| | | Is it just my imagination or has Lego done a better job developing their potter line than their star wars line? I just seems the pieces are cooler. What got me thinking was the difference between Chewbacca and that big brown dude with the huge black (...) (23 years ago, 23-Nov-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | (...) On FBTB they said a few months ago that the ewoks are shorter then other figs In one of the pics of the new HP sets it shows some shorter people. So I think that the ewoks are shorter. But who knows --Kevin W. § (23 years ago, 23-Nov-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | | (...) I know. Yes the Ewoks and the goblins from Gringott's bank are described as mini-minifigs. And Hagrid (the big brown guy) is significantly larger than a human or Chewbacca. Chewie was a head or two taller than Han right? Hagid is 9 1/2 or 10 (...) (23 years ago, 23-Nov-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | | Wow. I didn't realize the ewoks were smaller. They look the same size as the rest of em. Veddy cool. I'm not into the potter stuff but of course I had to get em all. Fluffy is quite nifty. Its frustrating to see info about sets float around but not (...) (23 years ago, 23-Nov-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | (...) My impression was exactly the opposite. SW line (ESPECIALLY the 1999 sets) were amazingly done. There was little if any juniorization, and the sets were *much* more accurate than I would have expected. Granted it's since gone downhill a (...) (23 years ago, 23-Nov-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | | | I guess my only real beef was the Falcon. In my opinion it was absolutely horrible. The minifigs were great though. I theorized that since Potter can be considered an extension of Lego's castle themes maybe they had better in house production on it. (...) (23 years ago, 23-Nov-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | | I think comparing the Star Wars LEGO Sets with the Harry Potter sets isn't really fair. The Star Wars sets have essentially all been vehicle sets, whereas with Potter, aside from the train, they are all playsets. Designing a LEGO playset and a LEGO (...)

| | | | | | (...) Well, you're right-- they're very different themes. And granted it's easy to come up with set ideas for SW. I mean, SW already has a HUGE bonus insofar as its spaceship designs were cool and semi-"realistic", unlike many of the space sets (...) (23 years ago, 28-Nov-01, to lugnet.starwars)
