I saw wave 2 ships today...

By Reiryc, in Star Wars: Armada

.... and what struck me was the difference in the size of the ships.

The star destroyer is really big.

Yet the raider was about the size of my thumb. The MC30 also was much smaller than i had expected.

I took a picture of them in their boxes (they won't be unwrapped until saturday -- tourney day) so the picture isn't that helpful for really seeing the sizes.

. . . I have asked my stores to inform me when they come in. . . I may be wanting to cheat and get them posted online. . . By Thursday. . . I am a horrible horrible person. . .

I just wanted to add to that opinion, since I saw them at my local store today; The ISD is absolutely huge. I would be very surprised if someone is disappointing with the size of it. Also, the paint jobs were gorgeous compared to the core and wave one stuff, especially the rebel ships. The frigate is a good looking model.

Well, ya, being Rebel scum and all. ;)

After seeing the ISD in person yesterday, it struck me that I would buy this model if I saw it in a game store even if I had never heard of the game.

It's impressive.

How does the MC80 star cruiser compare with the ISD? I don't know if we've ever had a clear and direct comparison between the two as the Home One preview article used VSDs. It would be nice to know just how tall and wide the MC80 actually is as it is difficult to tell with all those curves. Thanks.

Hopped up Vader on a bicycle, all the Bothins were worth it.

But kill a few more, just to be sure. :)

But, on a more serious note, I think you shouldn't post any picks of anything that FFG hasn't shown already. And, if you are TOs hoping to play and get to the last round, you shouldn't even peak at the unspoiled stuff.

I'm not a tournament organizer and I'm not participating in any of the events. Won't be able to get my own ships until the rest of you guys.

Sweet Space Jebus that thing is massive. Good, I was hoping it would be.

One of the game stores I am TOing for says their FFG rep has approved opening of the large ships. . .

So this means someone is going to post the other upgrade cards that come with it soon, yes?

They had only asked about the large ships. I am clear for everything. Won't be doing the squadron pack though. We know what's in there.

As a primarily Rebel player, I'm still in full blown jealousy mode over that ship.

So. Awesome.

We're (I'm!) going to need a bigger boat mini case!!!!!

Yep. Looks like Extropia's 9" estimate for the ISD's length is correct :)

FEED MY ADDICTION!

Yeah,I need to figure out my pick n pluck foam setup. And it looks like I'll need my 2nd tier in my storage box asap.

Sithspawn that's a big'n. Wasn't expecting it to be that much bigger than the VSDs. I want one. Shoot, I want three.

I wonder how the Tucson for this will be made. . .

I hope someone can pull off getting a comparison between the ISD, VSD and MC80!

I'll have to drive about 3 hours just to get a chance at seeing them.
