I have been tinkering with a foam detonator that you can throw around with no damage and came up with this.

I make them in 3 pieces if you just want to do halves like clone wars.

You should make some to be used for MCCC, kids could toss them at stuff kinda like the blast range.

Perhaps an new Game? Maybe Trade federation ships standups with Holes in them? Toss the det through the hole?

great idea, i will make 6 or so for that, what could they throw them at? Like Duck said holes in the standees? oh oh oh the thermal exhaust port right below the main port.

How heavy are they? would they knock over a 8" standup of a vehicle?
Kind of a starwars version of the carnival Ball throw?.
We could have droid tanks spider droids stuff like that .
it is usualy more fun to knock stuff over than just toss through a hole( well for me at least).

Put velcro on them and see if they will stick to stuff.

They are pretty solid, they are 3 lb cell foam , real close to a Nerf ball, they throw well and are bouncy has heck, real durable so far. The kids and I have been playing Thermal ball all day and they are holding up great.
Kids love knocking stuff over but someone has to put them back up again
