| Hi I looked into the Skiff Guard Vibro Axe Guide http://www.imperialgunnery.com/thestaffsaxessection.htm I found this Skiff Guard Vibro Axe in my own collection but I can't find this variant. Does any of you have such a variant ? or do any of you know what figure it is for ? First I thought it was for Lando Skiff Guard but it is not a deep circle on the weapon.  |

| It looks like the V1 mould to me, having a circle on the protruding part on the staff. The depth of the circle may vary, deep, shallow, even protruding. I think this was the point where the plastic was injected into the mould.   |

| This one is then protruding. The circle is highter than the part of the staff where it is placed on. But I am glad that this one is for Lando Skiff Guard I was missing some of them |

Ohhhhh I thought V1 was for lando, V2 weequay and v3 was for klaatu. Why do they then write it on the weapon guide ? Yes it is cool to have something there is not on the guide |

 A small misunderstanding Lars, the guide was just listing the different figures which came with a vibro axe, using numbered bullets. It had no direct link to the different moulds which were discussed afterwards. Maybe it is a good idea to use bullets without a number in the TIG guide, it might be confusing to more collectors. - TIG Guide wrote:

The Skiff Guard Vibro Axe with the following figures -
1, Lando Skiff Guard
2, Weequay
3, Klaatu

Yes it is cool to have something there is not on the guide I read it like that at first mate, they are referring to the number of figs the vibro axe was relesed with. Like 1,Nickto 2,barada 3, Yak. Just coincidence. I have a Bossk weapon some where that isn't on the gunnery, Looks and feels original but a different mold. |
