Star Wars model kits : size does matter

[Commander Vyper]

Lovely as expected Michi.   

[AKULA]

I have both, I'll put them both along side the ATAT. I will bet you that the extra 5mm of the WOTC figure won't be noticable! :-)

So the Revell AT-AT is larger than the WOTC?

is it noticeably so?  Someone said the wotc was 1:50 - any idea what the Revell one is steders?

No idea! I only have the Revell one

The WOTC stormy is alot bigger than the WEG ones, alot more than 5mm! I have never really looked at them before, I have enough WEG ones, huge difference. Thats a Revell gunship as well.


Should of put a Battletech madcat along side to show the height difference

[steders]

Oh yes, I always thought the old amt/ertl ATSTs were just about spot on for the WEG stuff.

This is it. My repaint:

I agree, the Revell one looks bigger, but I like the details and proportions of the WOTC one better.

As the Wotc Speeder Bikes are really expensive which miniatures could replace them ?

[AKULA]

cheers Steders - that Revell one really looks big enough for an in-scale snowspeeder to fly between its legs

Model Zone is selling some of the Easy Click sets for about £15 each - didn't see the AT-AT at my local one though.

I bought a few Star Wars Die Cast Titanium Series Speeder Bikes.

The riders are a bit bigger than WoTC but at less than £5 each delivered, I'm happy enough.

Besides if it really started to bug me, I would kitbash a new rider out of a 70p stormie/clone scout.

Yes, I scratchbuilt a Malp for Stargate...no time for a AT-AT though

The WOTC may be better suited as it is likely to be more sturdy for gaming than the Revell one, but it will also cost a fortune if you need to buy it now, so the revell one is a better deal.

But I'm actually still sitting on the fence whether gamingwise, the old AMT/ERTL model wouldn't be more appropriate. Yes, it is too small if you go by actual scale, but it would still be the biggest model on the table without dominating it as much. It would be more playable.

Is it easy to remove the rider from the bike ?

Could you post a photo of the speeder bike next to a WOTC miniature please ?
