  SW Trilogy (SE) VHS Nov. '00 Release - Widescreen?
 
Did anyone buy the VHS version of the SW Trilogy Special Edition that was released last November? I'm wondering if it's widescreen or letterboxed, or if it's just pan and scan. It's a three-tape set with a plastic slipcover. Unfortunately, it (...) (24 years ago, 18-Feb-01, to lugnet.starwars)

  Re: Interview with LEGO at Toy Fair
 
Heh, then your minifigs are holding it backwards... With a few accessories, it can become quite a respectable weapon, as my SAW and assault-rifle with scope and grenade launcher illustrate on my brickbay site illustrate... Even by itself, pointed (...) (24 years ago, 17-Feb-01, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) That piece is a camera, it look's nothing like a blaster and it never has. Incidentally I have set 6083. Steve (24 years ago, 17-Feb-01, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Interview with LEGO at Toy Fair
 
(...) Ahh, the big old video camera. Star Wars battles are fought mainly by guys shouting through megaphones and shooting unflattering video footage of the enemy. Like a vicious paparazzi attack. But you can stick a couple of megaphones together and (...) (24 years ago, 17-Feb-01, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Its DONE!!!!!! (after 1.5 hours)
 
I made a UCS tie defender, and it needed a fact sheet on the bottom of the stand like the other ucs models. I just needed to make one! I fanally finished it, so I'll give it to you guys as a teaser to a web page I should have up by the end of Feb (...) (24 years ago, 17-Feb-01, to lugnet.starwars)

  Re: Interview with LEGO at Toy Fair
 
Well, does anyone remember the "gun" pieces that came with the old Space sets? Those would have been PERFECT Star Wars blasters. You can kind of see the mini-fig holding it in this pic (URL) is a great picture of what I am talking about, the top (...) (24 years ago, 17-Feb-01, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: A-Wing and B-Wing
 
(...) I have a similair story, not involving star wars though. Recently I built a shell for a Ferrari F40, no floor or underside, just two sides linking front to back. For astetic reasons the sides were split into two sections and were only conneted (...) (24 years ago, 16-Feb-01, to lugnet.starwars)

  Re: A-Wing and B-Wing
 
(...) Thanks! It may look sturdy, but the main wing is actually quite fragile. the rest of it holds together really well, though. :) (...) Well, I *did* have to include all the weapons listed... ;) (...) Thanks! Jeff (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Interview with LEGO at Toy Fair
 
(...) While I agree that we should've gotten some blasters, we didn't *JUST* get "the old megaphone piece." We also got some really nifty lightsabers. Lego could have simply bundled in an old antenna piece in the appropriate colors and I don't think (...) (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.starwars)  
 
  Re: A-Wing and B-Wing
 
(...) Excellent B-Wing! I think that's how LEGO should have made theirs. The one they released is a bit flimsy, and yours has the sturdiness present that makes it look like a hefty starfighter. I also like the intake vents and the mass o' stuff in (...) (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.starwars)

  Re: Interview with LEGO at Toy Fair
 
(...) Quite to the contrary. I would hope that they have gone back to their core values. If pre-molded guns were to be included in the sets, I would have to boycott that theme, as I have done with every theme incorporating pre-molded guns to date. (...)

  Re: Interview with LEGO at Toy Fair
 
(...) It amused me as well, because Lucas always described Star Wars as half Samurai movie and half Western. So, in the Ninja sets we get katanas and muskets, in the Wild West sets we get revolvers and rifles, and in the Star Wars sets, we get... (...) (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.starwars)

  Re: Interview with LEGO at Toy Fair
 
(...) Thanks for the heads-up. That was very interesting. I was amused by the answer to the gun questionProps? Props? Correct me if I'm wrong, but doesn't every Western set box, insructios, and artwork show the figs brandishing guns? Don't most of (...) (24 years ago, 14-Feb-01, to lugnet.starwars)
