Curious. I’ve not seen this referenced here on LUGNET, in fact can find only one picture of it on BrickLink with a note that the inventory for the set in question (7662-1, Trade Federation MTT) is “pending”. but it certainly looks interesting:

Any thoughts? Anybody had a chance to play with these?

Brian,

I suppose it’s not in lugnet/LDraw/peeron yet simply because it’s probably a new part, just reaching the stores now.

If you look at the instructions for set 7662 (book 2/2, 4515435, page 54), you can also see that part, along with its item number: 4502595 (light bley). I believe the part (design) number is 57585.

I know it’s of little help as long as you can’t order bulk parts from LEGO, but at least you know what you’d ask...

I hope it’ll be in other (cheaper) sets, as producing a new mold for just one set doesn’t quite sound wise (but then again it’s not like it never happened)
