totally right!? these are awesome!, but, if you're like me and want to light the docking collars, you need to either hog out the inside, or drill large holes almost all the way, then pin holes for your fiber optics...just use a drill press pre-set depth! I've also got some tiny styrene rod stock from the hobby store to finish them even more...be looky just like the pic you posted. I have to admit, I'm borderline giddy about this build!! LOL
Package arrived today. I won't be doing a full "piece by piece" review, but let me just give one of many, many examples of how astonishing and intricate this kit is engineered.
First I'd like to say that it is totally mind-boggling at the level of detail that the original "ILM" team built into the original 5 FT. Falcon model (which most you never see on film).
Secondly, I'd like to congratulate HH Miniatures for faithfully replicating the designs of "ILM". Just have a Look -
(I also have a side-by-side comparison of stock kit parts)
