Bandai doesn't make anything like this. Their Tie Fighter is tiny in comparison. Also, this kit from Round2 is actually pretty darned nice. I'm in the process of building one, and I can tell you right now that anything from Bandai or Revell would have a tough time being 'better', they'd just be different.

I'm sorry to disagree, but I have a 1/72 Bandai Tie Fighter. Though it's EXCELLENT, given the small scale it isn't actually more detailed/crisper. However, i it is EXCEPTIONAL for the small scale. And, if Bandai ever made a larger scale one, I'm sure the 1/32 Studio Series one would pale in comparison.

Nice catch!

You're not wrong. That'ss why I opted to focus on steps to make it look as good as possible. And it looks great on a shelf lol!

Thanks for checking out the vid. It turned out WAY better than I expected.

I didn't expect it turn out as well as it did. But going into it with lowered expectation may have made it a better build?

I think it was a calculated decision, like the 537 refit. They know the kits aren't great BUT there's a huge amount of nostalgia for them, even with the defects...also it was a way to get star wars models out without having any new tool developed yet. Now, if they don't update the 1/43 x-wing tool (or even develop a new one), then you kinda know they don't really care.

Thank you so much (for watching AND commenting)

If your expectations are reasonable this can make a very nice little shelf model.

If I never did a Vulcan Shuttle, that I weathered, I'd never have had the skill/confidence to tackle this.

That's why I never got into rocketry. The risk of it flying away to parts unknown was too great for me! Without know the progression of your Parkinsons and mobility/fine motor skills it's hard to accurately answer. However, I'd say larger just because it's more forgiving and easier to make spot repairs if you end up with paint or weathering you're not happy with? Revell made a 1/29 scale one, I just ordered one from a guy on Ebay

@@JasonsSpaceDock LATE STAGE 2. I have trouble sometimes even using my computer mouse.

There is a 1/29 X Wing from Revell. I just found one on Ebay. I also picked up a 1/48 Fine Molds.

Thanks KCon! It's not ideal but it builds up well enough for a little shelf model.

Feel free to never watch my content again!

Thanks for letting me know about the audio, I'll have to look into it.

If all goes wqell, early in the new year I'll have them available.

To be fair, the Round 2 aztecs are doing a lot of heavy lifting lol

Why? Why bring that kind of negativity and garbage remarks? If you don’t like it, consider this your invitation to never consume my content again.

Wow what a douche...ever hear of space x? These clowns make me laugh they take the time to not only find you on UA-cam but watch ur videos so they can tell u how much u suck. Nice video AWESOME subject matter. Thanks for posting

It's not so much a question of access to the box. Yes, I can put the pieces in another box, or rubbermaid. It's an issue of size. I have a fairly large space, so I can put the box top off to one side. Other builders only have a little space, so then picking up, spinning to the correct side, then stowing the box top somewhere becomes a whole different propsition.

You're right, not even close to accurate. BUT, it's a kit I enjoy building...especially with some of the accessories available now.

The last time they re-issued this kit was in 2010 so, hopefully, they'll do another run...sometime.

Yours are the best option out there!

Well, I would say thats some decent art you produced! Thanks for watching and commenting, it was a challenge to pull off! I will be scaling back commissions in the new year, and there'll be some announcements about that in the coming weeks. However, if you're ever interested in one HMU and I'll generate a quote for you.

I think worrying about mistakes is the #1 things holding people back re: model making.

Totally agree, the B fights with the E for my favourite Star Trek ship. I have some of the books from the Lost Era and while they’re good I’d have loved to get to see her more on screen.

I didn't love all the mods they made, but I did like the addition to the secondary hull. Reminiscent of the PBY Catalina

@@JasonsSpaceDock that’s definitely my favourite addition as well, I think they made the right choice in choosing the Excelsior class for the B, definitely makes sense thematically but creating a refit for the introduction to the B was definitely the way to go. I wish we’d got to see more of this version in DS9 as so many Excelsior were seen. It was a pity that the additions would have caused damage to the Excelsior model though.

Thank you so much for watching AND commenting!

Thanks for the headsup about linktree. I'll see whats going on there.

@@JasonsSpaceDock of course. your builds are so nice! i've always been a lego builder myself, but after starting in D&D the last two years and printing/painting mini's, i've been looking into scale models..... where do you get the black bases i see in your videos? just starting out, so trying to figure out a lot of things lol
