Providing that the human race does survive into the next millenium, we can
expect another year of great sets from Lego. A manager at Zainy Brainy told me
yesterday that there will be new sets next year from both Classic Star Wars
and Episode One.
Plus, he says that the normal two-year product cycle will not be applied to
the Star Wars themes; they will go through a three year cycle before they are
discontiniued.
I want to know what you'd like to see in the next wave of sets. I personally
would like to see...
AT-ST - complete with a nice cockpit and AT-ST driver. They could also include
1-2 Storm Troopers and a small pileup/barricade.
Bespin Cloud Car - with two drivers and a lot of orange bricks. A lot.
Slave 1 - with poseable wings, Han encased in carbonite, and a very cool Boba
Fett w/jetpack.
Sail Barge - a nice small barge like the one Luke and friends were about to be
cast from. There could be two of these, some cool minifigs, and a sarlac pit
made from tan peices.
I think these are good ideas. What do you think and what are your ideas?

| (...) If they did make this, it would probably also come with Chewbacca(1). Also, I'd say there is a 90% chance of seeing an A-wing. Why? 'Cause they have all the pieces needed already in production. Jeff 1 - He'd probably be a regular minifig. I (...) (25 years ago, 22-Apr-99, to lugnet.starwars)

| I would personally like to see a Star Wars idea book with plans for A-Wing, B- Wing, Ties (Interceptor and bomber) and the MF. and maybe even a parts pack that can make up the missing MF pieces, ie. MF = 7101+7xxx+ etc...+MF Parts Pack (Cockpit, (...) (25 years ago, 24-Apr-99, to lugnet.starwars)
