(...) Actually, thats only partly true. Up thru model year 2001, there were several sets which had both TECHNIC and Star Wars on the box front.

(...) Hailfire droid is made with technic parts, but they had to license the rights to make it from George Lucas, so they are required to label it Star Wars. LEGO does not use double labels. Many sets use technic parts, but are not labeled technic. (...) (21 years ago, 28-Dec-03, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.starwars)

Beginning with model year 2002, almost all sets were rebranded with things like "BIONICLE", "RACERS", "STAR WARS", etc. I have been told that there are a few higher-end sets still marked TECHNIC, but I have yet to see one.
