Lol now do Imperial I vs Imperial II star destroyers.

[–] Maultasche@feddit.de 9 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (1 children)

The difference is actually a bit more noticeable, as the Imperial II communications tower definitely had a different design from the Imperial I tractor beam array (on top of the bridge). The other differences between both are probably not even visible. Victory I and Victory II on the other hand, I'm not sure about the visual differences.

Doesn't the victory 1 have the giant "wings" in an x shape in the side and the victory 2 doesn't?

[–] Maultasche@feddit.de 2 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Both versions have the atmospheric maneuvering surfaces.

Can they really open up outside of fanart? In all official artworks I've seen they look pretty connected and rigid.

Oh wild. I didn't even know the victory 1 and 2 were canon tbh. I was thinking of it from Tie Fighter.

Or New Hope vs Empire Strikes Back Millennium Falcon.

Wasn't there something about a missing hallway inside the ship in one of the films?

[–] Xbeam@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

The big difference in the models are the landing gears. In A New Hope there are only three. After that, there are five.

I don't know about the missing hallway, but now I'm curious.

[–] Maultasche@feddit.de 2 points 11 months ago

I can't find it anymore, but I think it was something about the second hallway to the main cargo bay.
