The 3D was cool but the $30 for the family and I to watch it was bad. The coolest thing, though, was that I noticed two donor parts used on the rear of the MTT (Multi-Troop Transport).....the brown elephant looking transport that carries the battle droids.
I'm not sure if anyone ever noticed this. I never did because I haven't watched the DVD since before I got into SS models. Plus, I didn't buy the Blu-Rays. I'm sure I would have seen it there.
Anyway, I noticed two 1/72 Leopold parts were used on the rear of the MTT. All six of my Leopold kits are too far buried in my closet at the moment to check part numbers but they are the same parts used on the top and bottom of the TIE Bomber wing strut. See pic below. Look for the scene where the MTT hovers off after almost running over Qui Gon and Jar-Jar.
The screen MTT could be based off of a concept model....I'm not sure. I've always wanted to build it and the fact that there may have been a version which used donor kits makes it even more desirable.
