Star Wars Vehicle Collection Vol.5 - F-Toys

Star Wars Vehicle Collection Vol.5 - F-Toys
There is a 'new'Star Wars Vehicle Collection Vol.5 to be released by F-Toys, although on the whole I think it is a very disappointing release from a 1/144 perspective....

"these are not the droids you are looking for....!! "

  3. How disappointing! So many subject possibilities available for 1/144 from the Star Wars universe and the best they can manage is a new paint job on earlier releases. I hope the lazy bugger that come up with jem gets his butt kicked out the door.

  4. @rkmasu: if you're looking for an ARC-170 in 1/144, try the Revell EasyKit Pocket one - it's actually about 1/142, but still close enough! I got it in my collection and it's an impressively big beast compared to smaller starfighters. Guess comparing an ARC-170 to a X-wing would be similar to comparing a B-25 to a F-86 or so...

  5. Yes, I have the Revell Arc-170.
    But you can note the Quality of Ftoys are greater than Revell Easy kits..and the fact in have all in one scale is another plus
    If have no choice Revell will stay..
    still better than Altaya diecasts..

  6. It's funny, I was just thinking about the next Star Wars set and now here it is... Well, yeah. It is a bit disappointing. Since I use these for wargaming, I have no use for the Naboo or Jedi fighters. The Falcon is cool but 1/350 doesn't serve my purposes unless they re-release all the starfighters in 1/350. The only good part about this set is the Tie Interceptor. Now that it's not the secret model I can get some without having to spend $25+ each on eBay. The X-wing is okay and I can use a few more anyway.
    I'm really interested to see what the secret model is. Really hoping it's not just another repaint.
