| I have been seriously thinking about this; how many more classic vehicles can be made? Looking at the rebel vehicles, it appears that they have all been done. The only remaining vehicles are too big to make a mini-fig size vehicle, and not charge (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| (...) That is an intersting question. Perhaps we will see Jabba's sail barge? That would be pretty big, but not so big it couldn't be made. A Sandcrawler might be made as well. As was suggested, some playsets may also be made. Perhaps the base on (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| (...) Unlike other line-ups, LEGO will not discontinue SW sets after two years. In fact, don't be surprised if 7141 X-Wing or another set is still in the line-up until the contract is up. However, who says it only has to be vehicles? (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| I think we'll also see: Lars Family speeder Cloud City Car Jawa Sandcrawler Swoop Bike (tried to do one of these myself but it didn't come out right) plus TLG would be smart to release a Z95 Headhunter... basically the same pieces as the X-Wing (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Scans/.jpgs of this already exist, as catalogues have begun to appear and the relevant toy shows have been held. Who knows when it'll (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| It appears that Lego is spreading it all out as much as possible so that they will have new material by the time the next movie opens. They will continue to release a few Ep. 1,4,5,6 this year and next year. Then, in 2002, the secret sets will start (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.starwars)

I expect we'll see the TIE fighter soon, with a System AT-AT along with it, or soon thereafter, since the TIE pilot and AT-AT pilots wear nearly identical helmets, with the TIEs' being black and the AT-ATs' being in white.

| I really like the idea of a cloud car and a sandcrawler, however; what color would the cloud car be? Is Lego orange accurate enough, it looks too bright to me.

| | | | | Re: What can we expect?

| Knowing Lego, the Cloud Car will probably be a combination of red and orange parts. I'd rather it be red than orange, though, because the lego orange is kinda bright. But even if they make 'em orange, they'd still be cool. -John (...) chrome (...) (25 years ago, 8-Mar-00, to lugnet.starwars)
