Maxim61 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 (edited) Looks to be a pretty good model and well thought out. I hope they do the X Wing. Edited July 22, 2023 by Maxim61 coogrfan, BloorwestSiR, Tony T and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alain Gadbois Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 Very impressive kit, in design detail and size! Thanks! Alain LSP_Matt 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Confusionreigns178 Posted July 22, 2023 Share Posted July 22, 2023 I wonder if this is a re-box of the big Revell Tie-fighter? Or a brand-new mold? Chris. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brand new mold. Besides, I don’t remember Revell doing a 1/32 regular TIE Fighter. MPC did a 1/32 Darth Vader TIE, the TIE Advanced x1.

Finn Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 A 1/32 Y-Wing and TIE Bomber would be nice as well. Jari firefly7, BloorwestSiR, chrish and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it counts as a "regular" TIE, but Revell do a First Order fighter, that sits about 12 inches tall when built. Cheers. Chris.

chrish Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Even at 12 inches tall they’d take up less “horizontal built shelf space” than a 1/48 twin or 4 engine aircraft. I may have to look into this, thanks for the post! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others quite the opposite. Modern Bandai kits (who previously had the contract for all Star Wars kits) are the absolute pinnacle of IM kits for fit and engineering; they fit SO well in fact that a lot of the glue together kits don't need glue at all. Multiple colors on a single sprue, engineering easily in par Tamiya, and fit as good or better that some of the WnW kits I've put together. Try building a modern Bandai kit, and you will definitely be asking yourself why the hell they dont make aircraft kits! If they did I may never buy another brand of kit again.

Completely agree.Bandai kits make Tamiya kit feel like old 1/48 hasegawa jets in comparasing. From my understanding all the Bandai Star Wars is going to be distributed/reboxed by Revell Germany chrish, Out2gtcha and coogrfan 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
