Thanks for posting this! Wow, that Ogel Sub
is pretty neat--at least those arms and that
canopy, anyways. I may have to get me one of
those.
But man-oh-man, do those Final Duel sets stink.
The only redeeming value is the one with the
stormtrooper and imperial officer--for the
stormtrooper and the imperial officer, 'natch.

You mean the one with the German SS officer? Why, I think it looks simply
yummy! 'Sposing I'll find myself with a goodly number of these ones :P

Holy crap!
Anyone else noticing those (I assume clicky) new ball-joints in the arms
of the sub? Sweet. I just hope the joints and the arms are seperate parts -
could Lego be making Megabloks-style uber-specialized arms? let's hope not.
On another note, I'm amazed. I never thought they'd come up with a decent
use for those Jack Stone canopy pieces :)
-jeremiah-
PS- the SW sets are far cooler than I thought they could produce at such a
small size.

If you're referring to the lower arms of the Blok-Bot sets, I agree that
they're of very limited utility. Not as limited as nearly the entire
inventory of the Bionicle line, of course, but still somewhat limited.

It must be the Jack Stone piece that is driving up the cost. Haven't you
noticed that the Jack Stone sets are priced like they are made of "gold"? :)

Can anyone figure out just what color the minifig to the left of Luke is?
It looks almost like a new color of green - olive green, perhaps?
Could this be a hint of yet another color of bricks to play with?? We can
only hope!!

...I'm not sure on this one yet, but it does look pro missing...
...Can anyone make out the details on those arms? They look like new pieces in
the joints.

..."stink"? For $13 I think they are great! 6 figs including an imperial officer
and storm trooper, a couple train rails, and some assorted plates for that
chair. Not bad at all (and a relatively cheap source of storm troopers!
woohoo!!! [although personally, I'd love the $13 pack of 6 storm troopers, but
I'll take what I can get :-)

I've been looking at it all morning, and I'd have to bet on the color being the
standard dark grey. Granted, the leg looks a bit different in color than the
dark grey plate that the fig is standing on, but the color difference doesn't
seem large enough to chalk up to anything other than various lighting
angles. Check out the fig's leg as compared to the dark grey plate stud next
to it, for example - they seem to be identical.
Anyway, that's just my thought on it ... they seem too similar to be different
:P

Not to mention that all of those Imperial soldier fellas wore either black
or gray uniforms. I can't recall one wearing any sort of green.

Isn't Professor Snape's head (I think it was his) from the Harry Potter LEGO
sets an olive green? One of the heads really looked that color on the box,
but I couldn't see the pieces themselves. It was definitely not grey in
this case.

Snape's head is glow-in-the-dark color. Don't ask me why. Peeve's head
(actually, all ghost heads) are grey.
I'm thinking the Imperial is dressed in grey. I have been wrong before.

What Jack Stone piece? The only Jack Stonesque piece in Final
Duel is the Life on Mars portal piece on the section with the
rails, AFAIK.

You are most likely correct. Time will tell...
