part ID help please!

[darth_daniel]

Hello,
I´m currently exchanging some parts of my MR Y as I want to replicate the Smithonian Y, but I can´t ID the part(s) marked in this pic:

Unfortunately this is the best ref pic I could find. I don´t know if it´s just one part but my guess is it´s several...
I´d be grateful for any help or advise which kits to look for.
BTW I´ve looked through every single kit scan at studiscale.com but either it´s not there or I´m just blind...:redface

Many thanks in advance!

There are several parts in the cluster (used on all the hero Y's) & (also used in the Tie fighter cockpit) To the best of my knowledge none have been ID'd. A lack of clear reference of the area has been a problem.

I had the rounded "flap" part as coming from the Sealab, did you have any further joy finding that out Dan?

Tha base of the part is definately the same as what is used on the X wing, a three ribbed part used on the wings? Thought it was Hummel, but thats wrong, i know ive seen it pretty recently, which is annoying lol.

Looking more at this now, most of it appears to be sealab, including the main base part (Xwing three ribbed wing part).

Jamie...thing is, i bloomin cant :lol, because Dan sent me a pic of the FM Y, and from those parts, ive just narrowed it down as thats what the FM is based on i think, the 'sonian Y?
Hang on ill see if i can bag that pic he sent bro!

OK try this, i think this is Dans own FM Y wing, but the profile and shape of parts look Sealab to me!

I think it's several parts in a cluster Lee. I think the base may be a battleship turret/deck. I have a few cool pics but for the most part they just make me do this... :confused confused rolleyes:cry

[ralphee]

The bt44b bro? Never even noticed that part and i have three, its my favorite donor/ID kit LOL.
Dan, Jamie is THE Y guy, his knowledge on this bird is beyond my comprehension lol, anyways, if Jamie is comfirming that is from the Brabham, i can loan that part if you wanna cast it.

Wow, thanks for the input guys! And many thanks for the pic, that clears up quite much for me. So far I had no idea that what I marked in green in the pic ( http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v679/darth_daniel/?action=view&current=parts-1.jpg ) is just the same part(s) that are molded to the MR Y anyway, with the unidentified stuff simply attached on top.
I took a closer look at the rectangular plate and it seems to have some distinctive angles (marked in blue, I hope the pic doesn´t fool me) which are not similar to any part shown in the instructions for the sealab at studioscale. If it was the sealab...I think in this case I´d rather forget about it. :lol
Lee, many thanks for the offer, but so far I´ve never cast anything and don´t have the supplies for it, so unless someone tells me what the rectangular plate is the small part on top is useless for me. If I should find out I´ll contact you again, thanks.
I think Dan Satterthwaite should known the missing parts...anyone heard of him lately?
