Rewrites: June 2016 & April 2019
Here comes one of my longest "Eaglemoss vs. The World" articles to date. I was recently able to get my hands on Eaglemoss' Shuttlecraft Collection.

Normally I don't order stuff directly from Eaglemoss because they have a tendency to advertise stuff that they don't even have in stock. And after you order it, I've heard horror tales about waiting one or more months to get your items. As was the case with this set, I did get a notice AFTER they got my money that the shuttlecraft were on backorder. But surprisingly, they came about two weeks later so I think I fared rather well.
Editor's Note (June 2016): When I bought my set directly from Eaglemoss, I paid $75 plus shipping for the set. When I looked up the pricing for this article's re-write, I see that Eaglemoss now wants $100 plus shipping and I've seen the entire set on eBay for around $100 with shipping included. This will become relevant later on in this article when I start giving my thoughts and recommendations.
