Is it just me, or does The Lego Company seem to be putting an awful lot of

it seems like a bit of a reach.  Or maybe I'm just feeling curmudgeonly...

Nah, not really.  At least, I don't think they're reaching.  I had
expected the Falcon's quad-lasers to be made from the ion cannon piece;
I was really surprised when I saw that they aren't...

I don't think they have overdone the few new elements. I would much rather see
them (over) use a few specific pieces rather than create a whole lot of pre-
fab specialized pieces.
