So many things logicaly wrong with the Naboo Starfighter and the hanger. Like it is physicaly impossible for them to land back into those gaps down the side, but of course it is also impossible for them to land full stop.
But the design is so godamn beautiful that I don't care. Call me crazy but I'd have one of those over an X-Wing anyday.
Who's to say they have to land in those alcoves? Maybe they just land in the hanger and some machine puts them back in their spots for storage. Naboo is depicted as a peaceful planet that doesn't do a lot of fighting.
In 1999 I had already outgrown playing with action figures, but I still found myself going out and adding the Naboo fighter to my collection. It is the only Episode I related toy I bought.
