I doubt that TLG would have redesigned their minifigs in 1998 just because
they were working on an unfinalized deal with Lucasfilm, and they were
thinking about ways to create Yodas and Chewbaccas.

Party pooper!  :-(

Just remember: I've got plenty of opinions, and many of them are wrong.

I think you may be right, though! -- I tried putting a few 1x2 bricks into a
couple of the new torsos, and while it seemed like it'd hold better, it sure
didn't seem to, just as you'd said.


It's still interesting that the new torsos appeared in a limited-release
'theme' (the soccer sets).  I don't have any of those sets handy, I wonder
if *all* the 'figs in those sets had the cross-hairs torso?

Another weird thing is that I saw one old torso and one new torso in the
same set a couple months ago!  :-o
