[QUOTE="Snaketibe, post: 498547, member: 7379"] Here's mine. I never owned a Slave 1 as a child, but always wanted one. I was very envious of my friend who owned both this and an AT-AT (another thing I didn't have), and I've always liked it, even if it's not actually a very accurate representation of Boba Fett's ship. Kenner famously played fast and loose with the proportions and scale of the ships they made for the Star Wars trilogy, and they usually came up trumps with a great compromise between scale and look for a toy that had to be used with the action figures. The Millennium Falcon is a triumph in this regard (even though I always felt the inside was a bit of a con, since they only let you play in half the available space! :cry: ), however Slave 1, if you compare it to the actual movie ship, is IMHO one of Kenner's weaker efforts. That said, I still really like it, and I think the box art is beautiful! :) [ATTACH type="full" alt="Slave 01.jpg"]50401._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="Slave 02.jpg"]50402._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="Slave 03.jpg"]50403._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH type="full" alt="Slave 04.jpg"]50404._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
