I think that we uber-nerds know a little too much for our own good.... and
speculate a thousand times as much. I don't blame them for trying to keep
their lives as uncluttered of our meaningless trivia as they do. I mean,
they've got a bunch of meaningless trivia of their own to worry about.
SW sets are great, especially for parts, but when it comes down to it I
would prefer some original TLG Space designs. With a license/tie-in comes
awkward obligations to limit what you can see in a set, and frankly I miss
seeing original designs because every bit of inspiration I get from others
(even TLG) is precious to me. That's why I always prefer to see peoples'
MOCs as opposed to their "perfect rendition of the Millenium Falcon"[1].
