 | | Destroyer Droid - Help w/ unrolling —Zak Arntson
|
| | | I just found a Destroyer Droid at Target (Lynnwood, WA, USA) for anyone interested. They had a few Slave I's and Pit Droids too. It's strange, I'd think Boba Fett would sell the fastest, but the ones I haven't found are the A & B Wing and Desert (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Sometimes the head wouldn't flip up either but now it does, too (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | | (...) I posted a fix earlier. If the grey pin pops out even a little, the head will have trouble. The grey pin passes through a technic element that is always attached to the head. Wrap a small rubber band around this part. Now, there is also a (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | | I'm having trouble with the rear leg mechanism too. I reduced the number of elastics to 3. This seemd to make the latching and unlatching operations easier when tripping it manually (i.e. by hand, not rolling it). With 4 bands I could trip the rear (...)

| | | | | | Boy oh boy, I had troubles with this as well. The head/rubberband fix had helped with the head. For the back leg, I couldn't get it to snap open no matter how hard the front legs struck. When I reduced rubberbands it would open but not have enough (...) (25 years ago, 25-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | | Correct me if I am wrong. Alot of the areas where people are having problems with the legs unfolding, are held together with the L shaped flat technic pieces. I found the flash on mine to be sticking out too far to allow a pair of these to sit flush (...) (25 years ago, 26-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | Help for hard to find sets —Andrew Burt
|
| | | | I'm a new AFOL to lugnet. I've been noticing the high prices that some people are paying on auctions for brand new Star Wars sets. Are there a lot of areas where the sets are in short supply? The local Wal-Mart & Zellers stores have a lot of Lego. (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars)

I don't think you are going to find any of those people here on LUGNET though. For the most part we (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.market.theory)

If all of the folks who frequent this newsgroup and sold stuff on eBay did the same it would cut into the (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.market.theory)

| | | | (...) Time and time again I place FS postings on both LUGNet and RTL and get zero responses. I'll then put the same item on EBAY, only to have a LUGNet/RTL regular buy +20% over my FS price. MAD! In the UK we have a phase : "You can take a horse to (...) (25 years ago, 17-Jan-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.market.theory)

Another part may be people who figure that anything that's posted in FS is gone by the time they get there (this is a bad assumption to make, about the first deal I participated (...)
