Interesting to see such a detailed closeup. The photographer was obviously very careful - chrome surfaces like that are great places to go looking for pictures of the photographer, and he(she) is nowhere to be found. JB (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jun-02, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) IMO, such a picture is useless - it doesn't fit on my screen (1600x1200 - the image is close to double that!). Especially since the guide picture popup doesn't enable scrollbars. Maybe we should change that? On Windows (which I'm forced to use (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jun-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.db.scans)

I just got permission to use some pictures of 10026. It includes a very high res pic that may not tell you much more of anything, but for a limited time, it'll be the pic in the LUGNET Set Database: (URL) I'll swap in a normal-res version, because (...)

This model is very nice, I can't justify it's price just due to the chrome. The Vintage Aircraft two for 10% off deal seems a better purchase at this time. I couldn't really justify the price of the Blockade Runner either, so I suppose this isn't (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jun-02, to lugnet.starwars)

I would pay double the old price for 3033's also. But it seems to me that the value associated with that purhcase is far greater than that of the 10026. If TLC released a tub of all chrome technic parts, that is a different story all together. :) (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jun-02, to lugnet.starwars)

Heck, I'd pay double the old price for 3033s even without any chrome plated parts. But just imagine a chrome plated tub full of juicy new chrome plated technic parts ... drool ... let me get my cheque book JB - happy lab rat (Sorry to be a bit off (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jun-02, to lugnet.starwars)

I have to agree with you here Tim. Since the parts used in the stand are also used in lots of other sets, that certainly wouldn't justify doubling the price. Also, the rare chrome parts doesn't add that much value to the set unless you are (...) (22 years ago, 20-Jun-02, to lugnet.starwars)
