« on: 05 January 2016, 11:16:04 AM »

I just noticed that Dragon announced some SW kits just before christmas.

Interesting and good to see the scales kept the same as opposed to the Revell kits.

Saves me building an AT-AT now  :D

cheers

Would a 1/35 not be too big for your Star Wars Jim?

Holy crap...a 1/35 AT-AT would be a pretty freakin' awesome.  lol

PS: Isn't X-wing 1/144?  If so, Dragon makes some beautiful kits - maybe a nice source for alternate models.

Unfortunately, X-wing is supposed to be 1:270ish (although there is an awful lot of discrepancy).

Bandai have released 1:144 Falcon and Slave 1 but there are also the F Toys Star Wars ships that are 1:144.

Gotcha...I must be thinking of the Wings of Glory WW1 game which I thought was 1:144....darn.  Oh well, still probably beautiful kits (love me some Dragon stuff --- namely their prepainted stuff).

Man that AT-AT walker will be enormous.

Pity they arent making a 1/72 version. I reckon it would go well with 28mm figures.
