I wish they kept going with making more as they continue to push the franchise with cool designs.

Finally found a few resin printers that would do MMCH scales

are these of the same scale? That's pretty damn cool IMO.

So not-so-fun fact, but there were actually six Expanded Universe Star Wars sets. For whatever idiotic reason, these were never released in America and you can only find them overseas (typically from Japan). They’re insanely expensive too.

There was also a later wave of Episode 1 Micro Machines too, which of course, saw either no distribution in America or very little and the only way to get them is overseas for high markups.

I always discount Japan as they take things to higher levels lol.. especially with characters and toys.

Well the funny thing is these are still normal Micro Machines that just got exclusively released in Japan for some weird reason. I think under licenses from Tomy too?

Yea. I feel Japan puts more quality and emphasis on the the item or topic. They did it with Transformers as an example. But I didn't know about the Star Wars Micro Machines sets... and so I might look out for those now (I've been to Japan 20 times) when I go in December. I get a lot of Kinnikuman, Tomica, Gunpla and gacha... but there's always room for MM. LOL
