I loved it when MR was around I was so excited for what new model
or replicas they had in the works. Then they lost the Star Wars license after 2007, I was so upset about that. Then EFX came along and we know that story.
It's definitely great news for SW fans. Especially, for people who love the vehicles and props of SW. After 10-11 years, my MR Falcon is still number 1 in my collection. Unfortunately, after they lost their license, I was one of the people who didn't get a replacement plaque for "canon". I'm hoping for a studio scale Tantive, damaged Death Star, and a RSD. Definitely looking forward to what's new from them.
I heard that Steve dude who ripped off lots of people for big bucks is in charge. Any excitement I may have had has gone out the window.
His involvement and the crowd funding thing has me extremely skeptical this will work out at all for collectors. I imagine most in the prop community will stay away and warn others to do the same.
I missed out beforehand, didnt start collecting til they stopped producing.(Master Replicas) I am hopeful they will come around!
