I like the idea, but I think the main problem are the developing costs. TLC
have to design the model first, "ldraw" it and publish it in printable form. I
don´t think many kids will have enough Lego to model a ship in that dimension,
so this instruction booklet will be mostly for AFOLs. The price for this
booklet alone would be more then $50-$100...
How about we design the Falcon, ldraw it, make a partslist and send this to
TLC with the number of "sets" we want to order. Maybe not a S@H but a LUGNET
special ?  ;)

(...) I was thinking they could do maybe a break up of the MF. Say a section or two at a time? Scott S. (27 years ago, 12-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) That makes me wonder, is there an archive of fan created instructions? Jimmy (27 years ago, 12-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I think it would be a fantastic idea if a few of the more talented LDRAWers got together, chose sections and LDRAWed the whole thing -- then published it. F (27 years ago, 13-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars)
