I agree, 40€/$45 is very steep for a model kit that's just 4" long. However I mustn't forget that this is imported and includes import fees and 20% sales tax. I'm glad BANDAI got the STAR WARS license. It's good that Revell has some competitors out there. Let's hope they'll survive the economic crisis and won't go broke. Though I hope people built more model kits during the pandemic again.
LEGO got a little lazy so I'm beyond happy they have plenty competitors by now!
The level of detail on Bandai's Crest looks amazing! Also the vac-metal effect is something only they have as far as I know. Thanks for the review! I'm glad you found a nice treat to your birthday!
Watch The Mandalorian next, it's good.
