  Re: UCS X-Wing Review
 
I think the whole color issue is pretty difficult to deal with in the case of the UCS X-wing. The mini-fig X-wing is easy enough to accept in light grey, but I think a UCS X-wing in all light grey would not look very authentic. I think TLG should (...)

  Re: UCS X-Wing Review
 
Karim, there are no stickers with the UCS Tie...front "canopy" is pre-printed. Ship detail? Not sure I follow you there, elaborate. (24 years ago, 9-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: UCS X-Wing Review
 
(...) Oh, and another question about the UCS TIE Interceptor... In the hand-out catalog, the ship details are gray (as I think they are on the box). In the S@H catalog, they are Blue! So which one is true to the actual model? ObUCSX-Wing: One thing (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: UCS X-Wing Review
 
(...) That's something I wondered... How come they decided that White was the primary color of the X-wing, when it's really more of an off-white/gray in the movies? White looks a little bit too "clean"... but its not really a gripe, just curious. (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.starwars)
 
  lego.com/starwars updated again
 
There's a new site for the UCS set on www.lego.com/starwars now, but it seems not to be completely open yet. I assumed there will be some pictures and details soon. Bye, Christian --- xTI@N. P.S.: Note that I usually reply slow... ---...--- The (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jul-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: did anyone see?
 
(...) Ooops, should have waited until I looked at all of the pics - those are Snow Speeders, it was hard to see that from the angle of the first picture. Toki (24 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  did anyone see?
 
(URL) is a bunch of good stuff there - Jabba's sail barge, AT-STs, etc. Anyone know what that is above the generator in the Hoth scene? Toki (24 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.starwars)

  Re: UCS X-Wing Review
 
People, I feel I must put my two cents in. First I admit that the UCS X-Wing is a masterpiece, and put my own large scale X-wing to shame...however. Picture this set with a good percentage more light grey pieces (or white), for a more uniform look (...) (24 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.starwars)

  Re: 2001 rumours
 
(...) Trains and Star Wars need to go off in separate directions! Why? Because in Star Wars, everybody is either a hotshot pilot, or employs one. It's like everybody drives a car, and the ones who can't, hang out at spaceports (Mos Eisley) trying to (...) (24 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: photography question
 
(...) I'd like to expand the question some (since I'm working with a digital camera instead of a film camera): What do people use for a backdrop? What kind of material, what color, etc? How do you get the model to stand out and not have the (...) (24 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: UCS TIE Interceptor have an Alternate Model?
 
(...) The TIE Interceptor instructions have several pictures of an alternate model, but no step by step instructions... I haven't seen the X-Wing's booklet so I wouldn't be able to compare the two. Bryan (24 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.starwars)

  Re: UCS X-Wing Review
 
(...) Interesting how we disagree here... this is the one and only major beef I have with this set... The Starwars sets are the only series that LEGO has produced with well-done and fairly theme-generic detailing, and the stickers in this set are no (...)

I'm looking forward to TRU stocking up on these when they see how fast they are moving then getting stuck with a bunch after the first big rush is over then marking them way down then me buying them at like 75% off.

  UCS TIE Interceptor have an Alternate Model?
 
Does the TIE Interceptor come with instructions for an alternate model? I've seen scans of the X-Wing's alternate model so I'm guessing that the TIE does as well. Thanks, Jim (24 years ago, 7-Jul-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Star Wars minifig only sets available?
 
I have not seen them in the stores, but perhaps Shop@home has them. Can anyone advise if there are minifig only sets for sales and where? - Marc (24 years ago, 7-Jul-00, to lugnet.starwars)
