Howdy,

I bought a set today which had one of those one-page catalogs with some of
the 1999 sets including Star Wars (!!!), Rock Raiders, and Space port. I
will be scanning the sets tomorrow morning (I have my scanner set up at the
office) and will upload them to my web page first thing when I get in.

There it showed some of the new themes: Star Wars, Rock Riders, Town Jr.
"City Center", Town SpacePort, the new Ninja Castles, and the new subtheme
of Adventures (with a more Indiana Jones-nesque feel). There is also a new
series of Technic "robots", which don't seem too appealing to me at least,
called "Throw Bots."

Here are the sets shown:

Star Wars (Available March 1, 1999)
7110 Landspeeder (Tatooine's hover vehicle) with two minifigs: Luke
Skywalker and Obi Wan-Kenobi.
7128 Storm Trooper Scout Bikes (2) with 3 minifigs including Luke Skywalker
as a Jedi
7130 A-Wing Fighter
7140 X-Wing Fighter with two Minifigs and R2D2 unit
7150 Darth Vader's TIE fighter & Y-Wing Fighter

Rock Riders (Available July 1, 1999)
