Haven't seen much yet about these, so I thought I'd give it a detailed review! Athearn put quite a bit of work into this new shell, and even though it's a bit expensive at MSRP, they did make a fine model!


Darth Santa Fe, doing weird and challenging projects for the fun of it!

It's a little bittersweet seeing the original F7 tooling retired after so many decades. The replacement looks nice though, and it's good to see the reliable old chassis still being used. Good video!

Amazing how plastic has equaled brass in realism.
