MR Star Wars Studio Scale Wish List

As much as I would love to see the capital ships (ISD, Mon Cal, Nebulon-B, Blockade Runner [ROTS or ANH version? :p :lol ] ), I have a feeling those are a little out of the realm of possibility. And even if they did, they'd have to scale them down a lot, which would just lead to complaints of "It's not 'Studio Scale'.". MR can't win that fight.

Death Star... lol.... even less likely.

There are the "that's neat, if I had endless income and infinite space" ones, and then the "oh I gotta buy that, I don't care what I have to do" ones.

Gotta buy:
Falcon
TIE Fighter
Imperial Shuttle

Would be cool to see made, but I would only buy dependent on price/availability of those listed above:
Sandcrawler
TIE Advanced
Queen's Starship (TPM)
Jedi Fighter (ROTS)
A-Wing
B-Wing
Jabba's Sail Barge

I actually have little interest in an X-Wing for some reason. Maybe because it's just so... obvious a choice; and been made dozens of times before in different formats. I'd rather see other stuff first, since we only seem to get 1-2 of these a year at best.

I didn't know there was a studio model of the Republic Star Destroyer. Wasn't that purely CG?

1st on my pie-in-the-sky list would be Imperial Star Destroyer, SS, ESB model (rather than the little ANH 3-footer that MR would be more likely to do), and fully lit.

2nd would the a SS Executor, fully lit, with matching scale ISD.

At this point, I would have to buy a multi-story house with high vaulted ceilings, so I could hang the Star Destoryers from the ceiling with the Executor scaled ships high above (and preferably at eye level from a 2nd or 3rd story overlooking loft), and the ESB SD lower, so that when viewed from below it would give a sense of forced perspective...

Guess I should go pick up some lottery tickets. :lol
 
Ok, here's the tally so far, in order of mention, top 5 in GREEN BOLD:
  • X-wing fighter - 6
  • T.I.E. fighter - 5
  • Vader's T.I.E. fighter - 11
  • T.I.E. Interceptor - 4
  • T.I.E. bomber - 3
  • Rebel Blockade Runner - 3
  • AT-ST ROTJ - 3
  • Sandcrawler - 3
  • Shuttle Tyridium - 7
  • Luke's T-16 - 1
  • The Cloud City twin-pod car - 3
  • Speeder bike - 3
  • Land speeder - 3
  • Death Star - 3
  • Star Destroyer - 7
  • Slave 1 ESB - 4
  • Death Star ROTJ -2
  • Republic gunship AOTC - 2
  • Escape pod - 1
  • Executor/Super Star Destroyer - 3
  • Sail barge - 2
  • Sand skiff - 1
  • Republic star destroyer -1
  • A-wing - 2
  • B-wing - 2
  • AT-ST ESB - 1
  • Amidala Royal Starship - 1
  • Jedi fighter ROTS - 1
I'll update the list every day as long as people post.

Hey, MR: market research on the house. :D

I would also be very interested in a ROTS Jedi Starfighter.

Gabe, is the 32" falcon set in stone? If not, you may want to add it to the list for MR's eyes. Many of us REALLY want that. :)
 
Here is my Wish list:

Vader's TIE
Speeder bike. ( MR could realy exploit this one. Regular edition with trooper, retail exclusive with Luke, collector's socitey with Leia ;) )

Naboo Fighter 1/24 scale. I know I'm in the minority in this one.

TIE interceptor

B-Wing

ROTS Jedi fighter 1/24 scale.
 
I'd love to see the:

1) X-wing
2) B-wing (I don't know why, but I've always loved this one)
3) Tie Interceptor

I'm not sure that the Star Destroyer would lend itself well to MR's Studio Scale line. In order to do the model justice detail wise, it would have to be HUGE.. Anything less than that would take away from it, imo.

...and can you imagine the price point of doing a 5ft Star Destroyer?

From what I hear, it is, that's why I'm not counting it. :)

Typos fixed - thanks Lynn.

From the models that definitely are in a realistic size range to be released as SS models, my favorites would be:

X-Wing
B-Wing (although this one surely will never be released :( )
Slave-1 (ESB)

Seeing those with pilots and working engine lights would be great :love

From the models that due to its size are completely out of range to be released as SS (maybe scaled down?.) the ones I like the most are:

Star Destroyer (ESB)
Home 1

Of cause there are a lot of other models I would like to see, but since every vote counts, I wanted to keep the list as short as possible ;)
 
I have seen no official Falcon announcement. The product plan for 2006 from MR didn't include it. That means either it's not coming in 2006 or they haven't announced it yet. I'd put it on the list Gabe.
 
1> ESB slave 1
2. Republic gunship
3. Tie Interceptor
4. Star Destroyer
5. Executor
6. Jango Slave 1
7. Falcon
 
Gabe,
Are you attempting to create your own ILM Archive? :p

For the record, I think MR is choosing the Y-Wing over the X-Wing and Tie because Icons already made them. It seemed to work the same way with the light sabers.

Any way, here's my list:

1. Blockade Runner (with lights, please.)
2. X-Wing (ibid)
3. Tie Fighter (ibid)
4. Falcon (ibid)
 
This thread is a great idea.

I'd like to see:

1. TIE Advanced X1 (Vader's TIE- this is my most wanted)
2. Slave I
3. AT-ST from ROTJ
4. X-Wing
5. B-Wing
6. Naboo Starfighter (I just like the design of the ship, so I'm hoping that a concept model was created at some point. If they can make Yoda's saber and Clone helmets, then this should be possible also)
7. Ep. III Jedi Starfighter (Based on the concept model from the Art of Star Wars Exhibit)
8. AOTC Republic Gunship (See #6)


I already have the AT-AT SE, so I really only have room for 1 or 2 more of these. I definitely want Vader's TIE to be one of them.
 
1. ANH Star Destroyer
2. Vader's TIE fighter
3. Sandcrawler
4. Luke's Skyhopper
5. That landspeeder in Mos Eisley that drive's in front of the sandtroopers...the white one.
6. Rebel Blockade Runner (ANH, not ROTS)
7. Luke's landspeeder

:cheers,

Thomas
