| (...) I'll bet one or more of: - New mold costs. New mold shows up in only 1 set? Only one set shares the overhead. - Difficult-to-manufacture costs. Minifigs come pre-assembled and are 9+ actual pieces, some of the parts are larger, etc. - Lucas (...) (22 years ago, 4-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars)

| That's a pretty cool speeder. The rudder and control panels are nice. Funny description, too. I like the idea for the project. I made a landspeeder a while ago. You can use it for your page if you want. It's at: (URL) design is really similar to the (...) (22 years ago, 3-Oct-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars)

In my opinion Jabba is the wrong colour, he looks like that green blob ghost from Ghostbusters, and the Gamorean guard could do with a touch of paint to breakup the green. (...)

The name of the set layout is far different from current sets too. And the big palace set seems to be packaged in a (...) (22 years ago, 3-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars)
