(...) It has to be one of the best engineered Technic sets ever. I suspect the Destroyer Droid will be even better... I already have 3, but I am not sure if I can afford to keep them all :-) Huw (26 years ago, 25-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)

Dear All, ASDA seems to be the place to go at present. My local has Mos Espa Podway reduced to £34.99. I had promised myself not to buy it as I considered it wildly overpriced on release but I weakened. Now I only have to hide it from my wife and (...) (26 years ago, 25-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)

This morning on Channel 4 (sometime between 7.15am and 7.30am), there was an advert for the Droid Development Kit. I only caught the end of it, but it basically had quite a few robots running about. Ben. P.S. I got my Battle Droid at the weekend, 22 (...) (26 years ago, 25-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.uk)
