great video! i like this approach for review, where you explain all the trivia behind the actuall movie props. to be a modelmaker for ILM is a dream job

Great background info 👍

Excellent video

Loved the video, thank you.

Well done. Subscribed.

It's true that the versions of the Falcon kits by AIRFIX/AMT/ERTL/MPC (it's the same model kit) and Revell were not at all accurate. But Bandai hasn't revolutionized anything. Fine Molds had the same approach as Bandai, producing kits that were screen accurate. The quality of their version of the Empire Strikes Back Falcon is almost as good as that of Bandai's A New Hope Falcon, and even has a larger number of separate parts.

Very interesting video. I just recently bought the Fine Molds 1/72 scale Falcon, because I always balked at the price of the Bandai one. But then I bought a Bandai Snowspeeder and compared it to my Fine Molds one and man... that Bandai detail is really something else. Makes Fine Molds Detail look like melted cheese and that was already incredible detail to begin with. Just amazing.

If anyone is going to notice inaccurate details, it will be kids, since they are the ones most likely to build, play with, and gaze at a model for hours on end, tracing every line and greeble. It is just kind of a funny assumption that is the reverse of reality in a lot of cases.

Just wish it didnt cost 350 quid :( 150 i would have snapped it up... But 350.......... its too exspensive

What do you think about the deagostini kit vs the bandai kit?
