Description
As an alternative scene, there are 3 Steelpecker birds at in 3 different poses in this set along with a damaged Stormtrooper helmet. Steelpeckers are a non-sentient species of carrion bird native to the planet Jakku. The birds are very ragged and mangy in appearance, with scraggly black feathers. They have strong beaks and talons that were tipped with iron and sharpened on scrap. They feed mainly on metal, to which they were drawn by its magnetic signature. To digest the metal they consumed, Steelpeckers stored vanadium, osmiridium, and corundum in their gizzards. Named for their diet, these birds are very useful commodities to scavengers, who collected their carcasses and guano. Steelpickers were nocturnal. They are printed from high quality ABS-like resin and the models will need painting.
