We appreciate your interest in the class guys. We are working on it but need to make a few final decisions before we can announce. The way it's looking so far, the force will be strong in this class. I will post about it as soon as I can.

Click to expand...

Technically only three Falcons and all from last year from what I can see. I took my 1/72 FineMolds Falcon and my 1/144 Falcon done as the Stellar Envoy (blue stripes). Paul Heaberlin brought his 1/144 from Des Moines, IA. My big Falcon took a gold along with "Best Star Wars" and "Best Vehicle First Place". My little one took either a silver or a gold, I can't remember which. Paul's also took a silver I believe. While Falcon turnout has been light, quality has been good.

Since I can't make it to this year's Jerseyfest, part of me has been tempted to perhaps take the DeAgostini one for 2017. But transporting something that big and heavy will pretty much require a road trip. At least the FineMolds models were small enough to transport in my suitcase via air and they survived transport out and back with no damage.

Here's the Stellar Envoy thread:
