airfoils of their downed dropship. The 783 attribute their survival entirely to the presence of an experimental Galactic-Class Combat Exo-Suit on their mission. Trooper Phillips, who piloted the suit, attributed his record-setting number of combat kills to its agility and incredibly aggressive weapon loadout. "The railgun was a lifesaver. Those plasma pellets could slam through a bug's carapace like it was a wet piece of toilet paper. When I took down the Queen who attacked us near the end, it was emptying the railgun between her eyes that finally got her to stop crawling for good," Phillips recounted. "And that B.R.O.A.D. Sword! They need to start shipping those out to every exo-suit across the galaxy, stat," Phillips continued. "It thinned out troops like nobody's business." (The Sword in question is an experimental weapon. An iron ball is anchored to a super-thin carbon nanotube filament, and then suspended in midair by the projection of super-strong magnetic fields from the Sword's bulky hilt. This draws the nanotube filament incredibly taut, allowing it to slice through most materials with easy. When in use, the Sword tends to glow orange due to the inductive heat generated by the magnetic fields.) "Of course, Luiz played a critical role as air support. He was my eye in the sky. And Kovacs picked up any strays that got by me so that our distress beacon wouldn't get destroyed before help arrived." The three survivors will be commended at a ceremony on Terra next week. Some more pictures of the suit: It can directly hold a Patrol figure! Troopers, meanwhile, have to already be wearing a Gunpack (standard equipment for the Heavy in most squads) in order to slot into the exo-suit. The attachment point on the rear of the Exo-suit can have a variety of additional hardware mounted on it. Engineers are currently trying to give it a jetpack, but for now the standard module is an S-14 Survival Pack. The pack holds two holdout guns should the suit ever run out of power or ammo, along with a buzzsaw for cutting teammates out of wreckage, an antenna to maintain connection with orbiting ships, and a tempered titanium sword as a weapon of last resort. The box on the bottom of the pack further holds a number of tools for suit repair, a water purifier, and enough nutrient bricks to sustain a troop of five for two weeks while waiting for help to arrive. After this great success, be on the lookout for the Galactic-Class exo-suit coming to an active front near your planet! (Notes on the model: it has 12 points of articulation with 18 degrees of freedom (14 of those in the legs!) and is ~140 pieces. Not counting the antenna, it stands around 10 cm tall)

MOCed up a nice little Fighter using only the Glowkies Mixels: a perfect match for colour-scheme. Comments welcome! :)

An Exo-Suit made for the Galaxy Patrol minifig using only parts from the Glowkies (Series 4 - Mixels): Globert (41533), Vampos (41534) and Boogly (41535). I think it turned out pretty great! I even managed to built a slightly enclosed cockpit. The cockpit also features a neural link for the pilot to control the exo-suit! :D I also used the glow-in-the-dark eyeball head to give my Galaxy Patrol mini a glowing visor. :) More pics:

Called the "The Flea" because it's not very big but it's super tough and super annoying lol I imagine they use these to fly into larger ships to destroy specific targets, like the fuel cells, hangars, etc. Also, sorry for the corny topic title :P -Fits minifigure -2 additional directional thrusters in rear for even sharper maneuvers -Adjustable fins -Adjustable guns -Fully sealed cockpit -Snazzy orange dome for extra pizzazz Bunch of angles

Another ship in the Galaxy Patrol fleet, this armed and armored Cargo Transport is perfect for ferrying vital supplies, or even high-value informants and witnesses. More angles Top and rear hinge open. Maybe I can change it so the whole top comes off instead, would make it easier to place items inside.
