My list,
(as suggested by Payney on FB) X-Wing Cockpit, or even a whole ship.
Falcon Cockpit (make it open and with a backdrop behind the door would look awesome for photos)
Y-Wing cockpit
Landspeeder (from Episode IV)
Moister vaporator
Jedi Starfighter (Episode II / Clone Wars)
......

......
Hoth Backdrop
Tantive IV Backdrop
Falcon Rec table and booth
Hoth Turrets
Wampa and or Tauntauns

A working (obviously not a real) landspeeder was going to be my next (over however many years) build now that R2 is where he is at. I have been researching it for a while now.

Full scale ships I think for us, are a bit out of the question, due to their size, and space we would need to have them on display.

The cockpit idea would basically be 2 dimensional, with the exception of the joystick. Whack a Rubies bucket on, and you're away!!!

.....
Jedi Council Chamber (backdrop with a couple of seats)

That's all my headache induced brain can think of for the moment. I'll let someone else make suggestions now. Tongue

In some cases a Printed backdrop will do, such as the Falcon cockpit or X-wing cockpit. However, a frame built one would be best for the Tantive and Hoth.

Something with handles would be good, and a pole in the bottom too so it stays and doesn't blow in the wind. anyone know what the Redbacks use? and/or where they got it?

I think we should start with something from Tatooine so that people will associate us with our brand (base) more easily. Going with a backdrop would be a good start and we can than add 3D props like R2, landspeeder, etc in front of it.

My suggestions would be:
1) a scene of the sandcrawler where the Jawas are selling C3PO and R2 to Luke and Owen.
2) the outside of theMos Eisley Cantina
3) the Hanger bay with the Millennium Falcon

As for the Banners we should also talk to Baytrooper and get some of those banners he made done for the Base.

Actually there is a good point. As a set backdrop, the Sandcrawler tracks can be free standing without a frame to support them at the back. as the tracks themselves would hold the set up.
