I just recieved three copies of Tie Fighter (7146) in the mail from lego shop at home. To my great surprise, i found that all of my complaining (though definitely not mine alone) may have influenced a positive decision at TLC. Brown headpieces. (...) (24 years ago, 10-Feb-01, to lugnet.starwars)

Um, Yoda might be one piece or two but definitely moves (Sebulba stank), The ewoks I didn't get a real good look at, but I believe though that Sebulba (and the rock monster) taught Lego that you need some articulation in the figures.

There will be a mini-pack (6.99???) with Luke battling a storm trooper and a scout trooper. There is also a pack with Episode 1 droids with 2 droids and 1 good guy and a pack that recreates the episode 1 scene where Qui-Gon is trying to cut through (...) (23 years ago, 9-Aug-01, to lugnet.starwars)
