And here the Royal Guard TIE Interceptor custom. I made also a little size comparison with the DIECAST  TIE Interceptor.           

ok. I see you guys are not the biggest TIE Interceptor fans. It's ok.

I hope you like the new Revell stuff that I found today a bit more.

Porax-38 Starfighter (Magna Guard Fighter)

This easykit is from the newest Star Wars model kit wave from Revell. The kit includes 32 painted parts (with Magna Guard pilot) and a construction manual. The differnt parts fit perfectly together and so it is very easy to build.
The weathering looks great and the kit comes also with a stand which is very good.
The Fighter has only one play-feature, the opening cockpit.
cost: about 25€.

story:
The Porax-38 had interstellar range and was fitted with highly effective, long-distance sensor systems that provided early warning of enemy activity. These large P-38 fighters were also capable of independent hyperspace jumps, which enabled them to defend Utapau far into the Tarabba Sector. Versatile thrusters, dual-reactor systems, and high-capacity deflector shielding made them a valuable asset to the Loyalist forces.
The interstellar range of these vessels also allowed them to take more punishment and they could endure longer, more arduous missions than tiny, fleet-based fighters like the Confederacy's Vulture droid fighters and tri-droid fighters and the Republic's V-wings and Eta-2s.
The Porax-38 was manufactured by Buuper Torsckil Abbey Devices and only required one pilot, who had to wear a protective breathing mask. Its had enough consumables for 20 days of air, fuel, and food. Its primary armament was two laser cannons. The fighter's tiny cockpit could only seat one short, stocky Utai, not the tall Pau'ans. Some Porax-38s had the cockpit modified for an IG-100 MagnaGuard.

Sweet review, are you gonna make a custom base for this one too? Probably a stupid question.

Cool interceptor custom too. I just can't find time to get to all the threads it seems. Very nice though. On the fp now.

Low Altitude Assault Transport/infantry, LAAT/i (Republic Gunship)

This kit is my favorite of the new easykits from Revell. Awesome weathering and detailing, lots of features and figures makes this set to a must for all Clone Wars fans. The easykit shows the space-version of the LAAT/i so it comes without the composite-beam laser turrets. The kit includes 49 painted parts (also two Clone pilots and four Clone Troopers) and a construction manual. The side-doors are movable same as the back-hatch and also the anti-personnel laser turrets in the front and in the back are movable.
The kit comes also with a nice stand in Geonosis-style.
But if you never build a Revell easkit before, don't start with this one. It is difficult to build, some parts can broke and it is a bit complex.
cost: about 30€

story:
The Low Altitude Assault Transport/infantry (LAAT/i), often referred to as the Republic attack gunship, was a specialized gunship designed for aerial-based support and infantry transportation. It was produced by Rothana Heavy Engineering and used by the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars, The Galactic Empire also used it for a brief period after the conclusion of the war.
The LAAT/i was affectionately known as the "larty" by clone troopers.

No I don't think that I make customs bases for the new ones. I'm very happy that Revell decided to include stands now. The Geonosis stand which comes with the Gunship is really cool, I can't never make a custom stand in this quality.

Great reviews and pics, Fila! Both of those new ones are on my want list, for sure. About how long do you think each one of those vehicles are or, what scale do you believe that they are molded in?
