Just seems like overkill to me and doubt that there would be that many. As far as the rest it seems (...) (25 years ago, 12-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.technic)

That'd be kinda like the one that features R2D2 and the battle (...) (25 years ago, 12-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.technic)

Here are some of my thoughts: Slave I has very little (...) (25 years ago, 12-Oct-99, to lugnet.robotics, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.technic)
