I was wondering if any of you guys out there who have built one of the three S.S X-Wings might be able to put in some opinion on this based on the kits and your experience building them?Which is the better kit to work with/build?Which is the most acurate?From what I've seen,all three are pretty damm close to the original studio miniatures as far as I can tell.So, is the original Captain Cardboard S.S X-Wing, the Salzo V2 or the Salzo V3 X-Wing the better of the three?I'm hoping to find one within the next year.
Which is the better S.S X-Wing kit?

Why?
If you have to ask.
You dont deserve the opportunity to build it.

No, don´t get me wrong, I just ordered a V3 from Mike and was just curious about the major differences versus the V2 (which I allready have).
The biggest difference is the fuselage, which Moe did a fantastic job building, it is a little wider and a little deeper but just about the same length, and it has the canopy built into the fuselage. The wings are also a bit larger, and slightly thicker, modeled after the larger "pyro" wing. The wing mounting blocks are also different, allowing the builder to mount the blocks flush like the pyro's or "floating" to better mimic the sissor mechanisim. There are a couple of other small differences.
The winter is coming fast over here so i will not be taking any new orders on the V3 for a while, if you have contacted me prior your OK, but I will be boxing this up for a while, maybe a long while as i have other stuff i want to work on...
thanks
