This is a perfect picture of the size comparison. My gosh those Wave 5 ship bases are massive.

No they aren't.... they are on the TOP floor, the Falcon and stuff are BELOW them so the PERSPECTIVE makes them look like different sizes.
Keep in mind - the TO BE Announced area is too small for Imperial Huge ships.... so it will likely be something with a small or large base.
Aren't they the same size as large ship bases?

Or they could just move things around a bit.... ![]()
Doesn't look like they exactly agonized over the display case setup.
The Outrider chit is on backwards, ffs.

There should be room for at least one Huge ship ![]()
The Transport is a few levels lower for comparison.
Wow that image gives a really good feel for the massiveness of the Decimator - that's one seriously solid ship!

Well spotted! I was too excited, my bad.
I'm not so sure... the Outrider looks to be the same base size as the Falcon... but not the Deci, that looks larger or am I crazy?

Hohoho, plowing soon, through a neighborhood near you.

I know what you mean, but I think it's just optics. The model certainly is larger.
That said, it's going to be a pain in the rear on the battlefield. I wonder if it comes with a huge-ship base stem. It probably should.
EDIT: Thanks to Dagonet's reminder picture (below), I now see that the VT-49 will have a standard large base stem. I think I'm probably going to have to rob one from my poor space whale, and set it up on two large-base stems instead Thankfully, it keeps itself in proportion inside its base footprint.

I think It's just a really poorly composed photo taken by someone who doesn't know how to use their fancy camera.

It's the angle. Check out the original introduction picture http://www.fantasyflightgames.com/ffg_content/x-wing/news/wave5/swx24-layout.png'>here
And the accompanying text:
The VT-49 Decimator Expansion Pack brings this intimidating Imperial gunboat to X-Wing as the game’s largest ship yet designed for Standard Play. Even at the game’s signature 1/270 scale, the expansion pack’s detailed miniature towers over its base and smaller starfighters.

That sounds like Tom Vasel to me, fun guy to watch, but not the best cameraman ever.

Outrider's primary arc is backwards? ![]()
Nice post and yes bud, this is a bad picture and the new goodies are on top so they look HUGE!
Like Crabbie said and such.
That Decimator sure is a pretty!

No, the cardboard base is just facing the wrong way. Someone did a sloppy job of setting up
blub
That Decimator size... love it.
