I'm not sure if this is old news but did anybody else notice that both Han and Chewie are in the Falcon cockpit in the Holiday s@h catalog? They look a little askew in there but it looks to me like LEGO listened to the many comments about the single (...) (24 years ago, 28-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) The hands in the cockpit do indeed look yellow, but I'd bet real money (if I had any) that the fig in the cockpit is a classic smiley, not Palp's scowling face. And he's wearing a hat, not a hood. It's not Palp. (24 years ago, 28-Oct-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.year.2001)

My additional fear is that I wonder if they're planning some Saturday morning cartoon commercial where they show the Stormtrooper blasting poor Threepio to bits.

I think, given the information from the Keiran (sp?) the Lego Direct Producer, the inclusion of the rubber projectile makes sense... when you have both sets, you can make the Stormtrooper shoot C-3PO and fly apart.

(...) The other SW models look like SW ships and things. The Stormtrooper doesn't look like something from the SW universe.

I haven't seen this mentioned, but Jason Railton has done some great alternate models with Star Wars sets-especially three made from the snowspeeder. (URL) work! Yet another testement to the snowspeeder set. -John Van (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Is it just me, or is that AT-ST absolutely dreadful? There's been no attempt to mimic any of the detail, and the parallel-swivel hip set is ridiculous. This is an even worse replica than the Millenium Falcon. The Tie-Fighter and Imperial Shuttle (...) (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars)
