5.0 out of 5 stars Tiny but very nice!, December 31, 2009

This review is from: Star Wars X-Wing Japanese Collectible 1/72-Scale Model Kit (Toy)
I usually prefer to build larger models, but this kit is so well detailed and accurate (for its size) that I just had to get a few when I saw some built-up examples at my modeling club.

It is "tiny" (1/72 scale, about 5 or 6 inches long when built) but it is a very nice kit and obviously won't take up a lot of space!

Among its virtues are decals for several different ships (Red 2, 3, 5) and a few alternate parts (Fine Molds realized that not all the X-Wings were exactly the same -some parts were slightly different, such as the engine exhausts on Red 2 and the engine inlet covers). Another nice touch was the inclusion of not just an R2 unit, but also an R4 head (just in case you want to build Red 4 or your own variant) and a pilot figure.

When built the wings are positionable and you can build it with the landing gear up or down. A very well designed and executed plastic model kit! (not a toy!)

5.0 out of 5 stars Very Good Scale Model, September 14, 2009

This review is from: Star Wars X-Wing Japanese Collectible 1/72-Scale Model Kit (Toy)
This scale model, not toy, came together quite nicely for me. Some seam lines were in obvious spots and filler putty had to be applied, but overall the construction was rather easy. You can find english instructions on the web, or you can try and do the japanese ones if you're adventurous. Overall very good model, not a toy.
