I seriously doubt they'll do a Star Destroyer, or the Mon Calimari Cruiser, or
even a blockade runner, unless they do them as a UCS set. A proper mini-fig
scale Star Destroyer would be quite large, and quite expensive. Basically it
would require a warehouse to store, and about three years to construct. They
could possibly do the bridge of a Star Destroyer as a play set. The Mon
Calimar Cruiser, though slightly smaller than the Star Destroyer, would still
be a rather large undertaking. A mini-fig scale blockade runner would be
about 1/10 the size, but would still take a few hundred thousand pieces...
A minifig size Death Star would probably be larger than the Great Pyramid.
Playsets are entirely possible, but the larger ships cannot be done in minifig
scale... they could be done as UCS sets however (and I hope they do... :)
The Imperial Shuttle is supposed to have Palpatine and two Imperial Guards,
which are the red guys... :) I'm looking forward to seeing how Lego does this
ship.

A small Minifig Blockade Runner would still look awesome if built right. Who cares about scale? A (...) (24 years ago, 19-Sep-00, to lugnet.starwars)
