At the recent Shizuoka Hobby Show, Star Wars and Gundam dioramas nearly stole the whole damn show.
The level of detail in these miniature masterpieces is stunning. They’re like those miniature cities found in old Toho monster flicks that a man-in-a-suit would stomp through a model town.
But he wouldn’t stomp through these. He’d stop dead in his tracks and simply say, “No”.

Only issue I have is with the Death Star. It has visible, human-scaled ‘levels’, despite the thing being hundreds (if not thousands) of miles in diameter (comparable to a small moon), meaning even huge, recognisable landmarks to us must be indistinguishable on the model.
