  Re: 4th Imperial shuttle figure....
 
(...) I'm assuming this figure looks like the naboo security guard from set #7124, only with different colors. Maybe black and red? Cool! (...) At most 1 but IMHO there isn't going to be any. The cockpit is only 4 studs wide and looks like is may be (...) (26 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.year.2001)

  Re: 4th Imperial shuttle figure....
 
(...) Because the figure in the cockpit has a regular smiley, not the Emperor's head... it's visible enough to at least make that out. However, it's possible that the fig was simply in there when the shot was taken and they just figured that the (...) (26 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: Life on Mars
 
(...) I believe you are correct. Look at this picture: (URL) has little pictures of aliens shooting through the tubes. And there's a picture of a mechanism that looks like it switches the tubes so that only one can be operational at a time. Pretty (...) (26 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.space, lugnet.year.2001)
 
  Re: What is with the Technic Stormtrooper?
 
(...) Did someone just turn up the "fun" knob? Imagine somewhere is a set designer, and a mischievous intern informs him of all the ways his model has been mocked... (26 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.technic, lugnet.year.2001)

heh heh... Who'll be the first to build Yoda out of the Statue of Liberty? Mindstorms Yoda: if there's a Droid Developer Kit and a Dark Side Developer Kit, what will they call this one? (26 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.technic, lugnet.year.2001)

this stuff looks to me like some more japanimation stuff... the names sound japanese, the story is japanese-like, this is lego's version of Power Rangers ? Raph (26 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.year.2001)

  Re: What is with the Technic Stormtrooper?
 
(...) Maybe they'll do a LEGO MindStorms motorized talking Yoda head! "Mmmmm, hep hep, hep hep. Luminous beings are we. Do, or do not. There is no try. Away put your weapon--I mean you no harm! Always buy more LEGO you must!" Master Yoda, you look (...) (26 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.technic, lugnet.year.2001)

  About these new LEGO Racers
 
What are your thoughts on the new LEGO Racers? (URL) many pieces do you think those cars are made of? And I thought Town Jr. 1-piece wheelsets were bad!!!! (26 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.year.2001)
 
  Re: 4th Imperial shuttle figure....
 
(...) Of course, last year they couldn't even decide how to spell Boba Fett. Don't forget the "Includes Bobafet!" from this catalog (URL) (26 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.starwars)
 
  Re: What is with the Technic Stormtrooper?
 
(...) I couldn't agree more!!! (...) Does Lucasfilm Licensing listen to complaints from fans? Maybe if enough people write and complain, they'll crack down on LEGO for making crap like this and it won't happen in 2002. (Well, I can dream, can't I?) (...)

  2001 catalog
 
I saw that in the new 2001 catalog that the racers themes' numbers start with 45. I thought that those numbers were reserved for the 9V train theme. What are they doing with that idea? That is just six less 9V train models. (26 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.year.2001)

  Re: 4th Imperial shuttle figure....
 
(...) Yep, you're right about the cockpit fig not wearing a hood. In fact, if you look closely you can see that it is a classic smiley face (Palpatine's eyes are larger and his mouth is straight). Ken (26 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.starwars)
