   (...) Yea, those new curved pieces look really cool. I'm sure we will see them in more colors as time goes on. Perhaps we'll see some in a new round of Life on Mars. (...) Still, it's nice to have the hinge panels in tan in quantity. (...) True, it (...) (23 years ago, 3-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.year.2002)

     In set 7133 at (URL) Any guesses as to what the part behind the 2x2 round engine intake tiles is? It looks like a 2x2 plate with cutouts sandwiched between the tile and a black printed R2 body. Has this piece been seen before? John - AFOL and his (...) (23 years ago, 4-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)

     (...) I think it's 2 or 4 1x1 round plates. If you arrange them that way, that's what they look like--believe it or not! Thanks for the scan address, btw--looks like I'm going to be buying LOTS of 2002 Ep II sets! best LFB (23 years ago, 4-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)

     (...) SPUD is a little better term, but the "Useless" part is quite a value judgment. As I always whip out, the LEGO theme which probably provides the most exposure outside our tiny circle of friends is absolutely dependent on pieces some folks (...)

     (...) The bow and stern parts are much more "SPUD'y" than the mid-sections. They (bows & sterns) *can* be adapted to to other uses, especially for large-scale constructions. But their unique shape makes it much harder. Ditto for the masts - they (...) (23 years ago, 6-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)

      Forgot to mention, if you look really close at this pic: (URL) can see another bow, upside-down at the bottom, that the top portion sort of slots on to.
