ok this has to do with the set basically, but more so SW itself. I haven't really been following all the EII stuff, I want to go in not knowing all that much. But out of what I have seen something has stuck out at me. Maybe this has been discussed (...) (23 years ago, 6-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Yup, you are correct. When Emperor Palpatine, I mean Senator Palpatine, dissolved the Galactic Senate and made himself emperor(in Episode III) he basically kept a lot of things including the wedgie design of star fighters and capital ships and (...)

(...) Observations on the ship: That green looks like Belville lime green. The canopy is entirely new--it's not the Jack Stone one, it's far too small to be. Woohoo, white med-slope apexes! And that tail--is that a new POOP or some contrivance? (...) (23 years ago, 8-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) It looks like a gable connector to me. I don't know what to make of that POOP behind it. But what's the difference? It's either one rare part or the other, obtainable in unit quantity, useless because the related elements are... unobtainable. (...) (23 years ago, 11-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Yeah, I meant "gable connector." I meant apexes, as a class. But even a gable connector has uses...mecha builders, listening? (...) This doesn't bother me one bit. In fact, when I buy actual sets, I prefer fewer bricks and more (...) (23 years ago, 11-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I'm aware. But, you used to get a dozen of them on one Black-n-Yellow-n-Gray Giant Robot (2152), then it was 2 of them on the AT-ST. And if what you want is a ROOF you're buying onesies and twosies, not an assortment or reasonable (...) (23 years ago, 11-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) True. But then again, where we stand on an issue depends on what we build; I don't build roofs. I agree wholeheartedly that a complete slope system--all the parts available in the old red and black sets, in new colors--is highly desirable and (...) (23 years ago, 11-Dec-01, to lugnet.starwars)
