(...) Yeah they're $70 here in Cali too. Although you can get it from the Lego Outlets for $50. There are a number of sets - namely alpha team and mars - that have been discounted by $5. sun (23 years ago, 17-Nov-01, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.starwars)

There's another trailer available for download on the starwars.com page called "Forbidden Love." It's about 2 minutes long, probably the one that will be with the Harry Potter movie. I like this one too. Can't wait for Ep II now! Adam (23 years ago, 16-Nov-01, to lugnet.starwars)
