I want one.

And seeing as it comes from the same country that built the first flying wing and ballistic missile, I would be surprised if this thing is soon in the air.

I am a Norfolk man and i glory in being so

I love it that one of the comments was;

"It's only a model."

Check out this 1/1 TIE Interceptor.

Now THAT's impressive!

But the X-Wing model? What a waste! If I built that, it would be locked in an underground hangar somewhere. Not scattered in hundreds of little bits all over the desert floor, geeees.

That's serious model building when you do it on a 1-1 scale!

I have been little bit inactive with model bulding for a while, because I/we had something else to do...

 

And five of these are on the way...
