  Summer 2001...
 
I didn't see any sets slated for a summer release, except for that Bionicle stuff...and what's up with that stuff, anyway? Are we to assume that the 'Action Team' is this year's 'anticipated' line-up? Not to say that I wouldn't buy them, they're (...) (26 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.year.2001)
 
  What is with the Technic C-3PO?
 
The first thing that came to mind: (URL) it'll be a warm day on Hoth that I buy one. --DaveL (26 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.off-topic.fun)
 
  New Parts,New Building Styles?
 
Hi, Just a few observations about this years line 1)There seems to be a new part on the mecha 7313 from the mars line.I'm talking about the grey piece on the waist with the blue rotor.Also is that a white x-wing engine on the right side of 7310?

  4th Imperial shuttle figure....
 
Look closely at the cockpit - (URL) - there is a darkish figure with a yellow smiley and what looks like a red hand. Nice to have a fourth figure for our $30! Maybe there is hope for an AT-ST pilot or two. Other $10 sets so far (Naboo Swamp and (...) (26 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.general, lugnet.starwars, lugnet.year.2001)
 
  Re: Alpha Team Equipment
 
When I started working on the computer game over a year ago, there was no "Alpha Team" to speak of, in fact, the game was called something different entirely, and the characters in the game were VERY different. The idea at the time was that the (...) (26 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.year.2001)

(...) TV" (...) <blink blink> Are you serious, or is this some kind of esoteric joke? If you *are* serious, I have a question for you: Does this imply that a certain amount of the Alhpa Team line was driven by the computer game? If so, how much? (...)

  Re: Alpha Team Equipment
 
As a designer on the "Alpha Team" project, I'm responsible for the "walking TV" set -- the basic idea is that it's supposed to be the way you ask for help (as opposed to a "help button"). I was sitting in my office one day working on the game and (...) (26 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.year.2001)
 
  Re: What is with the Technic Stormtrooper?
 
(...) It's not that -- it's that it doesn't look like a Stormtrooper. --Todd (26 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.technic, lugnet.year.2001)

  Re: Alpha Team Equipment
 
Yeah, I saw that walking computer thing and thought it was odd too. But did you see that sinister looking guy on the top right of that same pic? My guess that it's probably the main 'bad guy' assuming that Alpha team are 'good guys' ~Adam (...) (26 years ago, 25-Oct-00, to lugnet.year.2001)
