and the next two

Ahsoka Tano’s Delta-7B Aetherspite-class light interceptor

The starfighter made by the Kuat Systems Engineering Works is distinguished by the excellent agility and manoeuvrability that it gains from its small dimensions. Its rather weak armament is explained on the one hand by the reliance of the Jedi on their own abilities to avoid conflicts and on the other by the small size of the ship, that therefore has no hyper-space drive of its own. This ultra-light, short fighter is very well protected against fire by the two partly concealed laser cannon that it carries. This single-seat, tapered starfighter is used in large numbers by the Jedi Order in the period of the Galactic Republic, and also by Anakin's padawan (apprentice), Ahsoka Tano from the Togruta people with the conspicuous head tails. The ship she uses is clearly differentiated from Anakin's or Obi-Wan's ship by its dark red paint and the star-shaped decoration on the top.

Ahsoka's Delta 7B is part of the latest Revell easykit wave. It is is a repaint of Anakin's Delta 7B from last year. The painting is quite good but the weathering could be better. The cockpit is nicely detailed as well as the Astromech. You have the choice to build the Starfighter with or without the landing gear and a stand is also included.

features:

*opening cockpit
*removable Astromech

length: 202mm
scale: 1/40
no. of parts: 35

Belbullab-22 (General Grievous’ Starfighter)

Although General Grievous, Commander of the Droid armies, prefers direct battle, he flies a Starfighter, which has a Class 6 hyper drive. Due to its in-built life-support system, the ship is larger and more robustly built than other Droid fighters. Its rapid-firing laser cannons provide a fire power equal in its destructiveness to any V-wing starfighter.

The kit is from the same wave as Ahsoka's Jedi starfighter. It is the first version of the Belbullab-22 in animated design. The design of the kit reflects the original from the series very well. The color scheme is well taken and the cockpit is nicely detailed.
A little disapointing is the lack of landing gear but a nice stand is included.

features:

*forward sliding canopy

length: 211mm
scale: 1/32
no. of parts: 35

Christoph has me hooked too. I am gonna have to find the ESB ones now too. Geesh. I knew I should have let Clint pick up the walker for me.

[FialaFernbrugg]

thank you gentlemen

Shawn:
I guess the Revell walker is not in stores anymore but I'll try to find one for you at my local TRU in Graz. They have a lot of old Revell vehicles in the shelves. I've seen the Revell AT-AT also on e-bay for a fairly good price.

AAT (Armored Assault Tank)

This fearsome heavy combat tank is used by the Federation to conquer other planets. Thanks to different Repulsor Lift engines this heavily armoured vehicle floats above the ground. The thick front armour protects the AAT against almost all conceivable enemy attacks. The AAT is one of the best weapons systems in the Federation army and is operated by battle droids.

The AAT is part of the latest Revell easykit wave. It is the first version of the tank in animated design. The color scheme is well taken and the cockpit is nicely detailed.

features:

*opening cockpit
*rotating gun turret (360°)
*hinged primary laser cannon
*rotating secondary laser cannons (360°)

per:
+weathering
+detailed cockpit
+includes display stand
+first animated (CW series) version of the AAT

contra:
-droid pilot is too small (scale is not correct)

length: 195mm

The detail on this looks great. I really like the look of the droid driver. On the front page.

Still pinchiing myself over your great At-At driver customs Christoph. Still very much appreciated!

[SITHHAPPENS]

great job on all models got a few i still have to do

[CaptainLux]

Cool, man!

[Luke Sprywalker]

Awesome! That really does look great Christoph. Jaxon and I got 2 of these but they came in a bag much like trading cards rather than a box. I got Lukes X-Wing and Jaxon got Vaders Tie. I amwondering if ours are a bit smaller than yours. We hope to put them together this weekend as we just got them for Christmas.
