Re: Wedge Antilles X-Wing Starfighter Released in Canada
Now this is the sort of thing I expect people to be unenthusiastic about and I fully empathize. No matter how nice a toy this is, and it does appear to be quite nice, the price tag is a total deal breaker. It doesn't help that this mold has been available a couple of times previously, if I recall correctly, and at considerably smaller costs.
Personally, the X-wing is not one of my favorite ships. I generally don't get too excited about starship toys, anyway. No matter how much I may love a particular ship (such as the OT Y-wing), I am far too old to get away with running around the yard, 'flying' my starfighter. So, the majority of the play value of these ships is lost even before I hit the register. Of course, a landed starship really isn't a lot of fun, either.
That's a whole lot of reasons that make this one an easy pass for me.
