Star Wars DeAgostini Miniatures

Not to be confused with the more recent Altaya line, the DeAgostini or Atlas Spaceships & Vehicles Line is the original French subscription series of diecast models and magazines. By 2011, DeAgostini released 82 ships including bonus Eta-2 and Death Star I. Often you will see them listed as "Atlas" since that's the company that produced them under DeAgostini.

Each ship came in a small acrylic case with a planetary background. You got a magazine with each release as well, which focused on the main vehicle and 1-2 adjacent ships or characters. The non-French releases had larger magazines, go figure. English version came out in the UK, albeit difficult to find.

For scales and sizes, see the DeAgostini Scale List. The black bases are 8.85 cm x 11.75 cm (3 1/2 x 4 5/8 in.), except for the AT-RT which has a larger base.

Pretty good model of the Falcon for the size.

Could have been good. The worst part is that the spirals on the lasers, which should be emblems, are instead molded on.

Not bad. I like the proportions.

Not bad - R2 and the canopy are simplified.

Very rough detail, especially in the head section. The side blasters will break easily.

It's not bad for a Death Star. Looks great on a Titanium stand.

Really rough casting, but good proportions.

Overall, not bad. The railing is very thick for the size.

One of the larger diecasts, it looks pretty good to me.

Very large model, wings seem too small

Looks like it spent too much time in the oven.

Really nice size with lots of good paint, especially the underside.

Really nice and detailed model.

Good in some areas, simplified in others (like ion turret).

Nice proportions, better than the Titanium.

Great until you see the canopy is painted on

Love the fine details on the wings.

I like the pose, but the details and silver canopy don't look great.

Not bad, there's a weird angle along the top that seems off, maybe it's just me.

Honestly, this one is great. No complaints.

Probably not the best, but I do like the weathering on it.

Cockpit is painted on, but good otherwise.

Really great detail, nice model.

Very nice. My only issue is the wing root lasers are too wide apart.

Not bad, great color.

I love the colors they used, great model.

Detail is great, but they didn't paint the cockpit windows.

Great little model, definitely beats the Titanium.

Honestly, this one is pretty awesome, especially the details on the wheel spikes.

I think this one is ugly with the raised panel lines.

Overly smooth, like they used the Tantive III as reference.

Great detail & size, but the grey misted weathering is strange. It's on a larger base than other minis.

I really love the detail and the size. Weathering is light but nice!

Great detail. The odd grey misting on the back is strange.

Nice to see one in CIS scheme.

Really nice size. The 2 front "prongs" are often angled inward, which isn't accurate.

Exceptional detail, looks great on a Titanium stand.

Not bad, the chrome is better than most at the time.

Small, but great detail. Wish the feet didn't have the pads for screws.

A little small and under-detailed, but not bad.

Surprising how nice it is, also quite large.

I thought the stance was too wide and the railing too thick. Otherwise, not bad.

My favorite Hailfire model - love the details on the missiles. FYI: this represents the unseen Kashyyyk variant.

Not bad, looks slightly better than the Titanium

Really amazing detail and paint. Great model

Like the other speeder bikes, it has great detail.

Impressive look and size. Don't break the lookout tower!

Very nice, great paint and detail.

Super small, but good detail. Wish it was bigger.

Love seeing the ball turrets. I just wish the front blasters were a little bigger

Intricate detail and great paint. Side guns pointed downward for some reason

Much better than Titanium, amazing paintwork.

Fantastic model. Check out the bluish coloration on the center sprocket

Great detail, just don't break the blaster

Very very smooth. I wish it was better

Larger than most of the DA stuff and exceptionally detailed. Wings are fragile

Really nice looking, paint colors look spot-on

Not many Zam's Airspeeder models out there, and I think this one is pretty good.

Yellow painted canopies look bad, but the tail looks great. Hallmark is better.

Nice model, on par with Titanium.

Not a bad model, but I'm not a fan of the spine. Taco Bell released a better version of Cloud City in one of their early 2000's kid's meals.

Color is a little bluish, but great detail.

Fantastic paintwork and good size.

Love that they did a Crawler, great detail overall.

Great detail, maybe a little over-weathered.

Good detail for what is essentially an accessory.

Very nice model and size, great proportions.

Love the paint, but it's really small IMO.

Love that they did one - excellent detail and paint. Perfect mini

Very nice size and detail.

Really amazing detail, just don't break anything.

Love the model, but the weathering is weird.

Smooth, bad detail, weird yellow misting.

Fantastic model that even uses real string to represent the ropes.

Really cool to see this made, and it's really chonky too.

Nice model and paint, but small.

One of my favorite vehicles - great details and paint.

Very fine detail and paintwork. No one else makes one, so I love it.

Not bad at all. I love the proportions of the pod to the engines.

Proportionally, this is nice. Detail wise, I think it could be better. Why is the energy arc green?
