Produktbeschreibungen
Amazon.co.uk
The popularity of the Star Wars films seems only to grow with time, and the release of the new "prequel" trilogy is sure to add to that ever-burgeoning fame. Star Wars: Incredible Cross-sections is another in Dorling Kindersley's beautifully produced series of companion books providing interesting background trivia to the all-time classic trilogy. Using the full colour cross-section artwork techniques familiar from previous DK illustrated works, Reynolds, Jenssen and Chasemore collectively reveal the inner workings of 15 of the key vehicles and spacecraft from the original three films. Want to know how the ungainly AT-AT walkers (the metallic behemoths witnessed at the beginning of The Empire Strikes Back) manage to move and the ethos behind their unusual design? Or perhaps the combat advantages of a TIE fighter over a T-65 X-wing, or even the modifications made over the years to Han Solo's legendary YT-1300 stock light freighter, better known as the Millennium Falcon? This book will make all clear, illustrating it (almost literally) down to the last screw. To my mind, this is the real strength of the book--the texture and precision of Jenssen and Chasemore's illustrations bears the most minute examination, and even those with no knowledge of or interest in Star Wars would surely marvel at these wonderful examples of sci-fi art. But, of course, this is really a book aimed at the committed fan, and the information David West Reynolds has retrieved from his research into the Lucasfilm archives will leave none of them disappointed. --Alisdair Bowles

Who knew proton torpedoes were so expensive? Apparently that's why Luke only had one pair when he set out to take down the Death Star. And that's not the only bit of trivia you'll bring away from this aptly subtitled Ultimate Guide to Star Wars Vehicles and Spacecraft. Whether you're looking for the bathroom on Jabba's sail barge or you just want to see where Boba Fett catches a few winks on Slave I, this is the book for you. In Star Wars: Incredible Cross-Sections, author-archaeologist David West Reynolds zooms out from cataloguing minutiae as he did in Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary, and instead takes apart the big toys of Star Wars, from AT-ATs to X-Wings.
Full-color, exploded technical illustrations get you under the hood of every noteworthy ship in the Star Wars trilogy, from a grand tour of a Jawa Sandcrawler to a sprawling, four-page foldout of (what else but?) the Death Star. Detailed labels and realistic, miniature depictions of crew and characters roaming around each ship are so engaging that you may find yourself imagining you're on the Millennium Falcon giving Chewie a hand with the power couplings. --Paul Hughes

if you are involved in RPGs that deal with star wars or just sience fiction, this can really help you create a couple of interesting runs.
Alas, I bought it hoping to get detailed blueprints for a flying falcon modell, but the pictures are unusagle for this task.
A pitty for me, but this is not the fault of the book ... it's quite pretty !

This book has it all! I especially found the information about the Y-wing very interesting. The only problem is that I feel it excludes some very important ships, The A-wing, the TIE bomber, the "Rebel cruiser," the Mon Calamari cruiser, and the Lambda shuttle. But that is unimportant, since this is one of the best Star Wars books out there.
(By the way, they are supposed to be proton torpedoes!)

This book has some awesome pictures and some unique ideas. I was especially interested in the notion of landing barge supports on the AT-AT, an explanation I have not yet heard of and think is rather neat. The Milennium Falcon plan was a pretty good one, too. The only problems I could find was the writing on the fuel cell in the TIE that said the artist's name and 'wiborg', the latter of which I don't understand and the former of which I was disappointed by. The other problem was the labeling of the TIE fighter's laser cannon as a refueling port. Overall it was an excellent book and I hope he does a sequel with more vehicles and vessels.
