It's easy to still get them via Amazon. My boxed Y-Wing still catches dust on my office desk. Looking forward to start that great kit.
I really like what I see here. Do you gave Boba some extra rounds of weathering?

Bandai announced an A-Wing and a Death Star laser cannon in 1/72 for May. :clockwatch:

Nice collection of Star Wars kits! Also what Mostrich said about the Bandai kits from Amazon if you're looking for more. I ordered a few from a Japanese reseller there and they made it stateside in about two weeks, well packaged too.

A-wing you say? Looks like Bandai is going to get more of my money :lol: I'm hoping they eventually come out with a B-wing too.

Nice!!! My son leaves for the Air Force next week is really hoping to be stationed in Japan eventually. If he does make it there, I am gonna have him go shopping for things like this to send home to me ;) I want that Y-Wing! My favorite ship design.

Nice ones Jeeves!

The mercenary could be directly cut-&-pasted from the movie, so real looking "fellow". Very nice!

Nice models Jeeves! I built the Finemolds Y-wing fighter before they lost the licensing to Bandai. I also just won a Bandai Darth Vader kit in a recent raffle. I wouldn't mind getting an X-wing and an A-wing too.
