A "correct" AT-ST would have more detail, be entirely gray etc.
A "correct" Millenium Falcon would be the same...
But the system Star Wars is intended for children, and given that, I still
feel that TLG is doing a great job with these models.
I'll gladly admit that I'm not that interested in the new Technic "droids",
but who knows, beyond their looks, they may be incredibly fun to build. And
that's really what counts (unless we're talking about UCS models).
