The Battle of Hoth....

The Battle of Hoth was recreated in the back garden today before the kids went to school. Jr was the Empire and I was the Rebels....

Luckily enough I was there to capture it on my camera































Just to add, Boba is still MIA and will have to wait for the big thaw before a rescue team is sent out, so if you want a free vintage Boba just raid the back garden tonight :lol: :lol:

Can I come over?

Good to see Walrusman getting in on the act - no surprise he didn't make it though, not exactly camouflaged for Hoth warfare

Absolutely brill JC top pics!

I wondered what Walrus was up to. The others could have used him as a distress flare!
I love that upward shot of the AT-AT.
And all.......................before school

nice one chubbs, can i bring my snowspeeder round and play!?

That is freakin awesome 8)

Nice one Chris. Looks like you had a right blast.
I bet you enjoyed it more than junior juniorchubb!!!!!

Hehe,love the photos of the approaching walkers!

Great stuff JC - looks like loads of fun

Damn, what a great battle :shock: nice pictures 8)

Haha! Liking At-At commander strapped to the roof :lol:

nice one goono, great to see the camera being put to good use must remember to have words with Bailey about the victors of this epic battle :roll: who needs a sleigh to have fun in the snow

Aaaah, now this takes me back to my own Garden of Hoth battle from back in the day...


The rest of my old pics, for those who perhaps haven't seen them, can (I hope) be seen here -

Absolutely brilliant. Love the 'Imperial troops have entered the base' pic, the AT-AT towers over your house!
Good arrows JC!

I love it when it snows, everyone seems to dick about in it.

Some may remember these from last year or so:

I have to say alll those pics look fantastic. Wish I could pick up the courage to flaunt my star wars affliction and get out in the snow with my toys.

Cheers for the comments lads, it was good fun but we ran short on time. Dropped the missus at work at 6.30 (she can't drive in the snow :lol: ) and was supposed to wake up Jr at 7. I fell asleep on the sofa and he woke me up.

Anyway we got out sharpish and got to it, it was good fun. I don't think I ever got round to doing this as a kid (Mumbo will know his memory is better than mine) so I did have fun.

Cheers for the Wally comments, they did make me chuckle. He did stick out a bit, but it was good to see him joining the rebels and turning over a new leaf.

Those vintage shots from back in the day are awesome Q, and that AT AT army is crazy ODB, the box scene is classic


Glad you all liked 'The Battle of Hoth'

Boba Fett is still MIA, shame he doesn't get on better with Han otherwise he might have been rescued by now :lol:
