>>>6088649 What a retarded decision on their part though, starting out with a gigantic, overpriced vehicle that no one really cared to own.>Tie Fighter>no one really cared to own.I think the problem here is that they started off by making Force Awakens, which is a bad movie.
A Tie Fighter is the right choice, since it's one of the most icon vehicles ever made. Despite being from a shitty movie, it still almost identical to the originals, which means even non-sequel fans may like it.
>They really should've started smaller with Rey's speeder, or Luke's landspeederThe fucking popsicle? You're dumb. And the landspeeder is also lame. XWing? MUCH huger than a Tie Fighter and harder to cheat on its scale.
You know what they DID start on? Speeder Bike, which is also one of the most iconic vehicles ever made and guess what? IT also shelf warmed like crazy, got clearanced off for $15 in most places, and you can STILL buy it cheap.
1/12 scalefags are poorer than 1:18 scalefags, because at least 1:18 collectors take advantage of the clearance and buy up all the stock. Shit like the Speeder Bike would sell out and never make it to clearance either.
