Escape pod. I thinkt TLC felt they had to put in an 'action' feature or
something, since the MF's escape pods are referred to a total of I think once
in all 3 films, and never shown.

Female minifigs are taller than male ones. I think it started back in the
Castle days when women were so rare that men would bring them gifts of good
food and meat to woo them...this better nutrition allowed them to grow taller,
and tall women were also seen as desirable*. This led to a genetic trend that
obviously continues into the future. (Er, except SW is in the past. Heck,
there goes my theory.)
* - Note that most castle women, by virtue of the use of a 2x2x2 slope for a
'dress' are actually taller than the men. Hence my theory.

Well, the TIE-Int is (IIRC) based on the design for Vader's TIE, isn't it? I
predict it won't be long befor esomeone presents us with a UCS "Vader's TIE".
