That detail is just stupidly brilliant.

I don't like how the speeder guy has big gaps in his shoulders/arm area front on when he is sitting on bike.... Anyone else notice the huge gaps?
have a look at front shots Also really wish the why was in 1/48
other than that they both look good
Fine molds did a 1/72 so was just hoping for different scale . 1/48 is nicer for figures
Speeder guy pistol reminds me of a spud gun I had when I was a kid
Thought I'd post this here for your amusement as well:
I wonder how much Bandai would charge for the 1/1 scale Stormtrooper:

Yeah BIG helmetsYou know what they say about Stormtroopers with big feet? <nudge, nudge, wink, wink, say no more>
Are the yellow and gray stripes on the Y colored plastic or decals/stickers? Both would seem like really awkward parts. I was assuming, while unpainted, the kit pictured had decals/stickers attached. That being said, this practice of doing colored plastic for markings is why many feel these are over-engineered. It's also kind of awkward to use colored plastic where it's feasible and then use decals where it's not (e.g. the 72nd X-wing that requires decals for the wing markings but colored plastic on the fuse). Luckily, the kits aren't ridiculously expensive, so you don't feel like you're paying a lot for stuff you don't want. Also, luckily, the parts go together so dang tightly that it's very hard to really notice the over-engineering when it's built. (I only have the 72nd X and the 48th SS kits, and I've only partially built the X, and I can't really tell except that I know how it goes together.)As awesome as these things are, WHY do they insist on doing different colours instead of decals for certain areas?
