Interesting re-tooling of the T-70.

I like the new colors of the new X-Wing; really bold. Toyetic, maybe, but appeals to my inner 10 year old.

I think it’s highly unlikely we’ll see kits from the Mandalorian. Bandai’s SW kits have only ever been from the films, never from ancillary series. I’m guessing their licence does not include anything outside the movies. I’d love to be wrong but the evidence is there.
I’m sure the Falcon is highly accurate as it’s based on the Ep. IX version.

Is it me or do those maintenance pits on the mandibles look different?
Does this make the 1/5000 SD Studio Scale?

From 'Sculpting a Galaxy':I thought I took a close up of the new dish yesterday, but appears I didn’t. I do enjoy the green X-Wing a lot, and yes they completely retooled it for the new colour separation.
I also asked for a TIE Bomber, and I got a wink and a smile in response.
Also the guys are super proud of the Star Destroyer.

Huh. So Poe is saddling up with R2? Or...no. That would be Blue 2?

So to their credit, while it seemed like a straight re-pop with a different color scheme, it effectively is a new tooling for many parts. Also, getting the R2 units in the droid slots might have needed new parts as well
So a little more work involved
Hoping we will see the new A-wing or Y-Wing or the new tie at some point, but I would also happy trade all those for a 1/72 Tie Bomber for the next wave
And they have every reason to be proud of the Star Destroyer, it is a masterpiece

Different from which version? I’ve just glanced at them but the TROS maintenance pits look the same as the TFA and TLJ pits. Obviously these differ from the OT pits.
I’ve updated my review page with what we know so far.

Useful information and a review of Bandai's 1:144 kit of the Millennium Falcon fantasy spacecraft.

I expect the pilot figures and base moulding may also change again.
Found this on Twitter:
Except the dish on the Falcon is wrong?

Fascinating... What is the context of this tweet?
I want the TLJ version of Kylo's TIE, but I do also like that Y-Wing.
I am hopeful for that TIE Bomber that may have been obliquely hinted at... And I feel like an ungrateful sludge for just wishing they'd do an ESB version of the PG Falcon and a 1/72 Slave I -- the cheapest I can find the FM Boba version is $200.

I like the orange on then X wing. Very 1970’s retro.
Reminds me of the X wing I made awhile ago-

oh I love that idea!
Looks amazing, congrats. Any modifications on that x-wing or is it just the Bandai kit?

Huh weird. I always said the radar dish on the falcon for TROS was round but everyone kept saying it was triangular with curved edges...
Everyone?- I do not remember that dish being triangular ever being mentioned
Ya know, now that they've done this version with the round dish, all they'd really have to do to give us a 1:144 OT Falcon would be to change the docking rings, side walls, and maintenance pits.
I suppose the lower hull too, but it's still way cheaper than doing it from scratch because a ton of the leg work is done.
