I would have to agree with Ben about the blasters, but the only thing I
can see that the characters that TLG has brought out only used
lightsabers, namely Obi-one (sp?), Darth Vader, and Luke. I can't
remember if the speedbike pilots had blasters or not, I watched Return
of the Jedi a few weeks ago, but I can't recall...
As for Han Solo, and Chewbacca, they aren't in the first set releases,
and I doubt if they ever will be. Can you imagine the cost of the
Millennium Falcon? ($150.00USD-$200.00USD easy!) How would they make
Chewie anyway? Put a brown ghost over a mini-fig? (J/K)

| (...) R2-D2 looks like it is a new and unique "minifig," (mini-droid?), so maybe TLG will make a new and unique minifig of Chewy. That would be cool. As for Han, he's in the Official Logo of Lego Star Wars, right next to the Princess...Bubba Fett (...) (26 years ago, 24-Feb-99, to lugnet.starwars)
