I got a mini AT-ST and Snowspeeder set #4486 from BricksWest this past weekend.
Fun to build the models on the floor during the Sunday evening activities at
BW03.
These are perfect little sets for road-trips. :-)
With my wife Amy driving, I had a chance to play a bit.
I disassembled the AT-ST and Snowspeeder models. Now, what to build?
The 2x3 wedge plates inspired the tri-fold wings of the shuttle.
Dark gray light-sabre bars.
A hinge and trans dark gray 1x2 plate for cockpit windscreen.
Now, just to try to make it all click together...
Here's the result of tinkering, clicking, and rebuilding:

Thanks for checking it out. Would be nice if this model could be white-winged.

PS: I'd like to learn of links to other custom MINI Star Wars models. I did
a quick rough search wondering if a Mini Imperial Shuttle has been showcased
on-line, but I didn't find anything. I should have gone to Ashley's Micro talk.
