It looks superb as a ship I have to say which is generally the angle where I'm coming at X-Wing from at the moment.

After a near fatal crash durring a swoop race caused by Solo, Dengar was restored, cyberneticly enhanced and most importantly had most of his emotions except for hate, anger etc. surgically removed by the empire. After several encounters with boba fett as rivals they eventually become on again off again partners. It was Dengar who rescued a badly wounded Boba Fett… Read more »
I would buy the Mist Hunter just for Zuckus and 4-Lom – “Dude, we are Bounty-hunters!”
