Take Time Cruisers as an example (no alternate models), (...) (26 years ago, 23-Jan-99, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | (...) You weren't. I was trying to be funny. (...) Isn't it funny (and a bit sad) how the SW sets are more "LEGO" than the regular System sets (ie, Adventurers, Town Center, etc.). The new pieces are less specialized, the sets build reasonable (...) (26 years ago, 23-Jan-99, to lugnet.general)

| | | | | | | | | (...) That's exactly what came to my mind, while reading Larry's dear lego post, stating that a clueless "brainy" from TLG expresed that "juniorization" is the way to go for all sets, and TLG is happy with that. Selçuk (26 years ago, 24-Jan-99, to lugnet.general)

With the previously noted exception of the town junior double-sloped piece for the x-wing rear landing gear, I'm very impressed with the construction and new piece selection of the SW sets.
