Bill's been looking around for parts to build MegaCorp at home and came across this;

Spaceships!
I know the son unit would love to use these to play (insert various space ship combat games)! I can see using them for fighters and divide them up into each faction by color. :-)

The silver and gold ones inthe center look very sathar-ish.
I'm not overly fond of Zeb's Guide...nor do I have any qualms stating why. Tongue out

Shadow, maybe the toy maker copied your fighter article in SFman. :-)

LOL, nah...none of that looks familiar.

But that upper right one looks like the new series Cylon Raider:



the top center one reminds me of Boba Fett's Slave 1:



and the left/center one looks like IG-88's ship (the IG-2000):

I'll try again after my reply was eaten.

These are rip-offs of the old ICE Silent Death miniatures. They are 2-3 times larger than the originals and come in horrid bendy plastic. You can still get the originals from EM-4 here in the UK (scroll down):
 and the metal versions from Metal Express, along with the Silent Death rules: http://www.metal-express.net/

The ships are, L to R by row,  (G= gold, S=Silver)

Top Row: Teal Hawk (G) Spirit Rider (S), Talon (flying backwards)(G)
2nd Row: Lance Electra (upside down)(S), Salamander (S), Pit Viper (G)
3rd Row: Thunderbird (G), Hellbender (S)
Bottom Row: Blizzard (S) and the sublime and deadly Night Hawk (G) with six splatterguns and a meld laser just ready to ruin your day.

If you are looking for a good, fun, fast starfighter game I heartily reccomend Silent Death. It's a blast.
