I've been staring at the pictures of the new Star Wars sets for over an hour
and I keep shaking my head. They don't look all that bad but the A-wing. I
like the shape of it but I was hoping for some new tan and brown pieces from
lego. Oh well, I'll jsut have to figure out how to spray paing some legos
now. I am fairly impressed on slave 1. I was first told lego was not going
to put that model out into production. I keep looking at and I like how they
designed the cockpit. It was very creative plus more green bricks!!! The b-
wing.... I want three of those! I really like that model and it'll go great
with ROTJ scene over the Death Star. I am excited about the new sets for this
year. But I just to know who designed the skiff, it sucks! I like brown
pieces so I know I will pick up a few of those sets but it looks terrible. Oh
well, can't win them all.

| Hmmm... I still like the A-Wing. I really like Slave I, despite what other people have been saying! And I must admit, the skiff is pretty bad. (...) -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=...=-=-=-=-=- jmbrown@mines.edu (URL) (25 years ago, 22-Oct-99, to lugnet.starwars)
