RevellBandai Star Wars 1/72 X- Wing Starfighter

mucho retraso por culpa del correo

Product exactly as described, absolutely stunning kit full of details gives you the option to use either water decals or stickers depending on your scale modeling experience which is great. Product arrived 3 days earlier than expected and was in pristine condition. Will definitely buy from this seller again! : )

Probably the best mass produced X-wing model ever made. When compared to the Fine Molds model that this effectively replaced, there are nothing but good things to be said. In almost every way, Bandai has delivered a product that is far superior than its predecessors.The thing I really like is the droid socket behind the cockpit. A fully assembled astromech droid slides into the socket, instead of just the dome. You remove the butt plate and slide the power generator trench back and out comes the droid. The kit also comes with two droid bodies so you can build both an R2 and R5 series droid. This is great if you choose to build one of the other members of Red Squadron. The only downside is that only decals for R2-D2 are included. Luckily, the detail on the droids is crisp and quite impressive and will lend nicely to hand painting the droids if need be. The S-foils lock together snugly making it easier to display the craft in a landed position if desired, which opens up diorama options. The decals are quite nice and respond well to decal solvents to hug the surface of the model. The only downside is that the squadron markings and colored panels are not weathered like they are on the studio models. Personally, I paint all those anyway but for some less experienced or younger modelers, it could be a little bit of a letdown.The only thing I dislike about the model is the flight stand. The Death Star base and exhaust port are both brilliant, but the flight stand is clunky and looks out of place. I used it on the first few I built but have since moved on to 3mm clear acrylic rod, which fits perfectly in the plug on the bottom of the model. It lends itself to less of a toy-like appearance and looks a little more "professional."The bottom line is that this is a wonderful model kit in every way. The price point is also very fair, especially given the detail and engineering of these kits. It also makes it easy to build a small fleet of them to model the entire Red Squadron!

Me llegó bastante rápido desde Japón y perfectamente protegido.Sobre la maqueta, de muy buena calidad, muy detallada. Nada que ver con las que venden en las tiendas, más caras y peores en cuanto a detalles. El montaje no es difícil, aunque es recomendable darle un buen trabajo de pintura para que quede perfecto, aunque tal cual está ya podría valer.Recomendable al 100%, está muy lograda la maqueta.

Der Baustaz ist heute bei mir angekommen, sehr detailreich gegossene Teile - sogar noch feiner als beim FineMolds Modell.Aber er ist mit 1:72 leider auch sehr klein (sogar noch etwas kleiner als FineMolds). Dafür bekommt man aber auch einen hochwertigen Bausatz für MODELLBAUER und kein Steckspielzeug wie bei Revell.Ich habe mir mehrere Bandai StarWars Bausätze über Amazon gekauft und obwohl alle aus Japan geschickt wurden, gabs keinerlei zolltechnische Probleme. Wurden einfach per Post (DHL) zugestellt. Keine zusätzlichen Kosten (zumindest bei mir).Und hier sind sie auf jeden Fall deutlich billiger als in der Bucht...
