Subject: Where to source replacement movement dials?

I've managed to mislay one of my Tie-Fighter movement dials and I'm wondering if anyone makes spare ones?
FFG do a replacement parts services, however they will only replace missing or damaged parts, not ones that have been lost or suffered normal wear and tear. So unless I can find someone who sells them I'm stuck with a Tie-Fighter I can never use. Are there any 3rd party sellers who make them out of plastic or MDF? eBay is normally full of these sorts of things but I've sofar had no luck.

It still wouldn't hurt to contact FFG. I know players in the past have contacted them about replacements for things they don't sell and they've been gracious about helping out and sending one along.

Try contacting FFG if you haven't already. All I hear are stories about how wonderful FFG has been in replacing parts, nevermind what their policy says.
Litko makes a universal sort of acrylic dial.

28mm/30mm paper models are cheap, easy and fun!

I'll give contacting them a go.
I actually just found this, so I can always print one out as a replacement.

Just give FFG a note and be up front. They really do have an excellent reputation. Hopefully there isn't too much taking the piss, so they can maintain the service as it is.

Yeah, I accidentally crumpled a card once, and I asked FFG if there's any way to buy a replacement (I fully confessed that it was my fault) and they just straight up sent me one for free.

Well I got an E-mail back from FFG saying they where currently out of stock of Tie-Fighter bits (The factories are probably busy with wave 6) but as soon as they where back in they would send me one.
Hats off to FFG.

Just a quick update. FFG sent me a new dial free of charge, it arrived last week.
Top customer service.
