I asked if I could purchase the AT-AT Walker from the LEGO Roadshow.....not a chance came the reply ;-( You have to wonder though how they go about building such monsters.....I read somewhere that a prototype is built then a second is built with the (...)

That'll be the day, Sanjay. It would be greedy enough to ask for a minifig- scale Millenium Falcon, let alone an AT-AT or a Death Star (please). Even a nanofig-scale Death Star would take up an entire room. (25 years ago, 9-May-99, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)

Look, don't be a smartass. I live for today; I rush through life so I can savor it quicker. Let's not argue about that. Honestly. This is a Star Wars Lego board, not aa 'piss of Jonas' board. (25 years ago, 9-May-99, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build, lugnet.off-topic.fun)

I'm sort of a 'speed builder'. I'm in such a hurry to see the finished product that I hurry to finish. I never prolong anything. I live in the now. (25 years ago, 9-May-99, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)

(...) Probably not as hard as the Super Car was. Or the Big Rig Truck - the 1700+ piece set. That was an exhausting set.
