The rest of the picts of box covers and backs are up at my web site for the
other E1 sets I got:

7121 Naboo Swamp

Cool stuff: clear 4x4 radar dish, clear Star Wars Cannon pieces.  And Jar
Jar, the brown cape, solid gray light sabre hilts...

I'm waiting for the obvious, oh, about May 4th - someone hooking a fiber optic
driver to 8 clear or trans-orange laser cannons for a KILLER weapon on a
tank/spaceship.


Not cool: 1x2 bricks with vertical clips. :(  The first sign of Star Wars

Can't agree with you there.  There have been several designs I have done that
could have used these to cut down on using up small plates in a wall.


Oooo, I like those 16-wide multi-sloped pieces.  I hope they come out in
other sets & colors.

I hope they come out with them in black and grey - the long slopes look like
they'd match up to 6x8x1 low slopes, and you could make a pretty neat little
roof for gas stations, film drop-offs, or any small standalone building.

Of course, that would require TLG to produce more 6x8x1 slopes ;-)

(...) I thought that was the point: how many pieces one can cram into one model. (...) Even without the low-slopes, these new multi-slope bricks would make good awnings/facades for commercial buildings. Ooo. One must mock-up in LDraw. Steve (25 years ago, 19-Apr-99, to lugnet.starwars)
