Ok Darth Low-Key, Here are the pics as promised. They did a great job with the custom case. It's a nut hair larger than the "sung" fit at the base, but you can't even notice it at all. I am gonna order a custom one for the Falcon next as the quarter inch overhang in the back with the X-Wing cover bothers me.
 
Very nice! How much did that run ya? And does that mean you've got an extra case you're looking to get rid of :monkey5 ?

I think I'm going to end up doing that myself. Since I've actually got the SE X-Wing coming figured I would move the X-wing case to it and go ahead and get a custom made for the Falcon.
 
Kit, can you post a couple pics of the X-Wing case on the Falcon so I can see how it looks with the over hang?

Yeah, I'll have a spare X-Wing cover once I order 1 for the Falcon. Probably a month or two away as my recent spending spree needs to take a chill pill.

I also picked up the Boba Fett bust tonight on eBay so it can go with the Slave 1.

Yeah, I will tomorrow. The batteries died in m y camera as I was unloading the Slave 1 pics and I don't have any more here at the house.
 
What were the deminsions of the case for Slave 1? I oerder as X-wing case for the Tie-Fighter but have not found a Slave 1 case yet.

Thanks. last question how thick is the acrylic that you got since that might make a difference on how lose/tight it fits.

Honestly not sure on the exact thickness. It's not a "bad" fit in any way. I am really happy with it.
 
I"ve never seen one of Code 3's products,up close. Can someone let me know if it is quality material?..I'm interested in getting the Vader Tie,so anyone who owns it and has a good review of the ship,i would appreciate it..thanks.:emperor
 
Tie Finally came in today.

Sorry, no pics -- Don't have display space open right now, and it's already reboxed.

But, I'm VERY impressed. It looks fantastic, and I like the heavy feel of the diecast metal. There is a very modest amount of weathering, but what is present is tastefully done. Interior detailing is fantastic, and I like the Mini-Vader pilot. This is a LOT of collectible goodness for the current $100 price tag. I don't think you can go wrong with it! :cool:
 
Go to page 11 of this thread. Or check out Tom's, Kit's, or my collection in the 'Show Your Shelves' thread.

And I have a regular available if you're interested :D

Yes, but I would love to see a pic of Vader in the ****pit :)


I'm at work and can't help you out with that but I'm pretty sure Code 3's site has a pic of it.
 
Here is the top view with the hatch open.
