Star Wars Miniatures
Starship BattlesStarter Set and Booster
The
Star War Miniatures gaming experience reaches a whole new level!
Star Wars Starship Battles is a new collectible miniatures game based on the popular
Star Wars Miniatures Game. Long anticipated by fans,
Starship Battles presents authentic starship figures from across all eras of the
Star Wars saga. This 40-figure set is made up exclusively of space vehicles of all sizes, from starfighters to capital ships, all represented in relative scale. The starter game also contains two exclusive, non-randomized figures not available anywhere else, the Super Star Destroyer Executor and the Mon Calamari Star Defender Viscount.
Drawn from the popular films, computer games, comics, and novels, the starships in this set are presented in relative scale to each other and not scale with other
Star Wars Miniatures figures.
