Thunnus Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Awesome Falcon builds, especially the BIG PG kit! I have a 1/144 Bandai Falcon on the shelf that I need to finish someday! Uncarina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn M Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 what kit # was your 1/144 one? They both look amazing! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloorwestSiR Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 Carl, I must yield to the superior plushness! I shared a Shapeways link to the same figures. They look amazing, and it is indeed the price holding me back, which I know is funny considering the cost of the kit! For the 1/144 build the Green Strawberry photoetch worked perfectly, and I used Quickshine (a Future floor polish alternative) to attach. One challenge is that the parts are not keyed, so I had to line them up by eye. Cheers, Tom Tom, I missed your link originally so didn't realize I was posting the same thing. There's a member over on Britmodeler who has them and says they're really nice but not to bother with C3P0 as the kit version is just as good. Thanks for the heads-up on the PE fit. It's always great to hear from those who get to be trail blazers. Carl Uncarina 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncarina Posted December 28, 2017 Author Share Posted December 28, 2017 what kit # was your 1/144 one? They both look amazing! Shawn, thank you! Here is a link for the kit: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B014VTPQ22/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 For some reason this is listed as $30 more than the price I paid in mid-November. Hopefully you can find it cheaper. Cheers, Tom Shawn M 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad to share any info about these builds; your previous work has been a great reference for me. Cheers, Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BloorwestSiR Posted December 28, 2017 Share Posted December 28, 2017 Tom, Great info as always and I'm glad i can help. I just found this link which shows Bandai is going to come out with a less expensive version of the PG Falcon. http://bandai-hobby.net/sw/jp/products/millenniumfalcon_72_standard.html It looks like they're leaving out the lights and maybe the PE.
