Never liked the quality of any of their pieces....

i think these are really cool for what they are (the ultimate diecast vehicle, nothing more) the MSRP on these are absurd but you can get them readily for $150>200. i have the atst, salve and x-wing (none of which are displayed on the massive oversize black stand, they are loose) and im looking forward to vaders fighter and the rumored ATAT. i like diecast star wars items though. its ashame if they go under but at least they made all the cool star wars vehicles before they did (would have liked to of seen the death star and some regular tie fighters)

Where are you seeing them for $150!? I'd buy more of them if I could get them that cheap. I bought the Falcon from them originally, and really like it. I didn't buy anymore because of the price. I don't want them all, but there are a couple that I wouldn't mind having.

CODE3 is one of the worst high-end SW companies..never liked them too much, edition sizes and prices don't mach each other.

I hope the licence goes to a better company that deserves it.

ohhh maan. that is my FAV ship. i just wish ICONS didn't belly up and they could have made this. i still prefer their X-Wing and TIE-Fighter to Code 3's stuff. at least they both had cool Death Star bases and there was no 'signature series' nonsense back then.

you guys remember the ridell mini star wars helmets? man, i loved those. inexpensive, great looking and good quality. i just don't understand why everything now has to be huge and expensive. those small helmets were sweet, size of a bust. you could have a load on one shelf while now one helmet or ship takes all the space.

well, there's always Action Fleet

seriously though, i think AF is great. inexpensive, look great in a display.

i actually have a couple of those. pretty good quality for the size. well, i'd like them a bit bigger but the 1:1 helmets are so big and expensive. i guess i wouldn't care about the size if they were only $150 each.
