It wouldn't make sense to me. The royal guards aren't going to fly the ship. They just stand around and look intimidating.

Hi... My first instinct when I see new sets is to call LS@H to see if they're available. They're listed in their system, but obviously not coming out until 1/1/2001 (although I'm sure Wal-Mart will have 'em all earlier than that). The call did give (...)
