  Twin Pod Cloud Cruiser @ Target
 
I picked up the new Star Wars Twin Pod Cloud Cruiser at Target (Cary, NC) this morningfor $10. It was the only 2002 set they had. I accent color suspected to be the new brick red color is actually brown. Other than this - this is an awesome set for (...)

  Re: Star Wars Ep 1 Chess Set
 
(...) Benjamin, Monica, Thanks for the comments ! I got to admit I did not think of Shmi as a dark side character but as you put it without her there would be no Dark Lord of Sith. I will have pics of a new version with the new Droidekas from SW (...) (23 years ago, 16-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.gaming)
 
  Re: Star Wars Ep 1 Chess Set
 
I'd probably choose Obi-Wan over Anakin, but that's only because Anakin bugged me :). As far as a "high" level female baddie, how about call her Shmi since after all, she did give birth to the future Dark Lord of the Sith.... mo (...) (23 years ago, 16-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.gaming)
 
  Re: SW 2002 sightings....
 
Humph...nothing yet for ANY 2002 sets at my local TRU and Walmarts (in Utah). What gives? In fact, I even had one Wal-mart person tell me that their Wal-mart wasn't going to even carry Star Wars LEGO anymore....must be a rogue Wal-mart. Anyone else (...)

  Re: Falcon Availability
 
I called LEGO on this last week... it's been officially discontinued. Not found on their website either. (23 years ago, 14-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Star Wars Ep 1 Chess Set
 
(...) The set is very nice....I like your placement of players on the "light side". I especially like R2 and C3PO's placement as "bishops" and the fighters as the "rooks". Good choice to have gungans (jar-jars) as the "pawns". On the dark-side, I (...) (23 years ago, 14-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.gaming)
 
  Star Wars Ep 1 Chess Set
 
Can't seem to get chess sets out of my mind. Thought I would take a hand at a minifig intensive Chess Set based on Star Wars Episode 1. And as a side benefit, it got rid of all those pesky Jar Jar minifigs. Pics are here: (URL) - black is the Evil (...) (23 years ago, 14-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.gaming) !

  UCS Tie at TRU
 
My local TRU has a huge stack of UCS Tie Interceptors for $69 each. Seems like a good deal to me, but before I buy one (or more) I thought I should post about it and see if that's such a good deal, or rare. I was under the impression that the UCS (...)

  Re: SW 2002 sightings....
 
Yes, Maine before Michigan...just when I thought I was on the most remote fringes of the distribution lines. Overall, it seems WalMart and TRU are neck-and-neck this year as far as first sightings. On the basis of substance of those first sightings, (...) (23 years ago, 13-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.market.shopping)
 
  Re: NEW 2002!!! MONSTERS!!! YODA!!!
 
(...) These new sets sound ok, but I bet they'll all include some pointless figs, such as *yet another* cameraman! When is TLG going to put out some Studio sets that are actually useful. How about some lighting rigs that actually light up?! I know (...) (23 years ago, 13-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.castle)
 
  Re: SW 2002 sightings....
 
(...) Hey Matt (and everyone), When you make these great finds, would you xpost them to .market.shopping as well? There are some who aren't SW fans or subscribers who I'm sure would love to hear about these. Thanks! Maine first?!? Wow, it truly is (...)
