Look at this! This is a good builder. Not only is the front end designed correctly but the roof and windows are very authentic. Look at that engine! (URL) (21 years ago, 26-Feb-05, to lugnet.technic)

FWIW there was a price on the death star, and I think it was $659.00, when I first looked on the 24/02, but then they removed it. "Kerry Raymond" <kraymond@iprimus.com.au> wrote in message news:ICHL0v.12HD@lugnet.com... (...) (21 years ago, 26-Feb-05, to lugnet.loc.au)

(...) OK. Looks like USA AFOLs are ambivalent about this one. So when TLG does celebrate the 50th in the USA in 2023, many of you will be in your 50's and 60's.
