With all this talk about the new and upcoming series of nano scale star wars sets, I thought it would be prudent to repost some nano scale fighters I made a while back. Enjoy :) (URL) is moderated) (22 years ago, 10-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.loc.au)

Thanks! Oddly enuf, I did make my own yellow Calrissian in real life the same day I think. I'm also not sure if Lego has made the 1x1 brick w/ studs on 5 sides in red either... Jeff (...) (22 years ago, 10-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) If you zoom in on that teaser you can distinguish that the part snipped at the base of the picture is a leading edge of a long black plate more than ten studs in length as it receeds and is cut. And the background is space, or a really dark (...) (22 years ago, 10-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars)

Thanks! It's the grey imperial torso from 7201 "Final Duel II" set; in MLCad I can mak it any color i want. I got to thinking about this afterward & I figured in real life a plain white torso or a white racing torso: (URL) be the closest that's been (...)

I'd say it's a TIE interceptor, but they don't show up in the Falcon-chase scene. And like you said Stéphane, it looks light gray on the top flap. But I don't think there's an asteroid scene in EPI. And in EPII, it's just the Starfighter and the (...) (22 years ago, 9-Oct-02, to lugnet.starwars)
