  Episode II Trailer on FOX
 
If the movie is half as good as the trailer made it look, it will be the best Star Wars movie yet. -Mike Petrucelli (23 years ago, 11-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Ep II AOTC Trailer ....
 
Just saw the 2.5 minute Episode II trailer ... looks like there's another walker to be made in the not-too-distant future ;) 4 legs, boxy body ... an ancestor of the AT-AT, no doubt. A cool body-mounted main cannon, as well. How very exciting! -s (23 years ago, 11-Mar-02, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Time to write Lego Consumer Affairs a (nasty) letter..
 
(...) Yes that was the Company hogwash he recited. I work in a toy store. Life on Mars sets come in boxes printed; LEGO(the logo) SPACE. So the company's official position is that space sets at retail are ok but Lego Direct isn't allowed to release (...) (23 years ago, 11-Mar-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)

(...) I no way is anybody slighted by your postin’ placement! ~In fact I for one am elated at the news. If not for your message I would have likely *missed the trailer entirely. ¤Sincerely, --==RïçhårÐ==-- *cause after ‘Malcolm’ I'm usually affixed (...)

  Re: Time to write Lego Consumer Affairs a (nasty) letter..
 
(...) The contract was to have the rights to produce Star Wars sets. Brad Justus, senior VP of LEGO Direct, said at BricksWest in no uncertain terms that there is no contractual reason not to produce any Classic Space Legends sets. However, there (...)

Hi all, Fox will air a 2 1/2 minute trailer for Attack of the Clones tonight between Malcolm in the Middle and X-Files. Details at: (URL) C. (who will not be insulted if you tell me I posted to the wrong group(s)-- just set appropriate FUT) (23 years ago, 10-Mar-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Time to write Lego Consumer Affairs a (nasty) letter..
 
(...) Yeah. Those are a few sets I've always wanted, but never got a chance to acquire. Hopefully, LEGO should release a Space Legend in the near future, if they EVER do. :) If Lego couldn't make the tooling, do you think it would be be possible for (...)

  Re: New MOC: Rebel Snowspeeder!
 
(...) Hi Bruce, Wow - This is truly a fantastic design! Dave Eaton and I have been playing around with trying to get a true minifig-scale snowspeeder for a couple of months now, but this design is where the search ends! I put one together yesterday (...)

  Re: Time to write Lego Consumer Affairs a (nasty) letter..
 
This is one of the most interesting debates I have read for a while, and I feel the need to put a couple of points forward. Regarding the topic of big parts vs. bricks, I agree that there are a lot of sets out there that look like they could be (...) (23 years ago, 10-Mar-02, to lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)

  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)

Bruce, Sorry about the problems you've gotten accessing my site. Not sure why since you're the first one to mention about it.
