REVIEW: New Studio Scale X-Wing Revisited

moffeaton · 12-02-2011, 08:40 PM

I just got my kit today, fresh off the truck from Chile!

It was packed EXCEPTIONALLY well, and I'll let the pics speak for themselves (a more detailed review will come later if any one wants it):

Diagnosis? AWESOME.

Ceric Neesh · 12-02-2011, 08:42 PM

That kit is BEAUTIFUL. And if I had ANY modeling skill whatsoever, your pics alone would have convinced me to get it.

Bootlegger137 · 12-02-2011, 08:45 PM

Kitty seems to be happy about it.

The detail looks incredible. I look forward to the more detailed review. There...now you HAVE to write it.

jedimaster · 12-02-2011, 08:57 PM

moffeaton · 12-02-2011, 09:04 PM

No bubbles - it's insane.

I'm leaning towards Red 4 - so I can use the domed droid! heh.

What a beautiful kit! Well done, Rodmart and Roback.

Robiwon · 12-03-2011, 06:13 AM

That looks freakin incredible! Love the droids. You going to have it finished for Wonderfest next year?

By the way, your cat looks like my Winky.

Rodmart85 · 12-03-2011, 09:00 AM

Hi everyone!
Jason, thank you very much for the trust you placed in us and for your valuable help.

We are really happy to see our first X-Wings in the RPF! And that both of them have arrived safely. I must say we were really worried about the packaging, and really afraid of the Edward Scissorhands working at some of the world's custom offices

.
I must say that Rodrigo and I spent a lot of time last year just learning how to fight those evil bubbles! So we are very happy that only a few ones per casts have survived this fight!

Right now, we are a little delayed with some kits because we are making new molds for the Fuselage and wings to ensure a quality continuity for the second wave of kits.

darthviper107 · 12-03-2011, 05:30 PM

Leon Kowalski · 12-04-2011, 11:01 AM

very nice looking kit

Ray22 · 12-04-2011, 07:52 PM

NICE! can't wait to see you build this Jason another future masterpiece.

3d-builder · 12-04-2011, 09:55 PM

I like the pilot sculpt......wondering if they would sell them separately?

LOL Did your cat just yawn and say....."Not another X-wing" LOL

major payne · 12-04-2011, 10:22 PM

Wow, these kits look fantasitc! Are they molded off the EFX model?

jedimaster · 12-04-2011, 11:32 PM

No............

Well, it is always better to overpack and assume the Sampsonite Gorilla will be handling this, then it is to underpack, mark the box "fragile" and assume the postal worker will treat the thing with kit gloved (because they SELDOM ever do that).

As for what I see there... WOW! I like it (and I wish I could afford it, but I am broke these days). It looks like it will be an enjoyable build for certain.

Watson · 12-05-2011, 01:10 PM

Beautiful kit, if I was still building I would be all over this

Hotshot · 12-05-2011, 01:14 PM

That packing job is inspiring. The kit is beyond words. Well done. Can't wait to see what you do with it Jason!!!

It means "Live Chile, damn it!"...roughly. Yeah, mierda would mean s**t if using the spanish I speak, but not the case here. This statement is actually a positive one.

Wow, such nice packaging!
