Boxes in this era were a double-edged sword. I don't have any of the packaging for this set anymore, but I can extrapolate from other sets in the line that the box was rectangular and included a slide-out cardboard tray.
Also includes two battle droids.ħ141: Instructions Scan by montgomery.cloud, on Flickr Open the cockpit door and help Anakin into the pilot seat. But did the model follow through? Was it wizard? Or did it suffer the same fate as the film it was based off of?īattle nearly impossible odds in a Naboo fighter! (*Is the slogan "It's so wizard" an early reference to Episode I ? Or was that just a random coincidence?) As the catalog suggests, it was " so wizard, Ani." *
The Naboo Starfighter was the first in the new line of LEGO sets based on the film to be revealed, teased in a little catalog included with the early 1999 releases. So anyways, put yourself back into the shoes of your younger naiveself, before before the deepest core of your being was challenged by The Phantom Menace. I apologize, that reference was a bit of a stretch. And in the immortal words of little Ani, "it working!" So on May 3, 1999, the entire population of the Earth was subjected to a marketing campaign unlike anything ever seen before (or since). A new Star Wars movie? Can you believe it?! The trailer had everything you could ever dream of: heated space battles, a demon with a double-bladed lightsaber, a young Obi-Wan Kenobi, a little kid, a cartoon rabbit. it's 1999: the release date of Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace is dawning. In honor of the impending marketing bonanza that The Force Awakens will inevitably inflict upon the world, I'd like to take a trip back in time.
