Great little Mini build. One of the highlights is that Trans-Neon Green headlight brick.
Two Star Wars sets in a row. Kind of a cute model.

Star Wars Scarab.
I saw a meme leak of the new at-te that had this with some Jar-Jar box art.
Love the classic Star Wars minis so much!
Not sure if my family had this one. I know that we had the MTT and Falcon from the same wave though.
the 2nd version of Gunship Calvery is not that bad of a level honestly, probably one of the better vehicle levels in lego star wars tcs.
I love the OG Star Wars minis. Sure, some of them have been surpassed in various ways since, partially due to all the pieces that have been introduced since then, but you never forget your first love.
His mom loves him!

I wish I’d realized that back in the day. I might have gotten more copies than the one I did.
Dark Red, standing by...the use of six legs.
@MCLegoboy:
Not to mention the TNG tiles...
@Blondie_Wan:
The problem is, you never know if/when parts will be released again. It could stay exclusive to one set (especially if the color or mold is retired), or it could come out in a dozen sets in one year.
The mini sets really hit it out of the park in their very first attempt and this one is no different. The prints certainly help to make it even more detailed!
Still, it's a shame the 2004 wave didn't have sections of a 5th mini model like the 2003 waves did. My Star Destroyer feels very bare because of it. At least the parts from this one aren't almost entirely monochrome!
@Robot99 those were from the medium-sized 2003 wave. This one is from the large-sized 2004 wave. Same subtheme though, so I'll allow it XD
So that A stands for Adorable, right?
At this size, it looks even more like a bug.
This one is great! printed Wedges, neon headlight pieces. Misses the dish, that covers the middle legs tho, which is a bummer.
Ah yes, I remember collecting the mini-kits to build this model in the original LEGO Star Wars game.
I love the miniature sets. This is a cool one. I have one in the original package, one assembled on display and one bagged up in storage. i think I have all of the original sets. I have an unopened store display that holds four of this series. A neat display item.
Wow, for 2004 and at that scale, that is a remarkably awesome build!

Oh, really? Dang, I thought something wasn't adding up in my head. I think I'll need to brush up on my classic Star Wars minis!
This one was part of the third series of mini building sets, and happened to be the first without extra parts for a build that could only be completed if you had all four of the sets. Somehow that was the reason why I don't have any of this series.
@Brickalili: Adorable Toy - Tank Edition.
I’m pretty sure I had this; great pocket money set with a bonkers amount of prints. Wouldn’t happen these days.
I always prefer the green windows on this particular vehicle
Mmmmm, Trans neon green......
