Has everyone seen the new Slave 1 on the Official Site?

How do you think it compares to 7144?  Personally, I like the colors, but
those windows seem a bit to simplified for my tastes.  The original version
I felt did a better job here in being "pure LEGO"

Hmm, I like it. I think it offers a nice selection of the new slope parts,
which not everyone likes, but I think are nifty.

The new canopy is ok with me. I like all sorts of different canopies for
my various and sundry spacecraft. :^D

I'm probably horribly mixing people up, and forgetting ship names, but
I'm thinking that canopy would work really well on a ship like the Nasal
Avenger using the quarter saucer pieces.

   Yep, you're misremembering there.  You're thinking almost certainly
   of Mark's "Neverwhere," which still holds my personal award for the
   coolest spacecraft I've seen around.  (I'll be expecting an update
   to take account of such a wonderful new piece, kind sir.)  It's the
   Cheese Wheel o' Space!

I'm really glad to see a larger variety of curved pieces, and pieces
which are part of a "system", now that's "real LEGO" for you.

   Hear hear!
