  Re: Brief AT-ST review
 
I'm trying to think of _any_ vehicle from _any_ movie ... the Rebels seemed to do their fighting in spaceships. The only time they had a serious ground battle, they got whipped bad (on Hoth). Oh well, I guess making up new stuff is what LEGOs are (...) (24 years ago, 22-Dec-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Just stopped by the TRU in Everett and grabbed an AT-ST while xmas shopping for my wife. >:) Here's what I thought: Good set (not great), considering the price.

  Shuttle / AT-ST / Watto finally in BC
 
Hello, all you British Columbia lugnetters, I don't know if this is a scoop or not, but I just found the remaining three 2001 SW sets at the TRU between Lougheed Hwy and Highway #1 in Coquitlam (right near the SilverCity). Anyways, I've been (...) (24 years ago, 21-Dec-00, to lugnet.starwars)

It's a real shame they didn't release the Darth Vader TIE Fighter that looked more like that mock up model that they had. A 2m super star destryoyer. Holy cow that would be fun. (24 years ago, 21-Dec-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Are you sure that the AT-ST is only $9.97? That seems pretty reasonable for that set. I woudl have expected more like $15 or $20.

(...) I doubt that a better AT-ST could have been accomplished at the $10 price point...the thing is...it shouldn't have been done at the $10 price point - it's just too complex to be done well with such frugality.
