I just hope that whatever they do make, they make well. I was kind of
disappointed by the Jar Jar minifig (the head being undecorated) but I
*love* Jar Jar's torso -- it's so perfect for Castle peasants. Same with so
many of the other new torsos! I could certainly pass on some of the more
obscure aliens from the Mos Eisley Cantina (or Jabba's palace), but it'd be
fun to have a few of the Ep4 cantina band members. Love those heads. :)

Hoo----no. Bite you tongue! :)
Me, I hope TLG makes it to 200 SW sets by the end of the N-year license.
And I think TLG is gonna have trouble fitting it all into the 71xx range!

What kinds of things would you like to see in Technic? (not disagreeing,
just curious)
