My, aren't we cynical? If they don't put at least a holochess table and a
gunner's seat in there, they will have completely botched this set. But then
given what we've seen of the MF so far, I guess I won't be too suprised. I'm
also hoping for a new SW computer, maybe with a TIE in the viewscreen. Maybe
in the A- or B-wing?
