(...) Kaadu (or is it Kaadus?) (...) I really hope it isn't 'any new element introduced in a SW set'...the 2x4 extremely low slopes were originally SW, no? Here's hoping the Jedi hoods aren't included either, or the tan and grey hairpieces...or the (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.starwars)

I'd say the cockpit pieces, plus the laser cannons could be used in other lego themes (the cockpits would probably have to have a different paint job, though.) I think pieces like Boba's hlmet/backpack, Jar Jar's head and the Eopies from the Gungan (...) (25 years ago, 22-Mar-00, to lugnet.starwars)
