(...) part, (...) Decals (...) Though the printing method TLC uses is definitely more rugged than a decal. Printed/Stickered parts are such a tricky thing. If I want to use the graphic the way it is intended, I definitely prefer a printed part. If I (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.starwars)

(...) They (...) They're used as flower pots in Scala. I think that's where they originate from, but they could be a Fabuland piece (I think I see one in the tiny picture of 4178 Mickey's Fishing Adventure - which isn't out yet). Frank p.s. Karim, (...)

  Re: UCS X-Wing Review
 
(...) I was trying to figure out where these came from... I think that they are also used as jars in one of the duplo sets... (hard to tell from the pictures). They are numbered 33008, so they are pretty new, but I wonder if they've been used (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: UCS X-Wing Review
 
(...) They would look even worse than regular stickers. The ideal for me is a permanent graphic system that is optional, and applied by the end user. Decals would be ideal for this. --Karim (24 years ago, 10-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: UCS X-Wing Review
 
(...) What about static-cling stickers? The kind that you find on sunglasses and the like... While they wouldn't stick to well to slopes (because slopes generally aren't smooth) they should stick fine to standard bricks, they'd be 100% removable, (...)

  Re: UCS X-Wing Review
 
(...) When I first saw the on-line pictures of the 2 UCS ships, my first impression was that the X-Wing would be the better of the two because it just seemed to be richer in details. Weekend before last I had a small Lego-fest with an out-of- town (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jul-00, to lugnet.reviews, lugnet.starwars)

  POOR GAZGANO :"-(
 
I saw the starwars bucket at my local TRU ans suddenly noticed: THEY BASICLY MURDERED GAZGANO!!! At first I hoped it was another racer, but they even say it's Gazgano on lego.com!!! Anican & JarJar were spared their lives, but their podracers got (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jul-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  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)
