Hey all,

Was just wondering if anyone happened to purchase one of the Bandai ship models and saw the turbolaser that came with it. They certainly don't seem to be in scale with the ship in the kit, but I think it would work wonders as terrain or a scenario piece for X-Wing!

I have one from the A-wing kit. If anything it is a little small for X-wing if the various other 3rd party turbolaser models on the market are anything to go by. It far surpasses any other model in terms of detail though. I will get some pics for comparison later.

Yeah, I'm thinking it is perhaps a bit too small, although it is hard to tell. For example, this website: http://www.stardestroyer.net/mrwong/tlc/Cannons/index.html makes the argument that the swiveling portion of the turret is approximately the size of a starfighter, in which case the Bandai turret may actually be **** near in-scale. Certainly moreso than alternate turrets.

At last got photobucket to work:

Bandai you say? That's close enough to the sliding scale FFG uses to satisfy me .

I also got one from the A-wing - does anyone know where I could purchase the turret individually without the ship?
