Looking good.
I can't remember how much the EFX Collectibles version was.

Those look fantastic, especially the Red 4.
I'd love to have one of these, but I'd have to sell my pyro X-Wing kit and my Anigrand Star Destroyer to fund it. Decisions, decisions...
Wow wouldnt be the first thing I would wanna spend my $750 on though it is still a great kit, hopefully they offer it a bit cheaper without the armature
the price is a little bit high ... so I'm too sad but I can't afford it at the moment
I was really excited about this and then became very sad when I saw the price. I just can't justify it but will enjoy seeing buildups of it.
yea, price definetely very high. And then comes shipping and probably customs fees too. Awesome kit and beautiful, but I think I will have to pass on this too
Ouch .. I would have loved to get another one to sit beside my Red5 .. but this is too rich for me!
Hopefully, this is with armature and without will be a few bucks less!

And you guys thought MY Kits were expensive!
HA!

Hi guys!
We will see what can we do about the price. Maybe we can lower it a little without the armature. It's too expensive to commission just one armature at a time so we would had to leave the armature version for later.
But now for the picture I promised.
Here is the Rebel Pilot. The Goggles will be made apart in orange transparent resin. As soon as we cast the first ones I'll post some more pics.
I am building an R5 and R4-M9 astromech units that will be ready tomorrow.

Everything about this model is truly amazing.
What armature? Will it be the kind that sticks in the back and allows you to open and close the wings? Or is it just something more like a stand that sticks in the bottom like I see in the pictures?
Hello friends!
Here is a video test of the x-wing fighter Rodmart΄s RED 5 ... next Tuesday new information about this beautiful kit!

Guess i must be the only one that this the price is fair. Xwing all ready a pricey build (then again what studio scale isnt) you would end paying alot more then what this kit will cost in the long run.
I personally dont see a problem paying a higher end price if the quality is there. The only time i do have a problem paying a premium is when the product is cheap or quality isnt up to what it should be.
Right or wrong, it's hard not to compare it to other studio scale kits available. The Salzo kit is a whole lot less. I wanted this new kit more to have another--and different--SS kit in my collection. I recognize that the masters for the Salzo are already done and (probably) paid for, but parts of the V3 were not done all that long ago. The recently available pyro kit was also a whole lot cheaper. My memory is fuzzy, but both kits were about $300 or $400, right? From what I see, this new kit "seems" better, but not twice as much. As I asked above, what exactly is the armature? If it's similar to other armatures that stick in the back and connects to the wings and allows you to open and close the wings, then I take it all back. It's totally worth it. But if it's the stand I see in the pics, that's not an armature. I'm not trying to bag on this new thing, I think it's really nice. I just also think the Salzo kits in my stash are really nice. If my funds were unlimited, I'd order 5 of these at this price. I think it's a nice kit, but I can't personally (to myself and to my wife) justify anything close to this price considering what else I could get, if I wanted another SS X that bad.Aurora said:
Actually, my first reaction to this price was, "Wait, and didn't they say it's not complete, that you have to buy material for the cannons? Jeez, what would it cost with those included?"
I was not trying to compare kits its just a a general case. Every kit you mentioned are very good very accurate to the original.
There's something about the proportions of this kit that seem really good to me. Just the right feeling for the wing opening and hull shapes. Nice job!
Seems like we need a title for this kit. I've missed it if there is one. And certainly the makers have full right to do this. But it would be nice to refer to it as something. Everyone knows what the CC kit, and the Salzo V1, V2, and V3 (and I somehow recall a V3.5, but I could be crazy), and the pyro kit. Should this be the "revisited" kit?
