Vintage Collection Y-Wing: Buy or PASS?

Shin Densetsu · 11-06-2012, 01:56 PM

Hey guys. I have been eyeing Vintage Collection Y-Wing at TRU. I passed on this many times. Actually wasn't this thing released like last year or something? Anyways I have the Clone Wars Y-Wing and that monster of a starfighter bomber is freaking awesome and heavy. However, is the Vintage Collection one worth it? I hear people say it's so out of scale but is it just the engines that are out of scale? or is the cockpit and everything tiny too? I did read that it has new parts like a Droid socket, screw hole covers, and an all new cockpit. Anyone have this and recommend it?

Passed on that thing so many times, even at like $15-$20. I just don't like the mold on it as it's way too stubby. If you want one to fit into a themed display then get it if it's cheap enough. I would stick with the Clone Wars version, which is great, or wait till release a more accurate version.

Is this the red striped one? Never liked that one. If I were to get one, I'd get a true vintage one instead.
