  Re: Time to write Lego Consumer Affairs a (nasty) letter..
 
(...) but (...) Lego's contract with SW ends in 2007. I'm inclined to agree, I love the SW line but I wish Lego hadn't sold their soul to Hollywood like so many other toy companies. (23 years ago, 10-Mar-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Time to write Lego Consumer Affairs a (nasty) letter..
 
(...) I'd LOVE to see a MIB as a set. I worry that they may not have the tooling for the linear actuator (rack) parts though. (in this set they are the parts that provide the linear motion that opens and closes the large base halves) This URL should (...) (23 years ago, 10-Mar-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Time to write Lego Consumer Affairs a (nasty) letter..
 
(...) Hopefully, the contract should expire in 2003.And if it does, prepare yourself for a Space Legend set. Personally, I want to see either Cosmic Fleet Voyager, 918 Space Transport or a good old Message Intercept Base as Space legends. Or even (...)

  Re: Time to write Lego Consumer Affairs a (nasty) letter..
 
(...) I don't exactly know the answer to that officially...I'm assuming that they got a 9 year (3 film) license considering that they are issuing out models for Star Wars II: Attack of the Clones. That is my best guess. You are right classic space (...) (23 years ago, 9-Mar-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Time to write Lego Consumer Affairs a (nasty) letter..
 
(...) I have to agree with you. Redemption is sweet.:-) Anyway, speaking of liscences- when does Lego's contract about Star Wars expire? I would much rather see classic space and Blacktron than the current new Star Wars sets. John Kruer (23 years ago, 9-Mar-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: New MOC: Rebel Snowspeeder!
 
Thanks a lot Lindsay. I'm waiting to get that soccer set cheap (I don't see paying $20 for only 107 pieces, and only two that I really need). Hopefully they'll be on clearance soon :) The snowspeeder's 176 pieces (mostly smaller plates), so it'd (...) (23 years ago, 9-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: New MOC: Rebel Snowspeeder!
 
(...) Bruce, That's absolutely magnificent. I'm especially impressed with how you achieved such wonderful angles without too many special pieces. Really, if one could get a Snowspeeder like yours for $9.99, I'd buy one, that's for sure! This one (...) (23 years ago, 7-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  New MOC: Rebel Snowspeeder!
 
Hey guys, Here's my latest custom, an Incom T-47 Modified Airspeeder (Snowspeeder). It's the same scale as my A-Wing (1 foot:1 stud) and my upcoming X- and Y-Wings. I'll have the MLCad instructions up hopefully this weekend so check back soon. (URL) (...) (23 years ago, 7-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.announce)

  Re: Sarlacc Pit
 
Joe, So you did spot those droid arms inside! It was kinda tough going through at first in building the pit. But the effort was well worth it after we completed it and the results are what you now see. Those little touches were added afterwards as (...)

  Re: Sarlacc Pit
 
(...) Nice! The Sarlacc is very well-done to the point of creepy (love the use of the droid arms for the internal 'teeth'. And more little touches that make the scene...R2 with the light saber, Luke on the plank. Great stuff! Joe (23 years ago, 6-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Comparison of Imperial Shuttles
 
I'm right behind you on this one, Jimmy. "Seeding" really annoys me, especially when I buy a set 'cause I want more of a particular color and end up with a rainbow. Much better looking model. Dave "Jimmy Park" <madoka@jps.net> wrote in message (...) (23 years ago, 6-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars)

  Re: Sarlacc Pit
 
Mark, Kinda tough to do a sail barge, so we decided instead to improvise and do a bigger skiff of just the right size for the diorama. What you don't see in the pics is the foundation where the Sarlacc has been built. Thanks for your comments and (...) (23 years ago, 6-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
