Could not agree more. Built the Bandai one a few years ago and it was fantastic!

[@drewlovelyhell4892]

Might be an acceptable alternative to the Bandai kit, which is out of stock now.
I'd stick with Bandai given the option.
Wish I bought a third one when I had the chance.

Out of interest a friend asked Revell why couldn't they have a standing Biker Scout, due to licensing the figure has to be seated.

[@chungin955]

tbh tthis looks like a combo of the og mpc kit and a bit of new tooling

[@DutchDaveModels]

I have the old MPC speeder bike. I think I’ll stick with that one 😅

[@eclipsehorse8693]

This feels like the same kit to be honest. I built the MPC kit and this is pretty much it- with a pouch and Grogu figure added

[@frankhawl3997]

The sculpt of the biker scout for the 80s era MPC/AMT kit was deformed. It wasn't even on the level of the Kenner action figure. I had to use half a tube of filler putty to fill gaps and rework the details, especially the helmet, the mouthpiece, and don't get me started on the visor. I do agree the details on the bike itself were superior to the Revell kit. I will admit. I wish I had the Revell kit's figure to place on the MPC Speeder bike. Take care.

Good review. And you're right.

[@destinyangel5]

Your right , it's very toy like and the base is terrible and nothing like the great Bandi version the couple found right now on Ebay cost a fortune over 130 pounds . Why aren't Bandi making this available again, have they lost the Star Wars licenses ? there's still plenty of PG falcons for sale but lots of other Bandi Star Wars has completely disappeared just like this speeder bike , why ?

[@garrburton3375]

Phil, Agree fully with both your observations and comments…soft detail and in my opinion in the £35-£45 price bracket.
For me when I opened mine I was somewhat underwhelmed considering where many companies are heading in terms of both the crispness of their moulding and the fine detail they manage to achieve.

[@jeffholt9437]

Maybe the Bandai ones have dried up on purpose.....?

[@horrido666]

Its overpriced, by at least 30%. I remember building a speeder back in the 80s. Must have been the Bandai one, but thought it was Revell.

[@eclipsehorse8693]

MPC put out a 'Return of the Jedi' speeder bike model kit in about '83/84

[@richardshaw1968]

Opinions are like rissoles, not everyone likes them.

[@tavesortti1669]

I'm not interested in sci-fi😂

[@MGB-learning]

Great video
