(...) Thanks for that. I was wondering how long it would take to get mirrored. Nice to see a good range of silly hairdos in the trailer. I wonder if this is George Lucas' idea of a subtle pre-cursor to Leia? He's just a great big kid really. I (...) (23 years ago, 12-Nov-01, to lugnet.starwars)

Someone was asking about doing the Trilogy in Lego last night and I remembered Mr. Fujita's wonderful depiction of the 3 movies (a-way back when), but now I can't find a working link to it-- anyone know if there's a new address? DaveE (23 years ago, 9-Nov-01, to lugnet.starwars)

Standout has to be set 7139 Ewok Attack. Best value non-figpack figpack in the range. Cool pieces include the stormie and scout, two Stubbies(c), hang-glider wings and half a tree's worth of brown bricks. Ewok head-piece may be the crummiest effort (...) (23 years ago, 9-Nov-01, to lugnet.starwars)
