Code 3 Falcon- Save Your Money!

Post by Lord Poe »

WTF are these people thinking? $300 bucks for a die-cast version of the plastic model??? This thing is touted as incredibly detailed replica. But its not!! Its the incorrect, "fat" version of the ERTL model!!

Compare for yourself:

Very nice model by the looks of things, its just a shame they started with an inaccurate base.
