How much do you think it's gonna cost? I'm guessing it to be around 50-75 big ones. _________________ "Save a tree, boycott toilett paper!" |

Well, I finally got my hands on the new visual dictionary containing a cut-away of the interior of the sarlacc. I was a bit diasappointed. The image was kind of blurry and difficult to interpret. I believe that the artist attempted to remain true to the short story, "A Barve like That," but there are a couple of questions I've got:
1. Wasn't Fett held beneath the main chamber in the book?
2. THe secondary stomach Fett was restrained in was described as a cave/tunnel. In the image, it looks like a "pocket." You think it's a cut-away of a tunnel?
3. The book also said the sky was visible from the main chamber, but that was written before Lucas added the "beak" mouth to the sarlacc...
I really like the rendering, but it could have been done better in my opinion. Anyone have some thoughts? _________________ "Save a tree, boycott toilett paper!" |

Well, I still have to wait a few weeks for mine to arrive, then I'll be able to comment on it. _________________ "He's Gry Sarth, of course he has the stats for them." |

I didn't have enough time to flip through the whole thing but what I did see, I'm guessing that you'll like it a lot! _________________ "Save a tree, boycott toilett paper!" |

Well, I better like it. I'm about to spend some R$ 100,00 on it (about US$ 40,00). _________________ "He's Gry Sarth, of course he has the stats for them." |

I'm assuming you mean forty dollars, as opposed to four thousand. Unless you really are that dedicated...

Sure 40 dollars, why? Should it be written US$ 40.00 ? _________________ "He's Gry Sarth, of course he has the stats for them." |

It's a nationality thing... most romance language based countries use commas instead of decimals (and vice versa) for numerical figures... (if I remember that right) _________________ "Love like you will die tomorrow. Hate like you will live forever." - Unknown |

I think he meant romantic languages. The romantic actually means in that case that it was derived from Latin, as that came from Rome. So basically languages which get their origin from Latin, as opposed to English, which is a Germanic language with some Latin influences. |

Hey, I knew what I meant...
And it's been a long time since I've read the Bounty Hunter series, so I can't remember where Uncle Boba was kept... _________________ "Love like you will die tomorrow. Hate like you will live forever." - Unknown |
