Please see below.
(dissappointed news for us?)
(1)LEGO-company's official products
- X-wing ,Y-wing ,Vador's TIE ,Speederbike ,Land speeder ,Snow speeder
(2)designed & built by Mr.Fujita(one of the most famous Japanese LEGO fan)
- Millenium falcon
- Star destoroyer
- Imperial shuttle
(3)designed & built by LEGO-Japan-company's modeler
(these are only for the sales promotion but NOT for pre-production)
- AT-AT ,AT-ST ,normal TIE
- customized Minifigs(3PO ,Jawas ,Chewie ,Stormtroopers)
..I don't know relations to this year's new minifigs(in the falcon).
But I heard LEGO-Japan-company had no R&D section, I seem these
minifigs are hand-made by him for only exhibition.
- diorama base ,buildings & other accessories
(4)not clear for me
- real scale models(Vador ,R2 ,Yoda)
...from Billund or U.S ??
