  life on mars
 
This is just a thought, but maybe lego released the life on mars stuff early to correspond with that new movie Red Planet. i don't even know if it is out yet and I definetly haven't seen it, but I have seen the adds. maybe Lego thought that kids (...) (24 years ago, 22-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
(...) No, I think it comes down to the weapon sizes. Not many brigs were built, because a brig could not stand against anything larger (with more guns) than itself...therefore, the ships tended to be larger. I think the same ideas were used in Star (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
(...) The ST universe has fighters, they just don't focus on them in the shows. If anyone recalls the Next Gen episode where Wesley (yeah I know, ugh) almost gets kicked out of Starfleet Academy for doing some risky stunt in a fighter/trainer. (...)

  Re: New TIEs
 
(...) Huh? The original Star Drek series in the 60's didn't want to seem derivative of a movie that came out in 1977? Weird. Maybe when fans of Roddenberry say he had a unique vision of the future, they mean it. eric (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
(...) The reason the original Star Trek series didn't have small craft was that they didn't want to seem derivative of Star Wars. 8^) Dave! (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
(...) I built a microfig scale Borg Cube... <G> (4 2x4 black bricks) Actually, another cool ship to build would be the Delta Flyer from Voyager. My biggest problem with Star Trek is there are no small one/two manned fighters. All of the crafts are (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
(...) Actually it's a Danube Runabout from DS9 and it's minifigscale. It's still a big thing though. (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
I'm guessing the Defiant from DS9. It's a capital ship that might still be manageable at minifig scale. More so than the Big E or Voyager anyway. ~Mark "Muffin Head" Sandlin (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  DSDK & AT-ATs (was: Purple speeder?)
 
(...) While I'm rambling off the subject, does anyone out there have a Dark Side Developer's Kit? Can you measure up the AT-AT for me (height, length, width, with a tape measure, not in studs)? Jason. (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.loc.uk)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
(...) I said BIG not enormous LOL Do you really want to know what it is? Greetz, Jay (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  Purple speeder? (was Re: A-wing fighter)
 
(...) That large blue Naboo speeder reminds me of something I saw last year. On The Big Breakfast (UK morning TV show), they showed a load of Episode 1 Star Wars Lego before it was released. One of the sets looked a bit like that large speeder, but (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Inverted 2x2 Gray Corner slopes...
 
(...) YIKES! I don't have to drive that far... It's only about a 30 minute drive through city traffic for me, but doing that every day sucks. I suppose I could call, but you never know what's gonna pick up the phone. 600 miles though, sheesh! I (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Bob Hayes' Z-90
 
Hi Mark, Never posted anything about it - glad that you found it and like it. It was inspired by some early X-Wing drawings in an old "Star Wars Sketch Book" (I think the book is out of print). Yellow was used because it is the only color I have of (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
What, the Enterprise?!? NCC-1701 would have to fill a decent sized room in order to be minifig scale. Egad! ~Mark "Muffin Head" Sandlin (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  Re: Inverted 2x2 Gray Corner slopes...
 
---...--- (...) How Long? I have to drive 300 miles to get to a TRU, thats a 600+ mile round trip for less than $80.00 worth of lego!! Gary (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: New TIEs
 
(...) The star trek thing has een put on hold for a moment but I an tell you that it will be minifig scale and it will be pretty big. Greetz, Jay (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)

  Re: New TIEs
 
(...) That's what I already said (if you think your sentence makes no sense, mine is apparently not much better and quite easily misunderstood). I think I see where you thought I said it was a 4x9 plate, but if you look carefully: (...) ... (...) I (...) (24 years ago, 21-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.build)
 
  2001 Star Wars in Mississauga, ON
 
Found Droid Escape, Droid Carrier and TIE Fighter at Zellers, Sheridan Mall, a couple hrs ago. Looked like I was the first one to put a dent in the shelves. (24 years ago, 20-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Inverted 2x2 Gray Corner slopes...
 
(...) Anybody know what prices we can expect in the U.S.? 44 pcs for $9.99 is asking a bit much for me, TIE seems pricy too. Thanks JOnathan (24 years ago, 20-Nov-00, to lugnet.starwars)
