Sticking minis in the box

I have a bunch of sw miniatures, so I'm going ahead and replacing the pogs with miniatures….

also, i have a tutorial at my website that shows you how to make your own pogs…

I figured minis look better than tokens, and if have them sitting around, why not use them…

What model did you use for the droids? (41-VEX and the other generic Droids)

I have a ton of minis that I kept for this game, but I don't recognize the ones you've used.

Nice to see that someone had the same idea I had, putting one's extensive use of SWminis to good use :)

Worked out pretty well for me, though it did initially confuse on of my players.  Being that the only RPGs he'd really played before this were D&D and Pathfinder, a game that didn't have tactical combat yet still made some use of maps & minis threw him for a loop at first, but he quickly got over the lack of pre-set movement rates and strictly defined range categories.

i did the same thing with the session i ran, for lowhrick or however u spell it i used tarfil, for theVEX i used the proxy mini from force unleashed, for pash i used human scoundel, for sasha i used rebel leader from the hoth set, and for Trex i used trandoshan scavenger.

Human scoundrel looks exactly like pash. I couldnt find a good one for Mathus or Oskara though, id use maybe ayla secura but i dont have her.

For teemo obviosuly jabba the hutt. For the security droids i used basic battle droids. It would be nice if FFG would make SW minis but lookin at their qaulity of minis if they did they would be expensive and i think theyd only focus on main characters rather then swamp us with non uniques the way WOTC did.
