I believe that the only parts in the clause you speak of that are effected are
those with printing on them that is definitely Star Wars. Like the 2x2 tan
tile that has the Rebel Symbol on it or the 2x2 Round Gray tile with the
Imperial Symbol. Several of the torso's would be involved as well.
The bigger question to me is what theme is this Mars stuff in. My guess is
that its a Town sub-theme because it can't be space under their contract with
Lucas.
