Has anyone else seen this? I was taking a look at the skateboard park link in the lugnet.general thread "IS LEGO COPYING MEGA-BLOCKS NOW?" and spotted the following images? (URL) Raider Encounter appears to be 2 sets (ignore the display stand (...) (23 years ago, 2-Jan-02, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Um... I think you need a minor vocabulary lesson. :-) Trasparent: You can see through it and light passes through it. Opaque: You can not see through it nor does light pass through it.. Translucent: You can not see through it but light passes (...) (23 years ago, 2-Jan-02, to lugnet.starwars)

Hey, I managed to pick up all the new sets at Toys R Us in Oakville. They trickled in one at a time starting a few weeks ago with 8009 (R2D2), then Ewok Attack, them Final Duel I, II, Jedi Defense I, then a few more days (week before Christmas or (...) (23 years ago, 1-Jan-02, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) C'mon, these parts will show up elsewhere, and getting them in a common color like red is almost a lock. Whereas, it's now almost a lock that we'll never get this set in the proper color, the color that every other toy Cloud Car since the 80's (...)

(...) Since the combination of lego and star wars is the coolest combination of hobbies in the entire history of all civilization. And since, the Runner is thee coolest starship in all of star wars. And, in a week or so, when it finally arrives at (...) (23 years ago, 31-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | Dark Blue too (Re: New Dark Red Translucent?)
|

(...) I recently got the new Technic R2D2 set (8009). It has several parts with the new dark blue color. Some of the dark blue parts were noticeably translucent while the others were quite solid in color. TLC must still be working on their pigment (...) (23 years ago, 31-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) You can't be serious! That they chose red is, IMHO, just absolutely great. It's a orangish red anyway. There was a lot of orange in previous sets (snow speeder for instance) and I am glad to see these very useful parts come out in red rather (...)

I am considering buying this pricey set, but I wanted to see if everyone here thought it was worth it first. I have not seen one in person so it is hard to judge. Thanks, Chuck (23 years ago, 31-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) In my humble opinion the cloud car is rather spiffy actually. It seemed to scale with the the other starfighters and well constructed. In any event in the movies they seemed reddish to me anyway. My eyes! My eyes! What's the matter with them? (...) (23 years ago, 31-Dec-01, to lugnet.year.2002, lugnet.general, lugnet.starwars)

Actually I rejoice in the absence of printed legos. I can't stand stickers and really can't stand legos that have stuff imprinted on it. How many "glass" pieces have been ruined? The space stuff is really bad. They insist on putting horrible designs (...) (23 years ago, 31-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars)
