I wouldn't be too worried. I assume by the prices and past sets that they

General reply to the topic:

Frankly I'm relieved to find some new System sets coming down the pike for

other promo literature, I think).

It's interesting (and expected, I think) that Lego is moving towards less
and less telegraphing of upcoming product-- lots of summer stuff coming that
is not in the first 2002 catalog, not even as a hint.

(...) Ah, confirmed. I just noticed the 'next' button at the bottom of the page, and the Technic Artoo and Vader are listed as 'creator' for some bizarre reason... -jeremiah- (23 years ago, 12-Dec-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.year.2002, lugnet.starwars)
