I am rather new to model kits and I wonder which one will be the better version and how the prices are going to be. I have bought some Bandai kits and think they are great.
Is Dragon a good brand? The Dragon model intrigues me the most right now. At 1:35 scale it is going to be 28 inches tall which is extremely imposing. Will it even have moveable legs at that scale? I am mostly a Lego collector and it seems the only thing keeping Lego from doing a large scale AT-AT set is the weight coming from the body. Joints would be unable to hold up the weight and making the legs solid removes articulation and still makes it a pain to connect the legs without parts breaking off, or when the clutch is at its worst, the whole leg desintegrating.
And what prices should I expect for both kits? The biggest Bandai kit is a 24cm Falcon for 45$ which still is a completely different league compared to the AT-ATs. I never ordered something big from abroad because I dislike driving so far to the customs office but it seems worth it for this.
