(...) Juniorized is an interesting term for the new Slave I. It looks to me like it uses at least as many parts as the old one, possibly more. Sure, it uses some of the new non-brick pieces, but honestly, with it's curved surfaces, it's a good (...) (23 years ago, 3-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)

Still, it's nice to have the hinge panels in tan in quantity. (...) True, it (...) (23 years ago, 3-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.year.2002)

Has a kind of Hind feel to me. The Hind also had a rather large 'cargo' area for an attack helicopter (the Soviets tried to use it as a dual purpose craft, kinda like a flying infantry fighting vehicle). This would fit the Gunship's role of being a (...) (23 years ago, 3-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)

The new 2002 line has been sparingly providing capes… :( Unlike the previously years where every set had 2 or more capes each! 7103 is one of the few new sets for ’02 that has a cape! --==Richard==-- (23 years ago, 3-Feb-02, to lugnet.castle, lugnet.starwars)

In regards to the purple light saber, as far as I know the only Jedi to ever use one was Mace Windu, so I am assuming that it is just a blue one although I could be wrong. I would like very much to see a purple light saber. I have plenty of green (...) (23 years ago, 3-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)

What kind of guns does Jango have in the new set? They look like six-shooters (probably just like the ones that came with the Destroyer Droids.) Interesting that Jango has real guns while everyone else is running around with megaphones. :-) -- Grant (...) (23 years ago, 3-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)

I think the lime green is nasty. And I'm having a difficult time accepting all the new curve slopes. Maybe it's just too many new parts at once for me, but I'm largely dissapointed so far. Too many new colors and curve slopes. Overall the set (...) (23 years ago, 2-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)
