(...) The special edition costs 39,90. Add the 25,00 for shipping to the United States and you get 64.90, which at today's exchange rate is about $102.29. That seems crazy, but this is a reference book with 800+ pages and 8000 color photographs (...) (16 years ago, 28-Jun-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

Hi. If someone out there has a copy of the 7660 Naboo Starfighter and you have a copy of the instructions you could help me out a lot. I need the 7-digit serial number that is next to the curved 2x6 light stone/grey slope. This part is only (...) (16 years ago, 27-Jun-08, to lugnet.general)
