Star Wars X-Wing "Retaliation" (by Ryan Gallion -- 2006)

[OBrienMagic]

i love it! haha my only complaint is that the tie interceptor was not developed by sienar fleet systems until 3 aby. long after the x-wing was developed. lol

[Sacrengard]

I enjoyed it :D great!

That pilot is RUSSIAN

It's actually a Chinese (replica) helmet that I used.

It only cost around $40, while the official USAF HGU-55 helmets cost around $300-400...

Naturally it was a pretty easy decision, I can handle having a star on my helmet for $300.

Agreed on THAT, Ryan! For BOP I and II... we had all SORTS of things going on where costs needed to stay to a bare minimum...

After all... hey... you funded your project entirely on your own... and I was doing the very same thing!!

If I had bought "real" Stormtrooper helms for my five actors, it would have been something like $1500 instead of $150. Not kidding.

[greytale]

[pablofallenjedi]

i got your video message bro, it works fine on my end!

[santan25]

Haha, those TIE's made a nooby mistake

[araiker]

awesome vid, only problem with it is the interceptor is supposed to fire from its wing tips not the pilot bubble. but still awesome work

[gallion311]

Hey guys, it's Ryan...blue leader himself.

Thanks for all the comments so far, glad people are still enjoying this little project. I made it back in 2005 and premiered on January 1, 2006, can't believe I didn't put it on Youtube for all that time.

I've thought about doing a second one, with some more action, but I've just been too busy...I'll get to it one of these days.

Thanks again!

[soflabob]

pretty cool.

[Ram21s]

Sweet test, I would love to see more!

[shorty1k]

That really was awesome. I loved when the Interceptor's pilot flew out. I gotta wonder, what the hell kind of brainless kamikaze maneuver we the left and right pilots trying? Silly clones.

[greytale]

I loved the pilot getting jettisoned into space as well, hehhe

It was great to work with Ryan in every way. I would love to work with him again... we'll see how it goes! Both of us have been really busy, and we just got in contact again via e-mail.

Dude, that was hot.

[darthjinstu]

Wow, that's awesome, it could be made into a pretty awesome web series, you guys should seriously think about that.
