Sprue photos of the 1:48 scale Bandai Snowspeeder kit...
Box art... sticker sheet (left)... decal sheet (right)...
Model base & stand, laser guns... clear canopy & engine parts...
Standard canopy & more engine parts... laser beams... main hull & engine flaps...
Some finer details...
Pilot & gunner...
Finemolds 1:48 scale Snowspeeder sprues...
Box art & decal sheet...
Main hull parts... Base & stand... pilot & gunner...
Engine & other detail parts... standard and clear canopies...
Closer details...
Bandai/Finemolds random detail & size comparisons...
Engine boxes, Bandai left, Finemolds right (slightly smaller)...
Engine box panels, Finemolds top, Bandai bottom (slightly bigger)...
Main hull (top), Finemolds left, Bandai right (slightly bigger)...
Bottom...
Pre-colored parts from Bandai right, no coloring Finemolds left...
Figures... Bandai left (more detail, one piece), Finemolds right (three pieces per figure to be glued)
The Bandai kit is slightly bigger than the Finemolds, and as for detail, I gotta say my pick is Bandai over Finemolds, the mobile photos don't justify the models but Bandai has the sharper detailed kit (sorry Finemolds), with that being said, I do like that Finemolds has included on the decal sheet two weathered color schemes for their Snowspeeder, the orange and the grey.
Cheers.
