Now (again, I know...), what UCS models would be possible in the future?

My takes:

Episode 1 - Naboo Fighter, AAT
Episode 4 - TIE Fighter (hardly likely, with the Interceptor around), Y-Wing
Fighter (probably a tad too large)
Episode 5 - Snowspeeder, Slave 1 (again, probably too large), Cloud Car (not
likely)
Episode 6 - AT-ST, A-Wing Fighter, B-Wing Fighter (again, probably too
large)

Hmm, I think the ships that "are too large" could be possible UCS models
because they aren't TOO large.  They're mostly single-seater (or maybe double)
ships so they should be comparable to the existing UCS sets.  Then again, I
don't know how the B or Y-Wing (for example) compare in scale to the existing
UCS sets.

Personally, I was hoping for a UCS Millenium Falcon, but THAT would probably
be too large!

(...) The Y-Wing & B-Wing Fighters are something like 16-17 meters (the X-Wing, in comparison, is 12,5 m). Slave 1 is around 20 meters... (...) Since the minifig version comes in at $100, it would probably be a bit large, yes. :-) T. --> thomas (...) (24 years ago, 8-Aug-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Hi! Bryan Wong schrieb: <snip> (...) Hmm, maybe TLC will not use the same scale for all UCS models - Personally I would like it since it would give TLC the opportunity to produce cool ships like the Nebulon B Frigate or a Star Destroyer. CU, Stefan (24 years ago, 8-Aug-00, to lugnet.starwars)
