Nice finds. I'm still not sure about these, but some of those pieces look good.

[sergiurusu]

Thanks for the pics Cy! I have to agree with JT: some of them look really cool, but I'm stil not sure about all of them. I might be interested in the AF sized ones, even if only the Capital ships are that size

[Mothman]

preview 3 is out:

Photos of A-wing and Milennium Falcon:

Is it me or do they both look weird?

[sicqnus]

Same industrialisation process as the old Micro-Machines (same factory ? Could be...). Same soft plastic badly molded and same layers of paint ...badly applied. Would have been great ten years ago in 1995 as the MM were. Looks a little "vintage" nowadays.
They are pricey, hard to find and not really attractive. I could be interested by some of them but to me they are cheaply made minis sold for big bucks... I still need to see the final products to be sure but the Jedi Starfighter and the X-wing are jokes... Even the MM were better and it was as previously said, ten years ago.

[mabudonicus]

If any of the actual sculpts look REALLY good, there's an easy (albeit it poisonous if you're not careful) way to clean the stupid paint off, I can detail it later once it can be determined if it's even worth it... any idea what the booster pack price will be?? if it's cheap enough, I might get me one sleeve and check 'em out when they hit :beard:Isobaws&

[Mothman]

In the UK it's £15 (but you can get it cheaper if you buy 6 cases or look around - I've seen it for £12)

And the Starter Pack I've seen for £20 (cheapest £18)

[JediTricks]

Yeah, they're both warped and fat in an odd way - the fat part could be photography, but the warped part is materials.

These aren't removable from their bases either, are they.

[Mothman]

where there's a will, there's a way

[itsme]

if the material they used still remains the same, there'll be great disappointment to some of us. My WOTC AT-RT is still "kotow-ing" to its Titanium 3" counterpart after months of putting its body right up. ....... hopeless. Nothing I do can put it up straight.

[JediTricks]

where there's a will, there's a wayAnd where there's a won't?

[RJarvis]

And where there's a won't?

there's a "nay"

:crazed:

[sergiurusu]

They should have used the sturdier plastic they already used on the Hailfire Droid for example, instead of this bad warping plastic...:sad:

[RJarvis]

preview #4 is out...trade federation battleship goes part-way to restoring my interest...nice detail, but the tri-droid fighter is a pass

[BountyHunterScum]

I wouldn't mind having the Super Star Destroyer.
