      Interesting, most oldish Bandia kits are a combination of pre-coloured parts that you do glue, looks really nice, and even if they are part-painted then the options for detailing and enhancement are huge.

            I have been told they won't be released in Europe but I doubt that seeing as this is star wars and the new film comes out next year

            Even if they are preprinted the detail on them is very good so you could very well improve them with a bit of weathering

              Be prepared for a hefty sum if it does to fruition-looking at around £300 + I reckon.

                  Hmmmmmmmmmmm, yes and no. Lot of money plus it will take a lot of space and then there is storing it once built. Looks cool though I must admit.

                          As soon as they come out ill see what's available but I am going to do a repaint of the falcon in 1/72 scale , it's the pre painted snap kit which does look ok on its own but I want to do it so more of the detail comes out

                          Here's how it looks at the moment [ATTACH]89561.IPB[/ATTACH]

                          as you can see there is no depth to it

                            Time to ruin it...

                            The snowspeeder was the same sort of kit, I repainted section and then weathered, should look great when done Al.

                              I was looking for the snowspeeder when I got this but they didn't have it , I'm currently working on an X Wing of my sons for some practice
