As a kid I had a Prune Face figure. I always figured he had been part of Jabba's palace menagerie, and hadn't realised that he was one of the commandos that went to Endor. He is actually a Dresselian named Orrimaarko with a fine combat record and a dislike of human prejudice against aliens within the rebellion. He disliked the fact that Han Solo was chosen to lead the Endor mission (just more human bias and bs), so it must be particularly galling for him that in this set of Rebel Commandos from Fantasy Flight Games for Star Wars Legion, he isn't even the unit leader!

| Rebel Commandos, ready to go |

| Stupid humans - I should be the leader! |

| Nope! I got the binox, so I'm in charge, right people? |
These guys were a lot of fun to paint. The cloaks and coats are in Russian Green and the uniform is in German Field Grey.
I'm currently half way through the next unit of rebel troopers, who have a more dust planet theme to them.
If you want to know more about Prune Face, you could do a lot worse than check him out on
Youtube.

Beautiful! Thinking about getting some legion figures to run some Rise of the Empire era games using the Fistful of Lead rules.
ReplyDeleteThey are lovely figures to paint. I'd say go for it. The other option is the oop Wizkids pre-painted Star Wars, although they are starting to get pricey, places like strikezone can still provide them.
DeleteThese look great, Nathan! You are cranking through the figures.
ReplyDeleteIt's been a good run so far!
DeleteNice. Hey - Are you in Rotorua or is that another Natholeon?
ReplyDeleteThanks Brian. Nope, I'm pretty sure I'm the only Natholeon, the one that sold you those Zulus!
DeleteThose look great, nice to see the some variety rather than beastly humans... :-)
ReplyDeleteCheers
