Somebody must have smuggled those in under the Imperial Disney radar. Better snatch those up if you want any.

This is the Ban Dai Star Wars kit I mentioned. After closer inspection, I realized it isn't the Disney Ban Dai I thought it was. I've been wanting to do an X-Wing fighter since the 70s when Star Wars first came out.

It is indeed a Disney licensed product, but not a kit relating to episode VII.
The export restrictions are more stringent when it comes to the eVII X-Wing, Falcon, figures etc.

Anyway, nice catch!

I wasn't sure but kind of figured it wasn't related to Star Wars VII. A nice indeed it was since it was the only one he had in stock.

Yup, that's the original trilogy T-65 X-Wing with the full circle engine intakes. The new T-70 X-Wings have half circle intakes.
