Thanks for some reason I was thinking it would much smaller (like a YT-1300). Now I know why Luke's X-wing could fit inside.

This ship appears in AOTC. Where Anakin & Padme's liner docks on Naboo, you can see a ship of this type moving / being towed slowly on the right hand of the scene. To be honest I've paused that scene a couple of times, I see the similarities, but it's just too small to actually see it and go, "Holy crap! That IS an Action IV!!!". Much like the X-wing and TIEs on Coruscant.

Actually, it's an Action VI, and it is really quite visible and not very difficult to see without pausing or anything.

Same here. It's probably something you need a huge screen for, so sharp eyed people at a cinema might spot them. Or those with large screen TVs (though it would still be difficult).

Both Uts and I can see them. I first spotted them while watching it on my computer, which has a 21" monitor, and a DVD drive doesn't produce a perfect image...

You just have to know exactly where it is.

So it's not an Action 6, but an Action VI? Well that makes all the difference.

Plympto wrote that it was an Action IV. Although that might have been a typo, I decided to correct it anyway...

What's the difference between Action IV and Action VI.

Model number. :wink: Don't know about visual differences, though there must be some. I'll look at it again.

I fucking loved that comic. I was so disappointed that DFR or TLC weren't at all like it... :(

Nope. THat was no typo. I always get the I and the V mixed up. I think, that'd no longer be the case after this thread. :)

Each comic adaptation had a different scriptwriter and artist. IMO, TLC comic adaptation had the best and most realistic art. The HTTE adaptation made the Noghri unnaturally large (when they're supposed to be midgets) and had ugly renditions of the characters.
