For reference
The 'laser cannon' peices (in black) are used in the new soccer light stand,
set 3402.
The 'x-wing engine' appears in the upcoming microcopter for the adverturers
(I'm not entirely sure but that's what it looks like).
The click hinges have already infested town eg,6477 and 6474.
Most probably star wars elements refers to printed peices and recognisable
character shapes (heads, droids etc.) It would be a pity if the peices are
very restricted, star wars has been one of LEGO's best sources for parts (for
castle, space, new colours and just plain bricks) for a long time. Well at
least we've got another seven years after this one. Hmm, up to ten new sets a
year, 70 good sets to come.
