Yeah, having 4 mindstorms kits and two technic sets sounds a bit much! (not
that I'd complain if it's true!) Maybe it's just 1 or 2 more mindstorms kits
that have multiple models? That'd be kinda like the one that features R2D2 and
the battle droid on STAP. (I forget if that's the developers or discovery kit)
Given that they've only come out with 3 mindstorms-type sets to date (at least
that's all I know of, not counting the mindstorms expansions), it seems kind of
odd that they'd release 4 *Star*Wars* Mindstorms sets all in 1 year... not to
mention the potential *other* genres they might want to follow...
Anyway, it'd make more sense to me if some of those Mindstorms sets were really
just 1 larger set... Or as another possiblility, they could be mindstorms
expansion sets, too. That also sounds a lot more plausible...

Yeah, I once made a list of all the Star Wars sets I could think of that TLG
could plausibly make... came out to around 40 sets, but about half of 'em were
playsets rather than vehicles... And a Carbonite Freezing Chamber is big on my
list of playsets... would be quite cool!
