  Re: Star Wars fixes
 
Arguably neither Jar Jar nor R2-D2 are minifigs.. minifigs have normal heads which rules out Jar Jar, no? And if R-D2 is one, so is the E1 droid, and so is a skeleton. (...) (26 years ago, 6-May-99, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Star Wars fixes
 
(...) My vote would be to keep the count of figures as the number of mini-figs (of course for Scala this should be the number of dolls, etc). I would not count Sebulba as a figure. There's actually a can of worms here... Why do we have this one (...) (26 years ago, 6-May-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Star Wars fixes
 
(...) Gasgano has a non-skeleton, new minifig head, atop a "Space Chainsaw Handle" (1), with two pairs of limbs from the new driods (2). (...) I would count him as a figure, only if octopi, manta rays, and cats are too. Cheers, - jsproat 1. Or (...) (26 years ago, 6-May-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Star Wars fixes
 
(...) "When I was a kid" :o) it used to be so simple. :) Well, anyway, the field says "Figures" and not "Minifigs." So if Gasgano is counted, the pit droids should probably count. But the pit droids can't count because they're just regular pieces. (...) (26 years ago, 6-May-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: A couple of data points
 
(...) If it's not an official piece count, it typically goes in as the number followed by a question mark, with some explanatory comments in an admin field. In many cases the source is also logged in the admin field even when it does come from the (...) (26 years ago, 6-May-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: A couple of data points
 
(...) Out of curiosity, Todd, what if they were from other sources, say one of each? Would you use it with some behind the scenes method of flagging it as imperfect, or would you not use it at all? (26 years ago, 6-May-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Star Wars fixes
 
(...) Yah I goofed :-, One of the alien drivers (Gasgano?) is constructed from more-or-less ordinary pieces; is that counted as a minifig? The other driver is a single molded piece, too... (...) Yep. Cheers, - jsproat (26 years ago, 6-May-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Star Wars fixes
 
(...) Hey Todd, the box count for 7150 is 407, I don't have the other boxes handy but I will check them tomorrow night if nobody else does before then. Mike (26 years ago, 6-May-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Star Wars fixes
 
(...) Heh heh, where did the "not 4" come from? It's currently listed as 7 -- for Anakin, R2, Jar Jar, Qui-Gon, Padme, Sebulba, and Gasgano. (...) Where do the piece counts come from? - Directly from the box (official count)? - From a catalog (...) (26 years ago, 6-May-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
 
  Re: Star Wars fixes
 
(...) Nix this fix -- I goofed here. The others are good, though. Cheers, - jsproat (26 years ago, 6-May-99, to lugnet.admin.database)
