When my younger brother was playing Attacktix, he pulled Wicket's stick back, let go and...nothing happened. Wicket was officially broken. So me and my older brother Ataru decided to make him into a custom. After some thought we deciced on an Ewok on a hang glider. The figure is worth ten points because he throws such a wimpy log, and he is so easy to knock down. Our figure's Attacktix class is specialist, and his Star Wars class is Ewok. You won't see this in the picture because we haven't made a new label yet. His speed is eight tix, and you can pop him off of his stand. He is connected to a string like one on the Boba Fett "flying" figure. This way, you can "fly" him around to get a better shot, as long as you don't drag the base. I've posted some pics below.

Hmm... I don't think this one turned out that well. Something about the wings being huge targets and the base being so small, also the log not doing much damage... it looks cool, though. What if we built an Ewok catapault instead?

i think its looks good. what is the red thing is it suppose to be a log? in the movie corret me if im wrong i thought they dropped rocks on the guys heads so maybe like a good way to balance it out would be 40 points then two chirpa rocks now that would be really cool but idk i really like it alot tho

Thanks, I'm glad you like it! Yes, it's a log from an old train set. The Ewok on the Hanglider did drop rocks in the movie, and we tried for a rock a few times, but it didn't work and we had to go with the log. However, we have managed to fit a Chief Chirpa rock into our Ewok's hands, and he does a pretty good job of dropping it on people! Unfortunately, he's not that powerful, and we've taken him apart to build something else. Hopefully our next one will turn out better.

maybe you could try a chirpa instead of a wicket then he would have the spring for the rock to throw that might work

Yeah, a Chirpa would work. Unfortunately, I don't own one... both my brothers do, but they're not quite ready to destroy them...  |

I have a catapult from the harry ptter quidditch board game, so if i painted jabba the hutt marbles to look like rocks, that might turn out well as a ewok catapulter!
