Cheesy Studios : I love your Logo, very original. Also, your review is one of the more balanced spot on reviews I've seen online. Love your calm demeanor and your knowledgeable, review to the era. I sold my entire 70’s 80’s 90’s 2000s collection back in 2021. Kept a few sets - The Blacktron Invader was a set I sold. New with Box and instructions. Although the GWP Cruiser is a direct update re- imagined, what strikes me about this reboot is that the pieces back in 1987 were so much cooler and stronger. 4 specific examples : 1) The Robot had a cooler body piece used at the time. 2) The middle cargo piece was a solid piece and was printed. 3) The clear red transparent panels in the back were nicer. 4) finally the black connector pieces were stronger and less flimsy then the clasps used in this update. (Technic) The motion arrows, were on the original showing where you could attach and take apart the pieces of the ship. At the time for Lego that was such a exit from their normal pallet of colors that they always went with. They rarely, if ever produced in black, accept for City Police - so it was a great variation to what they produced from the preceding 30 years........ You can view my collection being sold on Atlanta Brick 🧱 Company - 5-31-2021 OG Classic Star Wars Lego Hauuuuuul. There you will see the mint condition of half of my collection I sold. Including the original Invader.

However, I was disappointed to see stickers for this set as well. I do wish LEGO would've done printed for the Cruiser and any of the retro sets. You explained yourself well, but what did you mean about it would be hard for LEGO to reprint again? Meaning, they wouldn't run printed pieces for limited edition sets? I can't see how that would be so hard in 2023? Or am I missing a certain point?
