Bluefin has announced that it is bringing Bandai Spirits Hobby’s 1/72 scale Star Wars B-Wing Fighter limited edition model kit to San Diego as a Comic-Con exclusive later this month; check out the official promotional images here…
Being released for the first time anywhere in the world, and a month before the regular edition, this set includes an LED feature for its engines, an alternate seated pilot figure, and different mechanical details on the body and wings, with different color markings and different color injection. Various features create added realism such as opening-closing wings, rotating cockpit and included laser effects that can be attached to the tips of the wings when displayed vertically as well as the choice between clear or frame parts for the canopy. A nipper or sprue cutter is recommended for assembly but the kit does not require glue.
The model kit will be available to purchase from Booth #401, priced $58.00.
