I'm signing out. The mil/LE forums I'm on are actually less regulated than this. Go figure.

Im trying to recall if AMG, BMW or Porsche ever embargo'd Nurburgring spy pics of their new models on all the car forums...lemme think...oh wait, they didn't. In fact, AMG played and lead the sneakpeek/spypic game with the C63 coupe... Just sayin...

Awesome review OP!!! Keep em coming! Lots of grumpy posts on the forum lately IMO, and your review is a breath of fresh mountain air...

Just noticed the exposed blue elastic bands at the rear of the new x wing, similar to those on the 9493 (doubled up, even).... Darth Vader voice: "Noooooooooooooooooooooo....":(

The sets are ugly and even if they are movie accurate than its JJs fault. Hate the colors, if the colors are correct than its also JJs fault. From reading this thread I know the entire two and a half hour movie frame by frame.

I believe it was Johan van der Smutt, aka Goldmember, who famously said: "there is just no pleasing you..."...

Wanted to add that the 7965 MFs "intermediate ring" around the cockpit has been removed, so the cockpit sits a bit further back now. But it does seem to be the old mould. Still, by sitting further back the proportions of the cockpit also look a bit better, to go with that flatter overall design. I'm therefore getting the new MF and turning 7965 into an Outrider...

Hey guys, first post here. I immediately compared the new MF to the 7965 and the stud count in length, width and circumference seems identical. However, the new MF is at least two full brick heights thinner (the incline on the top panels is reduced) and that changes the proportions of the mandibles in a positive way... Although the parts count differs little, the main structure seems quite different.
