I am looking for a Star Wars site that is in the UK. I know like every Wednesday they would display a new model. Also the use bravenet services for password protection. I think one of the website creaters is named Dorian...? If anyone has any (...) (24 years ago, 7-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) One very simple thing I did was to beef up the landing gear. I used some spare parts, and doubled up the fake-hydraulic 2x2x2 round landing pad (URL), so there were two of these parts on each 'foot'. Still not functional, and kinda clunky, but (...)

In lugnet.starwars, Jeromy Irvine writes: <SNIP> (...) R2D2 and C3PO are both very common style droids... C3PO may have been built by Anakin, but once he gets his coverings on he looks like any other protocol droid. R2 is just an astromech unit. (...) (24 years ago, 6-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) "Ewoks have survival skills"? You're talking about a race that has wood-and-leather hang gliders, which they use in dense forest, against high-tech weapons. Sounds fairly insane to me. Almost as insane as the fact that they won. Bleh. Steve (24 years ago, 6-Nov-00, to lugnet.off-topic.debate, lugnet.starwars)
