Box from Model Hobbies just arrived - excellent cost and delivery time, so will definitely use them again.
This figure is a Master Box  1/24 scale, and is part of a set of 6 kits that can be placed together to form a bar scene like the bar in the first Star Wars film. 
This will NOT be done like that but will be placed in a situation with scratch built damaged road blocks for him to be peering round.

I have used Model Hobbies and also Creative Models, both seem pretty good.

Road block cut to size, second photo shows damage to blocks and then each one cut in half, third photo shows glued together again with some plastic mesh inserted into the middle.  When dry and solid will coat with vallejo rough grey pumice and then paint - will also RUST the wires in the center of the blocks.

Base made from a section of MDF and then a section of foam added to this. 
The foam has had cracks cut into it and then covered with Vallejo black lava.  Will let it dry for 24 hours and then paint with different grey's.
