Actually, I think that the Snowspeeder is a lot *more* impressive than the UCS
X-Wing.  It was designed to fit into a very specific scale, it was designed to
only contain a certain number of parts and fit into a specific spot in the Lego
product range, and it *still* manages to bea really well-designed set (looks a
lot like the thing it's intended to) with a good selection of parts.

...which is her opinion.  Mine is also that the MF is a well-built set, and
that's after buying it and building it.

Out of curiousity, have you bought or built the set?  Have you seen a set that
a friend bought, paged through the instructions at all, or are you just making
a judgement based on the pics circulating on the web, and on the box?
