That one is a prototype too, the production version of the Crusier has 3 engines in a triangle, whereas that has two engines at the top. As for the snowspeeder, it looks like it's been based around the engine part, but it's not the actual part itself used.Thundershot wrote:the Cosmic Cruiser on the card back photo looks to have parts off the SW Snow Speeder used for the jets..or am I just mad?
I have come across a similar piece before with the Millennium Falcon radar dish. It was vaccum cast from the piece itself, which is injection moulded. This process produces a lower quality product, not as detailed, so begs the question as to why they would have vac formed such a piece as injection moulding gives a much stronger and beeter quality piece, unless it was used in a mock up, display or to use as base for another piece, like the Cruiser engine.
I'll sort out an image to show. It's worth mentioning this was in amoungst the Boffin - but does not 100% that this was intended for Action Force.
