My beefs aren't with scale. I realize that TLG couldn't make this thing big enough, because it would just cost too much. I stand by my comments, however, on the matters of: - color... once again, light blue?!?! why not more dark gray? [Cost to fix (...) (24 years ago, 15-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Hmm... Why would R2D2 have need for an inflatable Leia? If anyone had a reason to have one, that would be R4D5, but he isn't included with the set. Or maybe that isn't the case... Ol' Obi-Wan is probably just doing some of his cross dressing (...) (24 years ago, 15-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Well I have said it before and I guess I have to say it again. The external scale of the life-sized falcon used in the movies is 40 percent smaller than the internal sets that were used. TLC's falcon is a near perfect external scale. Of course this (...) (24 years ago, 14-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Remember, Legos are TOYS, and they are made for KIDS. Don't get me wrong, I wish Lego would target us AFOLs, but they don't, and so we have to take what they give us or create our own models. That is, after all, why we like Legos. I don't have (...) (24 years ago, 14-May-00, to lugnet.starwars)
