| Well, actually 7159 (the Pod Bucket) also comes with these Battle Droid Elements used for a different function. And nearly everyone will admit that the 'thing' (it's no minifig) I am talking about looks totally crap. A new use of an element is not (...)

| (...) I didn't think I said that. I thought I said that the cartoon violence aimed at JJB was sort of a pleasant thing in fantasy sort of way -- in the way that allows you to pretend that JJB won't return for Episode II. I certainly don't wish to (...) (24 years ago, 5-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| (...) Yeah, I know, in a later reply you'll note that I corrected him for misquoting you (or, at least, misrepresenting what you said). (...) Hmm. Well, I don't know if it's admiration-worthy...
