Thanks guys. Scoutdad, my wife got them for me and I am not sure where she got them. The only thing the container had written on it was green fuzz balls.

I love those buildings! Brilliant idea.

Sometimes I think there may be more minis terrain in one Home Depot than in all the world's hobby shops.

I've used the blue plastic electrical boxes from Home Depot as bunkers in my WH40K games before... but never that many. Pretty cool set-up there.

Cool, you stuck the people in the cars. Was it hard to bend them and stick them in or did you cut them in half? They match up great.

How much damage does the car do when it hits a mini? Now we need hitpoints for the vehicles, speed rates, etc.

What is that Andorian all the way on the right side doing?

Is he making an obscene gesture at his Romulan opponents across the battlefield?
