 | | Idea: Sleeves
|
|
Take a look at the LEGO Star Wars Episode I logo. More specifically, Qui-Gon Jin's (sp?) arm. He has sleeves (or maybe I should say "baggy" sleeves). When I first saw this I thought, wow, it sure would be cool if LEGO would make arms with sleeves. (...) (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.dear-lego, lugnet.castle, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.general) !

| | SW Lego Commercial -- MTT and AAT shown
|
|
Hey gang, Last night on Cartoon Network I saw an ad for Star Wars Lego, featuring the upcoming 7184 MTT and 7155 AAT. The MTT was shown "folding apart" in a very unusual way and made me wish I had taped the commercial. At any rate, I was glad to see (...) (25 years ago, 6-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)

I know this is not directly related to Lego, but since the video came out I have been seriously pondering who is to be the next Anakin. It looks like Leo is out of the running (I never thought he was as bad a choice as most others). However after (...) (25 years ago, 5-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Adam, I am not certain with which part of my statement you are disagreeing. I said two things. 1. Minifigs are not action figures and since they are catagorized as construction toys LEGO can sell them however they wish, in sets or as a set of (...) (25 years ago, 4-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)

I would have to totally disagree with Christopher on this one! Hasbro's Action Figures are completely different then Lego's mini figures. The lego are somewhat comical, whereas, the Kenner line is meant to be more articulate, deatiled, and accurate (...) (25 years ago, 4-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)
