(...) Huh. I thought maybe I was wrong. I wonder why they're packing Qui-Gonn with them, then. He never rode one... The closest he came to one was when Captain Tarpals arrested Jar-Jar at the gates to the underwater city. My guess is either it's (...) (25 years ago, 14-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) My guess is that the list that showed up at theouterrim.com is completely bogus. It just doesn't *sound* like a sensible mix of sets. James (URL) (25 years ago, 14-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Why do you say that? I'm sure that even if it is based in fact, there are some errors. For example, we *know* they are releasing the Millenium Falcon next year, but I think the list of 'figs it comes with is a little ambitious (at best). But (...) (25 years ago, 14-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) some (...) <snip of some very good points> I would agree with everything Eric J. said about the list of sets. We do have hard evidence for the Falcon and the B-Wing along with Boba Fett and vestless Han. If the list is true I would not be (...) (25 years ago, 14-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Because I'm a cynic, and it sounds too good to be true. :) Also, I find the odds of so many Mindstorms kits very slim. There is already a battledroid in the DDK, so another one seems odd. An AT-AT kit for mindstorms is a dream come true, but (...) (25 years ago, 14-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) If we get Stormtroopers, we're going to get blasters. In my opinion, the most exciting playset, minifig wise, would be a Bespin Playset - Stormtroopers, Vader, Han, Chewie, Leia, BobaFet, C3PO, Lando . . . who else? I don't know. . . I think (...) (25 years ago, 14-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)
