Is a general lack of detail throughout just to name a few. Shape being incorrect, the sides are too tall for the scale and shaped incorrectly, and there Most of the Star Wars models manufactured by MPC/AMT/ERTL suffer from various problems withĪccuracy and fit. All issues of the kit used the same molds.Īlthough long out of production and increasingly rare, you can still find the Star Destroyer There were at least two re-issues of the kit under the ERTL and AMT names and one version thatĬame with a fiber optics kit for lighting the model. Finally,Īround 1980, with the release of The Empire Strikes Back, MPC released a kit of the Star Destroyer. I ended up saying that to myself every time a new vehicle zoomed onto the screen. Literally, the first thought in my head was 'I must have a model of that ship.' Of course, I can still remember the first time I saw the vast shape of the Imperial Star DestroyerĬome into view and pass overhead in the opening sequence of the first Star Wars movie. Overall Rating: 9+ - Nice improvements over the kit parts.
