Viper78 Posted November 19, 2016 Share Posted November 19, 2016 Hi, I was wondering if anyone has built this kit? I'm thinking of getting this and I've seen the forum review but I'd like to see some builds if anyone has completed one. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Viper78 Posted November 19, 2016 Author Share Posted November 19, 2016 The cheaper version, the master series is a bit too expensive for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Baker Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 I am also curious to see a build up on the cheaper Revell 1:72 kit. The Revell Star Destroyer looked like garbage in their promotional materials, but once you see it built and weathered properly it looked a lot better than I expected. The higher priced 1:72 Falcon is the same kit FineMolds released years ago in a different box- easy to find some great buildups of that online.

Mike Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 I seem to recall Julien doing a review of this kit when it came out - have a look in the Sci-Fi reviews section if you want a selection of sprue shots and some opinion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Baker Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 Nice build! The sidewalls, while still too tall, have a lot better detail than earlier incarnations of this kit. So I take it you can build it with two dishes and have the option of ANH or ESB landing gear sets? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The current issue contains most of the bits in earlier issues, except, sadly, the Han Solo and Chewy figures. So, you can have only 3 undercarriage legs instead of 5, or the round instead of square antenna. There are also variations on the side hatches, the "gangway", the undercarriage legs and pads and a few other panels. FredT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
