U-wing or Krennic's shuttle

[lucalego]

Money no object: the Rebel U-wing or Director Krennic's Imperial Shuttle?

 

Pros and cons of each would be greatly appreciated!

For investment or personal build?

I'd go Krennics Shuttle, to be honest.  I thought the U-wing was going to be a great ship, and while it's not bad, the transport aspect of the U-wing is so small that you can barely fit bistan in there.  Krennic's shuttle on the other hand is one of the best new designs of a Star Wars ship of the last two films. The minifigures are also really good in that one.

Yeah, the transport room is the reason why I don't know which to get. I really like the rebel Rogue One battle pack but I'm not sure I'll even get any inside the hold!
Do you know if there's a way of modding the hold to make more room?

I´d go with Krennic´s then but U wing has also been discounted recently too. I assume both wil retire this winter.

I like Krennics ship a lot. That ship has a mysterious black look on it.....

I'm buying both once WalMart blows them both out on clearance. I think they are both nice looking designs.

I'm sure both will be decent investments, if they are retired this year, which I suspect will be the case, since we have the Last Jedi and the Han Solo movie coming within a year from now.

Krennic Shuttle every day, I have one and it's glorious. Minifigs are spot on as well.

Another vote for the Shuttle. I also like between this, IST, and a likely Kylo Ren proper shuttle down the road you can have a nice Shuttle display.

The big thing they screwed up on the U-Wing is the box art, looks way cooler to me with the wings in flying mode.

Krennic shuttle has my vote

In terms of the minifigures included in each set...
Will there be a third wave of RO sets? This could swing my choice considerably based on the collectabilty of each minifigure.
