| | Review of 6709 Tribal Chief
|
|
We were at Santa's Village today, and I got this set because it was pre-'98, and it was the only LEGO SYSTEM set in the gift shop. It was $6.99 Canadian, which gives it an obvious con- this thing has the highest cost per piece of anything ever (...) (24 years ago, 6-Aug-00, to lugnet.reviews)

I just got my first S@H purchase today! Included was my 3340. Very nice little minifig pack. Another Maul never hurts (more wraiths for my CW Undead Army! Mwahaha!) Vader is cool too. But the real gem of this set is the "Unique Minifig", the (...) (24 years ago, 17-Jul-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.reviews, lugnet.castle.org.cw)

Yup, much better...just gutted the Falcon and replaced all the goofy red and blue parts with light and dark grey pieces, what an improvement! UCS X-Wing is next (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.starwars)

I totally agree that TLG should have used more light gray than they did. When I had finished building mine, I compared it to a picture in the Star Wars Technical Journal by Shane Johnson. While the Lego model was very close in appearence to an (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.starwars)

Oh, gotcha...well, it's actually both. The piping and trim is blue, as is the radar dishes stuck to the outboard sides of the "wings." There is also a bit of dark grey paneling on the outboard sides as well. There are some unique pieces, too. (24 years ago, 10-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.starwars)
