 | | Podbucket shot is up at FBTB
|
|
LEGO had asked that I not use the pic until it was released, and etoys.com is now using the exact shot that I have been holding off on. (etoys lists it as out of stock). So I have posted it, and am alerting LEGO that I am doing so. Tim (URL) (25 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I was toying with an Arabian Nights theme....now it looks like my first foray into castle-building will come about in this way. Thanks for all the tan, TLG! (25 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Interestingly, eToys calls it a "POD bucker." I wonder why? :) I like it too--dark grey 4x4x2 cones? Oh my, yes. best Lindsay (25 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) (URL) is the e-toys pic. They are blue not Violet :-( However one can clearly make out more things that make me want many of these anyways. :-) -Lord Insanity (25 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) They look like the rods that connect the tail of the Y-Wing's engines to the rest of the engine. I suspect they didn't use the same mechanism as the Pod Racer set because these pod racers are much smaller, and didn't need the extra support. (...) (25 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) ...The sets also seem more targeted at mass audience. Fewer parts, simpler construction, etc. The foils on anakin's pod for instance. ...you can go back to ignoring me now... wubwub stephen f roberts wamalug guy ((URL) #160 (25 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I'm not sure how excited to get yet...hard to tell how many pieces are in it... looks like maybe as few as 230 pieces? Not a bad deal for $24.95, considering the parts available, but not really a great deal either, considering how cheap other (...) (25 years ago, 7-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Any thoughts on the other minifig (Gasgano?) Over on www.sirstevesguide.com they're thinking that he's been swapped with an articulated sebulba. Anybody else wondering? Cause it's obvious that it's not Gasgano anymore, or if he is, TLC screwed (...) (25 years ago, 9-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) It looks a lot like an articulated Sebulba to me. The way the fig is positioned is fairly evocative of Sebulba's posture (which I think is pretty cool,a race using it's upper limbs as legs and feet, and lower ones as arms and hands). eric (25 years ago, 9-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Folks, we have a winner! Except for the 3 arms, i think that's a shadow or something. I just made one after at the pic, and man, is it ugly. I'll take the one piece over this piece 'o crap any day! Make one for yourself and see. If you think (...) (25 years ago, 10-Apr-00, to lugnet.starwars)
