I was weaned on Classic space, and I'll be extremely disappointed if Lego
abandons the SW line without producing an AT-AT and an Imperial Star Destroyer.
As much as I want a new 928, I want an AT-AT and ISD more.


In my opinion, I think SW is getting kind of old.

The line is already ancient by recent standards, and I fear that it will get
the same treatment as other themes.  Star Wars Lego brought me (and a lot of
other AFOLs) out of a very long dark age.  I am not in favour of treating the
SW line the same as Rock Raiders or Slizers (a year or two, then *poof* gone).


Of course, I'm sure most of .space wants to see a Space legend come sometime
in the near future. How bad could releasing a Space Legend damage the SW
line? I mean, come on! They don't sell Legends in stores anyway, so how
could that affect the sales of the SW line?

I'm all for producing a classic space legend.  That would be great.  However,
I have to admit that the re-introduction of the Galaxy Explorer would
drastically diminish the likelyhood of me springing for a Blockade Runner
set.  I would like to make my collection SW-complete, but my wallet is already
spread too thin with the sets currently in production.

(...) Star Wars is good stuff, but it really depends on the builder. As the old saying goes "beauty is in the eye of the beholder" or something like that. Anyway, I'm in SW for the parts, cuz they have a great selection. I'm not for theme (...) (23 years ago, 28-Mar-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars)
