Quoted a snippet for emphasis....

then they
look at the Hasbro X-wing which comes in a box about 4 times as large for
the same price, and get the big one for their kid.


Yeah, but how swooshable would the X-wing be if it were four times the size?

It's not the X-wing that's 4 times bigger... just the box. People sometimes get
fooled by large boxes into thinking that the contents are larger too, and
that's not always so.

The Hasbro X-wing is maybe 2 times bigger, but since it comes already put
together, the box is a lot bigger

(...) good. (...) Yeah, but how swooshable would the X-wing be if it were four times the size? I think there's a limit on how big a space ship can get and still be playable. I don't have a LEGO X-Wing, but I do have the similar Warp Wing-Fighter (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jul-00, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.general, lugnet.loc.au)
