This is great news! So far it was looking like it was going to a sad year for Technic (OK, so call me a Bionicle Burner -just hate those sets) but this has helped me revive my spirits for 2K2. Would be kind of nice to see Lego get together w/ (...) (23 years ago, 31-Jan-02, to lugnet.technic, lugnet.year.2002)

(...) Hey Shaun, thanks for posting this... wow, I wasn't expecting them to put that much more effort into the Ep2 Slave 1!
