Although I was probably one of the first to critisize the Infiltrator when I
finally got to see a picture, now that I have built the model I think I will
have to at least partially retract my critisizm. I am not saying that it is a
great set but I think the picture on the box is awful and seriously detracts
from the built model. Out of a rating from 1 to 5 I think I am going to
upgrade my rating to a 3. The pieces are great with all the gray and dkgray
and when the model has all its compartments closed and the wings opened about 1
click more I think it looks OK.

It looks like they made it wider to increase play value. With the wider (...) (25 years ago, 5-May-99, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general)
