It can be seen taking off from Mos Eisley as Luke's (...) (24 years ago, 7-Jun-00, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | | | Don't fret, we will get Storm Troopers. How though, no one will know. The figure is in the StarWars system logo as is Boba Fett. And we got Boba Fett. And soon we will get the emperor too(which we have all seen). You can pretty much assume that we (...) (24 years ago, 7-Jun-00, to lugnet.starwars)

Compare that with the Speeder Bikes, the AT-ST's, which were right in the thick of the action. These vehicles made a connection to the (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jun-00, to lugnet.starwars)
