(...) Hmm. . .so the Rebel Pilot in Partsref is the X-Wing/B-Wing/Snowspeeder pattern, not the A-Wing pattern. That's good to know. TWS Garrison (23 years ago, 9-Apr-01, to lugnet.db.inv, lugnet.db.brictionary)

Well, the half-octagonal <part:6066> is "Castle Turret Top 4 x 8 x 2 & 1/3" according to LDRAW, so this one could be similar - perhaps "Castle Turret Corner 7 x 7 x 2 & 1/3".
