I to would love to see lando make it into lego.  I just think something would
be missing if he didn't.
About lego not doing civil war sets, I would not rule it out.  Remember
Playmobil is a european company and they do american civil war figures.  Lego
is a very different company from Playmobil in some cases, but I think that
them being in europe is not the deturing factor.  If anything keeps them from
doing a civil war theme I think that it will be the fact that they don't want
to be a war toy.
Back to the lando thing, I don't know what lego will do about this issue, but
I agree with you that star wars will force this issue on lego.  Kind of funny
tho.  Lego can build entire cities and themes but they are torn on what to do
about a minifig.

The whole cowboys and indians (or Native (...) (25 years ago, 21-Mar-00, to lugnet.western, lugnet.starwars)
