Sweet info, Fila! I didn't know about that AAT. I still look for the gunship at hobby lobby but still haven't seen it.

np Clint.
I'm looking forward to get the new kits. The Attack Shuttle is a very nice kit in my opnion.

Thanks for the info Fiala. I too like that attack shuttle, the atte looks good to imo. I can't wait to see if you customize that one like you did your 212th AT-RT.

Anakins Jedi Starfighter

I found today the last missing Revell easykit in my collection, Anakins Jedi Starfighter from the Clone Wars.
The kit is again very easy to build, all parts fit perfectely together. The kit includes 27 painted parts (also a R2D2 figure, a Anakin figure (of course in CW style) and a construction manual. You can build the kit with extended or retracted landing gear. A stand is included.

length: 205mm
scale: ?
cost: 20€

story:
During the Clone Wars the Jedi Order deployed the single seat, tapered starfighter of the Galactic Republic in large numbers. A typical feature of this Delta-7B-starfighter is the position of the astromech droid (in Anakin's case R2-D2) just fore of the cockpit instead of next to it. The relatively light armament is explained by the Jedi's confidence in their own skills of conflict avoidance. Its modest dimensions also offer too little space for its own hyperdrive. This extremely light, short starfighter is well protected against bombardment. The two laser cannons it carries with it are partly concealed. Anakin uses a Jedi starfighter, among other things, when rescuing Jabba the Hutt's son, Rotta.

per:
It is a great kit. The detailing is good and it is very easy to build.

versus:
The weathering could be better.

rating:
8,5/10

That's another nice looking kit, Fila. To date, I have never seen this one over here.

[Tamer]

This one looks great. Guess you are done till the new line comes out.

[Luke Sprywalker]

Freakin awesome man!

[FialaFernbrugg]

Thanks for your comments guys.

Clint:
Clint here in Austria you can only find those kits in small stores like Muki Toyz or Müller. The 2008 kits were also available at TRU but the new kits are not in sight there.

Tamer:
Yeah my collection is now completed. Now I've to wait till October when the new line comes out.
If I can find some of the older kits I will make some custom vehicles but I'm not sure.

Droid Tri-Fighter

This kit is from one of the older easykit waves from Revell. You get 27 painted parts and a construction manual. The Tri-Fighter is 185mm long.
The "droid brain" in the middle is revolvable. A stand is not included.

information:
The droid tri-fighter, also known as the tri-droid fighter or simply tri-fighter, was a deadly Confederacy droid starfighter designed as a fast, agile and powerful space-superiority starfighter, built to excel in dogfighting. It would be used in large numbers in the later parts of the Clone Wars.

The kit is very detailed and also very easy to build. One thing I don't like is the missing weathering.

rating: 8.5/10
cost: 10€

I got yesterday my package with two Deagostini magazines. Number 5 with the AT-AT and number 6 with the TIE Advanced X1. Both kits have nice details and the magazines are full with information about the vehicles.

What do you think about the walker?

What do you think about the walker?

It could be better. One thing I don't like is that it has no articulation and also the head detailing is not the best.
