(...) I certainly didn't have an interest in a Sith Infiltrator or Gungan Sub for my Castles of Pirates stuff, but I found a WalMart that has them for $10 each. Open 'em for parts or just hang onto to 'em for now and trade/sell 'em later to get real (...) (24 years ago, 22-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I'd be inclined to open them for parts. The SW sets (especially, it seems the Sith Infiltrator) have done a fairly decent job of saturating the market, so you'd have to hang onto them for quite a while before getting a good return. Parts, (...) (24 years ago, 22-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle)

Ever since I acquired every set in the Belville fairy tale Castle series, I have wanted to build one large Castle using all the pieces possible. It was quite difficult considering I was limited to the Belville colors -- adding regular LEGO® colored (...)

(...) The Gungan sub is also a very good parts pack. It isn't mentioned as often (it's almost a well kept secret). Lots of dark grey and blue slopes and plates. A bunch of useful figures (which you don't get so many of in the Sith Infiltrator), a (...) (24 years ago, 22-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle)

Another nice thing about the Gungan Sub is that it has the Star Wars hood in Brown. I think, but am not positive, that it is the only set that has one. What is the "unofficial" name of this hood? I have seen people call some hoods "cowls", but am (...) (24 years ago, 22-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) I call them Star Wars hoods, big hoods, new hoods. (sounds like Dr. Seuss, no?) The old ones I call: Old hoods, small hoods, classic hoods, or forestmen or wolfpack hoods. Any others? -- Pawel (24 years ago, 22-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle)

(...) Correct you are! It's the only SW set (well, only LEGO set) to come with the young version of Obi-Wan... (...) Don't think this hood has an unofficial name yet-- but yes, I'm pretty sure that 'cowl' referrs to the Peasant/Wolfpack hoods. (...) (24 years ago, 22-Sep-00, to lugnet.castle)
