The only exception is the ARC-170's, the only decent sized fighter in the whole PT
You people seem to forget the two-time triple-gun goodness of the Belbullab-22 (Grievous´ fighter). It´s like a N-1 but dark and less shiny. 8)

I liked the Naboo ships. They were shiny 8)

Two or so at the very beginning of the Naboo celebration scene, upper right corner. Blink and you´ll miss them. :)

Meh, so far the Naboo yatch's are about 50/50 with me. The original SR-71 wannabe sucked but I like both the ships in AotC's. Especially the Buck Rogers rocket one at the end. The one in RotS is ridiculous, how the hell do they get from the main body up to the cockpit?

But as far as board culture in general, I do think that young male overaggression is a contributing factor to the general atmosphere of hostility. It's not SOS and the Mess throwing hand grenades all over the forum- Red

The RotS one? Blah. The flying wing at the start of AotC's was way better.

I've only seen TPM a couple of times, and have yet to see AOTC or ROTS, so my choices are kinda limited... I do have to say that I loved the bright yellow and silver N-1 Naboo starfighter from TPM, though. Very unique as SW designs go.

If I may mention to all the people who complain about Amidala's ship change between Episode II and III. At the beginning of AoTC her ship was blown to smithereens, so I don't see the problem in her getting a different ship.

Didn't stop her from using the Yacht at the end, though.

I like Grievous's fighter thing... the one that looks like a cast-iron Russian fighter with two Spitfire hulls bolted onto the wings. That thing could almost belong to Don Carnage and his airpirates.

The space-Hind (SPLAAT?) is also cool.

Almost all of the cap ships in ROTS were awesome. I really hope they make a model line of them!

I would have to agree. Even the Lucrehulk gets points for originality.

Moff Panaka. Yes, the Captain from TPM became a Moff after the Empire was declared and was a big admirer of Palpatine. (ITW: OT)

Or 'Moff Panaka' might be a different person to 'Captain Panaka'.
