about releasing another ship in the scale of the star destroyer.."  Anybody
got a clue what it might be?  Death Star?  Ackbar's big ugly ship, whatever
the name is.  I would like to see a playset that size and price range, that
would be worth it.  Lots of figs and stuff.  But has anybody heard rumors of
what it might be?  Toyfare isn't usually known for bogus rumors, that one

The only "famous" capital ship left (after the ISD and the RBR) (assuming
they ignore the VSD) (and ignore smaller ships like the Falcon and the
Nubian) is the Neb-B.

That would make a beautiful Lego model, although the scale would have to
be larger than the ISD to do good greebling, and I'm not sure how a
graceful-looking stand/support would work. . .

I wouldn't be so quick to ignore smaller ships. I, for one, hope they make an ultra-detailed Falcon. Think about it, it is probably they most recognizable Star Wars ship. Tons of people would buy it. And frankly, the system MF was really (...) (21 years ago, 2-Apr-03, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Um, are we forgetting the Super Star Destroyer? You know, Mr. Asthma's flagship? Introduced at the beginning of TESB and crashed into the second Death Star? (21 years ago, 3-May-03, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Episode I? (URL) chromed pieces of course, it will cost twice as much as the ISD. I'm hoping Classic SW and Millenium Falcon. Best regards, /Tobbe (URL) SPAM when e-mailing) (21 years ago, 7-May-03, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Personally, I'd like to see the Trade Federation Battleship (URL) big, round, and all greebly. Somehow I don't think we will see another bad-guy ship though. The Millenium Falcon is most likely. Greg (21 years ago, 8-May-03, to lugnet.starwars)
