looks all twisted, the original was better.

Juniorized is an interesting term for the new Slave I. It looks to me
like it uses at least as many parts as the old one, possibly more. Sure,
it uses some of the new non-brick pieces, but honestly, with it's curved
surfaces, it's a good application for the new curved pieces. I notice
that in addition to the 2x6 curved/sloped/tapered piece, there is a new
3x12 piece which has a low slope instead of a medium slope. Overall, it
looks more detailed to me.

(...) It is. The new Slave I is at the $50 price point, if memory serves; the old one was at the $20 price point. So more detail and more pieces are to be expected. It's a lot bigger, too. :) best LFB (23 years ago, 4-Feb-02, to lugnet.starwars)
