The Boonta Eve Classic

Long before he became the hero of the Clone Wars or even a Jedi at that, young Anakin Skywalker had already become a legend among the people of the Outer Rim. When he participated in the Boonta Eve Classic, the famous pod race on his home planet Tatooine, no-one had granted him the slightest chance of even making it to the finish line. But in a sensational race, he managed to defeat the notorious champion Sebulba and ended one of the longes winning streaks in Podracing history. He vanished from Podracing as quickly as he had come to it, but the name Skywalker remained known in the Outer Rim ever since and inspired many young racers to try their luck on the track. None of them could have known, that their idol would go on to be the scourge of the galaxy, being only known by the name of Darth Vader.

I always wanted to build a podracing scene and The Skywalker Saga Collab presented me with the perfect opportunity. Also, this was a great chance to show off all the cool alien species figures in my collection.
