great review

[Clonehead]

Another amazing review, Fiala!! I went into my favorite hobby shop looking to find this but had no luck. I was more concerned about finding the atte and attack shuttle kits but had no luck there either.

I know, they are hind to find. I found the newest kits in a special model kit shop. I fear TRU solve their Revell stock.
I think you'll have the best chance with online stores.

@FialaFernbrugg
I found these reviews meticulous and very handy when deciding which products from that line I'd like to purchase.
The photography helped a lot also; clear and well lit, good use of scaling too. 
I was wondering what your thoughts were on the Fine Molds products?
Also, How did you construct some of those flight bases/ display stands?
I know some came in the kit, but with the others it seems you made an MDF/Particle board base.
The closest things I can find cheaply here are Masonite and Acrylic sheeting...
or Bak2Basix bases 

Thanks again for the great reviews, kobayashimaru

Thank you kobayashimaru.
I'm glad that my reviews helped you.
I can't tell you a lot about the Fine Molds products because they are hard to find and very expensive but the Fine Molds kits (reviews) that I've seen were the best Star Wars model kits of all times. The detailing and the quality is perfect.

Most of my display stands are made of wood (beech wood). Wood is very cheap here in austria and I've the right tolls for "woodworking" at home.

X-34 Landspeeder "easykit"

The X-34 Land Speeder provides swift planetary locomotion (up to 250 kph). Under the bonnet is a repulsor generator which enables the speeder to hover. The X-34 is controlled by a steering wheel. The driver is on the right-hand side. The windscreen consists of an impact resistant transparent material that gives effective protection against sand and stones.

scale              1:14
no. of parts       32
length             243mm
skill level             2

Nicely detailed but the weathering could be better. The size is good for a Tatooine display or diorama.

TIE Fighter "easykit"

The Twin-Ion-Engine fighter of the Imperial troops is one of the most frequently used space fighters and was made in immense quantities. As with all TIE designs, the standardised cockpit is in the middle of the ship and is linked to the solarwings by outriggers. Thanks to the transparent cockpit surfaces, the TIE offers a better panoramic view than other fighters. The TIE is armed with fixed mountedtwin laser cannon.

scale               1:65
no. of parts        34
length              156mm
skill level               2

Great details and a nice paintjob. The TIE has the same size as the previously released TIE Advanced X1.
