In case you missed it on RTL you can find a picture of a new flyer/catalogue at (URL) which has a picture of minifigs of Han and Boba Fett as well as a B-wing. Kya (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.general)

Not bad...but one question...where are the Stormtroopers? (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.general)

(...) [added lugnet.starwars] And Lego's Millennium Falcon, albeit in shadow. And who is it underneath Luke's lightsabre? Uncle Owen? There don't seem to be any new E1 sets, as rumoured. :: paul (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.starwars)

(...) And Princess Leia! And C-3PO! And Chewie! "But [the AFOLs] ask the impossible... I need more men!" "Then perhaps you can tell [them] when [they] arrive..." "The [AFOLs are] coming here?" "That is correct, [TLG]. And [they are] most displeased (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.general)

(...) The minifig under the lightsaber appears to be Han Solo. I'm really amazed by these sets, even with the small size of the pictures. <speculation> The Falcon seems pretty hefty. The front mandibles look to be the new x-wing style wings with (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Great stuff. I guess we know know that there will be a Millenium Falcon and probably a Slave I as well seeing the Boba Fett fig. But like everyone else were are the Storm Troopers and the other main Characters like Leia, C-3PO, and Chewie? I (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.general)

(...) I wouldn't say that. If TLG was to produce the Millenium Falcon in it's proper size, it would be a far too large set to sell. (Ok, so I know that a lot of people around here would buy it, but for most kids it would be too large.) LEGO usually (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) That would have been an unforgivable error were it not for the fact I like Lego more than Star Wars. Whoops. Maybe I should go back to lurking here and dreaming of grey bricks.... (...) same here :: paul (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I'd have to agree... also, bear in mind that a Falcon the size of an X-Wing is still a lot bigger than the X-Wing just in terms of pieces, etc., since it's a lot more bulky, and doesn't have real 'wings' or a thin body... But usually, the toy (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) From what I can tell, the Gungan Sub is *WAY* bigger than it "should" be. eric (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Yes, and the cockpit is one part, not three distinct ones. Good for parts, poor representation of what it was in the movie. :( (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I don't think I would say that. The Gungan Sub is terribly misconfigured as to the version in the Movie which had all 3 characters in one compartment with 2 "Cargo compartments" on either side. I personally think that this model was the 2nd (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) While that is of course true, it still looks ousized to me. If you take a standard minifig as being ~6 feet tall, and look at how big the model is, and compare it to the sketches in the Episode One Amazing Cut-Aways book... it's huge. Roughly (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

Wow! I am like soooooo glad they decided to do a B-wing. Boba Fett looks good. Is it me or is his helmet a bit box shaped? I wonder what sort of head they'll have under it. Han looks like a twit (I still think the Luke minifig looks constapated), (...) (25 years ago, 7-Oct-99, to lugnet.general)
