Some more UCS ideas

Granted, this is an old topic, but since my UCS X-Wing arrived yesterday, I've
been thinking a lot about hopeful additions to this marvelous line.  A few brief
ideas (with an eye toward actual possibilities):

A-Wing
I'd say that it would be a mere 700 pieces.  A definite possibility.

Speeder Bike Model
450 pieces?  The Speeder Bike has good recognition with Joe-Consumer-Who-is-
Mildly-Familiar-with-SW

Landspeeder
800 pieces?  Good recognition, and the more that I think about it, the more it
seems like a reasonable set.

B-Wing
1,200 pieces?  This might be a future year's really large set.

Ok, I can't resist a little bit of whimsy:

I'd like to see the Y-Wing (1,800 pieces), but I don't think that it will
happen.  It's too big, and it doesn't have enough recognition with Joe-Consumer.

Anyway, judging from the quality of the X-Wing, any new UCS sets will be great.

James
