Has anyone made a FFG Attack Shuttle model vs. MM Phantom toy comparison?

By dewbie420, in X-Wing Painting and Modification

I was wondering if anybody has measurements of both models OR a photo comparison they can share with me?

I haven't picked up the Ghost yet and I would like to get the MicroMachine version to mod with an Astromech slot. I'm hoping they are relatively the same scale so I can play so home-brew rules. I'm buying the MM mutli-pack soon with the Phantom along with the Auzituck.

Even if someone can tell me if they're close enough to scale or if they would look out-of-whack on the play-mat.

THANKS!

http://www.rebelscale.com/scale-lists/hasbro-micro-machines/ lists the Phantom as being 3.83cm long, giving 1/304 scale...

...just measured my FFG Phantom at 43mm, which if at 1/270, gives a length of 11.61m - ie almost exactly right.

So would suggest a difference of 5mm - I suspect you'd be hard pressed to tell the difference without them being side-by-side...hope this helps :unsure:

Would also say that, judging by the pic on that page, a bit of that 5mm might be in the cannons alone, so the bodies may be quite a good match ;)

I have both the "Real" Phantom and the MM one and they are very close. Alot of the difference is the cannons, which are ridiculously large on the official FFG version anyway.

Sorry it took so long for me to upload these shots. The difference in size is very small, if any. I actually prefer the flank detail on the Micromachines but the cannons and engines are sh*t. I'm going to replace them with some watch pin cannons soon.

I hope these help, John.
