LSP_Ray Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Wow! A 1/32nd Tie Fighter! That will be huge! I used to watch UFO. So long ago I don't remember the vehicles! Alain Gadbois, LSP_Matt and LSP_K2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee in Texas Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 They’re going all in on sci-fi. I like that early Star Trek stuff. Alain Gadbois and LSP_K2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LSP_K2 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 I'll be down for the big ol' TIE fighter. Alain Gadbois and LSP_Matt 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firefly7 Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 Same for me, a must buy. as long as it's 1/32 ( I'll also take 1/35 as a second choise ). Also the X-wing. But what I really want is a Starfury. Cheers. LSP_Matt and Alain Gadbois 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neo Posted July 20, 2023 Share Posted July 20, 2023 There potential, i was going to get their razor crest since the revell one was unoptanium in North America. But its good but not good enough, managed to get the Revel in the end. In the video all the older kits they showed i wonder if it just rebox of the old stuff or new tooling? Atat atst bwing ect The biggest icon we are missing is the tydirium shuttle ideally in Bandai quality at 1/72 to pair with the xwing and ties Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others I don’t know. Alain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also the X-wing. But what I really want is a Starfury. Cheers. It is 1/32, as written on the box. But scale doesn’t mean much as it was never built full size. Any dimension given is just an estimate. The old Tie Fighter kit stated as 1/48 is 15cm tall (just a tad under 6’’). At 13’’, the new kit could be more around 1/22 scale if the previous scale was correct.

Maxim61 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 (edited) She was a real looker back then and the main reason as a teenager I watched the show. Edited July 22, 2023 by Maxim61 Alain Gadbois 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geedubelyer Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 (edited) UFO was so cool. All of the vehicles looked great (with the possible exception of the moonbase interceptors) The RF-101 VooDoo always reminds me of Sky1 with it's chisel nose. I had a diecast SHADO mobile as a kid. Working tracks and a rotating weapon bay. I got hours of fun from that in the soil of my back garden Happy days. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
