This widget is great. It reminds me of these old three-fold cards you could get when I was very young, with dry-rub down transfers of Planet of the Apes or something to make your own scene.

But this is more like the vinyl colorforms, as you can re-use them!

I would say the only improvement I can think of is (if it's possible) to give the vehicles an adjustable scale, so you can set up more elaborate squadrons with dimension and depth!

But I realize that many of these vehicles are likely captured from the DVDs and therefore the scale is probably getting about as large as it can get. The ability to vary the scale from 50%-100% of what you have here would allow soooo much variety.

Also, maybe some of the droids? Yoda's hut? The lightsaber-training orb, for instance. Is it possible to make a widget hover and move, then fire a random bolt you need to click near to block, or your e-mail gets deleted, one unread message at a time?
