I believe they wouldn’t be able to use swastikas and still legally sell in Germany.

That symbol featured quite prominently in the films. Was there a special murfled version made for the German market? Maybe lego could do the same, similar to what they did with the Dino Attack theme.

Not that I particularly want to see a swastika in an official set(1) or anything, but I would prefer the sets to be true to the source material.

(...) Don't worry, Al, you may be able to take comfort that the sets include (URL) new guns> in lieu of the murflable symbols. No swastikas(1), but plenty of guns! No problems there! Cheers Richie Dulin (1)IANAN either (17 years ago, 21-Jun-07, to lugnet.mediawatch, lugnet.build.military, FTX)
