 | | forest setting, and beast face off

I have posted some pictures of a small forest setting I built to house some of the more exotic creatures in Legoland, (wookie, ewok, owl, raven, parot, rat, cat, spider, etc...) and included a few pictures of a face off between some of those (...) (23 years ago, 4-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) It is. The new Slave I is at the $50 price point, if memory serves; the old one was at the $20 price point. So more detail and more pieces are to be expected. It's a lot bigger, too. :) best LFB (23 years ago, 4-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I think it's 2 or 4 1x1 round plates. If you arrange them that way, that's what they look like--believe it or not! Thanks for the scan address, btw--looks like I'm going to be buying LOTS of 2002 Ep II sets! best LFB (23 years ago, 4-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)

In set 7133 at (URL) Any guesses as to what the part behind the 2x2 round engine intake tiles is? It looks like a 2x2 plate with cutouts sandwiched between the tile and a black printed R2 body. Has this piece been seen before? John - AFOL and his (...) (23 years ago, 4-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)

Actually, Mace Windu's lightsaber is dark blue, not purple. Ki-Adi-Mundi (the cone head) does have a purple lightsaber, and Adi Gallia has a maroon one. Episode 1 didn't show any of the Jedi Council members using their lightsabers, so this (...) (23 years ago, 4-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I thought so at first. On 2nd look, its a pair of printed white 2x6x2 canopies. Note the 2x2x2 "dress" slopes beside it. The clue for me to look closer was the fact that the printing was interrupted. (...) Printed white 6x8 extreme low slopes (...) (23 years ago, 4-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Judging from the picture of the minifig (Anakin?) on the left, I'd vote for blue. I notice that the hair may be dark red which will be cool. We need more than just brown, black, grey, and tan for the standard male hair. Frank (23 years ago, 3-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) 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)

(...) Yea, those new curved pieces look really cool. I'm sure we will see them in more colors as time goes on. Perhaps we'll see some in a new round of Life on Mars. (...) 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.)
