I hope the paneled/armored version of the Y wing is made. That was my intent on pulling back that thread from 2009.
It seems I was misunderstood. It wouldn't hurt to have some variation on the Y wings available.

[StarSlayer]

I did some research, you asked for an armored variant on Feb 2009 that was on page 7 of what was until recently a 9 page thread.  So basically two plus years and 53 replies later you figured folks could automagically deduce what you meant from:

"Just a reminder for brandx0"

Not to be an complete ass but

[FekLeyrTarg]

From which novel, comic or game is this panaled version if I may ask? It's the first time that I hear about that one.

[Commander Zane]

When I saw that bump I originally thought the request was for the BTL-B variant used in the Clone Wars.

Not the first time for me. My memories about it are a bit fuzzy because it was a long time ago (in this galaxy however), but I think that canonically, the paneled of the Y wing was the original one, but was dropped for some reason by the rebels (possibly because it was faster to modify when unpaneled).

Again, I don't recall where this is supposed to come from, but I'm 70% sure the paneled version is EU canon. Gotta ask my brother next time I see him.

[bobbtmann]

It's from the cross-section book of star wars ships.

*Ahem...



It's been done before, it might be done again.

I wondered how long it would take for someone to dig that up.  Didn't want to spoil the scavenger hunt for someone though.

[brandx0]

Aw if you're going to dig up my old work, at least dig up the finished version! hehe

[GT-Keravnos]

Thank you Brandx0. Seems I missed this somehow.

Oh God, I LOVE that old model! I can't wait 'till you can redo that beauty!

Forgive me if I or someone else has already asked this before, but were you planning on creating the old BTL-B model? She's a sexy beast, too.

[Dragon]

That is the old model?
I don't think it needs redoing.

[Angelus]

while the model is awesome, it certainly needs redoing. As this one was destroyed a while back together with other Alliance and Imperial ships as well as Brands HDD.

[Dragon]

Well then.
I think that the current Y-W could be modified a bit to make a model for this version.

[chief1983]

It takes a bit more than a small modification.  A large chunk of the ship at least had to be replaced, as the Y-wing we know from the movies doesn't actually fit within the paneled version.

[brandx0]

Yeah, I think this time around though I'll make it fit.  Toy around a little bit with the paneling so that it's actually a shell without bits poking out of it from the internals

Am I the only one who gets shivers when he thinks of what this and destroyable subsystems could achieve? You could blow panels of a Y-Wing!

Yep.
