TylerTT 1,295 Posted October 25, 2017 I’m very interested to see how well those vheicals compaire to the Bandai kits. My guess is they will be much tougher but also less detailed. 2 vtarin and JBar reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arttemis 823 Posted October 25, 2017 Why does the AT-ST still have to be in that squatted position like in Imperial Assault!? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nihm 209 Posted October 25, 2017 It would be interesting to see what size they are based on the bases. Are they the same size as speeder bikes and AT-RT? Did any happen to get measurement of them at any demos? 1 Sarone reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I agree that it looks too small, especially when you put it side-by-side with the infantry that cockpit should be way bigger if to exact scale. FFG definitely scaled this down. BUT, this makes me think its WAY more likely that they'll do an AT-AT now. They've now shown that they don't care about staying to perfect scale for the vehicles in relation to the infantry, and this may be a specific choice to make the snowspeeder be more correctly scaled to a future AT-AT. 4 zwara81, JBar, Omegaclone and 1 other reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Reaver027 233 Posted October 25, 2017 Or the T-47 is correct and it is just an optical illusion or just a bad job in photoshop. 2 CptShrike and Sarone reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nihm 209 Posted October 25, 2017 (edited) If the AT-ST is in its squat position that may help with models and WotC minis looking okay in upright position or as terrain Edited October 25, 2017 by Nihm Spelling error Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wiredin 3,459 Posted October 25, 2017 FFG just made my wallet cry. I wonder if FFG started a loyalty program where if you buy so much product they will help fund your divorce lawyer. 10 Hos, Nihm, VanorDM and 7 others reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I know this is the expensive way, but scale is important to me, so I may put a Bandai scaled snow speeder on the ffg base, at least for casual games. I hope the ffg model will be close enough for scale. Super pumped either way! 1 Sk3tch reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

devin.pike.1989 1,546 Posted October 25, 2017 Geez! I just checked the forum this morning and come back at lunch time to find... I am a little disappointed they went for the same squatty pose for the AT-ST that they used in IA. I guess the four troop packs are fine, I was hoping they might have some extra options though, otherwise it just makes more sense to buy a second core set...

The silver lining is that at least it won't topple over as easy I guess. 2 Mep and CptShrike reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mimikyu 51 Posted October 25, 2017 Is it still going to be better to get two core sets if there are unique cards only obtainable in the expansions? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought the same thing, but if you look at this shot: Similar sized bases, right? Now check out this shot: You can probably fit 6-7 figures on the AT-St & T-47's base, vs 4-5 on the AT-RT's. The air speeder IS a bit scaled down (and thin too) but it's not that egregious. Here's a still from the set that shows the T-47s on the left: 1 zwara81 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
devin.pike.1989 1,546 Posted October 25, 2017 Although it then does go on to mention the New grappling hook card upgrade. Still, if it is just a single card it isnt really woth the extra cost Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
