Summary: A smile twelve parsecs wide
Review: While the new prequel trilogy shows us the most sleek, sophisticated, and mind-boggling ships in the Star Wars universe, the ships of the original trilogy are like cars from the 1950s...they'll always remain loved. Sure the Millennium Falcon doesn't look as dignified as Episode 1's Republic Cruiser or as stylish as Padme's yacht in Episode 2, but you don't exactly get a regular chance to see the insides of the Death Star, do you? Although there are probably a few people out there that like this book because the Empire's hardware is disected, I enjoyed this because of the more personalized craft such as the Millennium Falcon, the original Slave 1, and Jabba the Hutt's sail barge, as well as more industrialized vehicles like the Jawa Sandcrawler. I'm just one man, but it gives me a smile twelve parsecs wide to go through this book and think "Now if I owned this ship..." Han Solo always bragged about how much he modified his ship. Well, now you can check out just how screwed up the Millennium Falcon really is! Or if you ever wondered how Jabba the Hutt managed to get his greasy butt onto his sail barge then you'll want to at least glance through this book.

Summary: A Dream for Technophiles!
Review: Where do I start? This book is amazing! I am a full fledged Star Wars fan, but since I don't own Fort Knox, I can't afford to buy all of the merchandise. As a result I have to be extremely picky about which items I purchase. I had only to see the Millennium Falcon drawing on the cover, and I was hooked!I have read The Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels, but I found the information contradictory to previously published material, and a bit amateurish. Incredible Cross Sections does such a well-thought-out job, and is worded so well, that you almost forget these things don't exist! The gate-fold spread of the Death Star is absolutely incredible! The detail is also carefully executed, right down to the gold-foil insulation on the air ducts in the Millennium Falcon. Everything a Star Wars Technophile could want is in this book. I highly recommend buying the companion book as well: The Star Wars Visual Dictionary. All I can say is, More! I would love to see another edition of this book containing some of the other vehicles. Highly Recommended!

Summary: Very Detailed UnlessReallyinto Vehicles May Prefer Dictionar
Review: Unless You are really, really obsessed with the star wars ships and other vehicles you are probably better off to purchase the visual directory by the same author. The directory has more pages and is more interesting as it looks at all the characters, creatures, weapons and everything else as well as the ships although the ships and vehicles are not in as much detail as the ones in this book. The detail in this book is very extensive, so if you are fascinated by Star Wars vehicles then this is definitely the book for you. If you wanted a broader picture of the whole Star Wars world then get the dictionary instead. If your a huge Star Wars fan then you'll probably want both.

Summary: Star Wars in Detail
Review: "Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones--Incrdeible Cross-Sections" is an absolute must for any Star Wars fanatic. Besides giving the specs on the most popular hardware in the movie, this book gives brief histories and explanations of how the vehicles came to be. Not to mention some of the trivia is interesting. Wonder what type of ship Slave 1 (Jango Fett's ship) is? Why don't you see more in the universe? Who built it and how did Jango get it? What modifications did Boba make later? All these questions are answered for Slave 1 and the other prominent vehicles in the movie. I've spent hours pouring over the details. The details present in the "schematic" of the enormous Republic Assault Ship can be mesmerizing. The cross section of the Trade Federation Core ship is simply fun. Try figuring out how Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan got around the thing in Episode One. The artists usually placed a figure in the drawing to give you some idea of the scale of the vehicle. You don't appreciate how big some of these ships are until you see a batallion of clone troopers dwarfed in comparison. I'd recommend this for any Star Wars enthusiast, anyone that appreciates detailed Science Fiction, or fans of creative art.

Summary: The Star Wars Universe has gotten bigger...and better!
Review: I'm a big fan of the Incredible cross-sections books. I've read through all of the other cross-sections books for Star Wars, and when the edition for Attack Of The Clones came out I had to read it. Not only did it live up to my expectations, but it surpassed them. It is richly illustrated and has great information on most of the new vehicles from the Trade Federation Core Ship to the Republic Assault Ship to the revamped Slave 1. I highly recommend this book to those who love Star Wars. And even if you are a huge fan of the films it still makes for some good reading.

Summary: ECHO STATION Grade: A
Review: You're going to ask yourself right up the front: Do I need to have another book like this? Star Wars Incredible Cross-Sections basically gives detailed information about vehicles and spacecraft in the galaxy far, far away. But don't The Essential Guide to Vehicles and Vessels, A Guide to the Star Wars Universe, The Star Wars Encyclopedia, a Starlog blueprint magazine or two, and assorted editions of West End Games RPG sourcebooks all do that in one form or another? Oh, yes. But not like this. X-RAY VISION The review copy I received revealed truly "incredible," intricate drawings like in no other Star Wars book to date. Illustrators Jennsen and Chasemore (who do this type of work for jet aircraft, military vehicles and other real world machinary) put more detail into these drawings than a scanner can adequately show you. What they've done is rip away parts of the exterior and interior of various vehicles and spacecraft to show you, from a 3/4 view, the hallways, hangers, machinary and other inner systems and components both familiar and newly-created. For example, you'll get to see the hallway from the Millennium Falcon cockpit lead to the interior where Chewbacca threatened arm-rippage and Ben patiently opened a new world for farmboy Luke Skywalker - and you can see those characters in position! Author David West Reynolds (who also wrote Star Wars: The Visual Dictionary) has obviously spent long hours researching his topic. In these drawings, you'll find the hallway on the Tantive IV where Vader choked Captain Antilles, as well as the passageway where Princess Leia sent Artoo Detoo on his mission to find Obi-Wan Kenobi. You'll also discover an exquisite gatefold unlocking the interior mysteries of the first Death Star - including hanger bays and tractor beam stations. From the systems of Boba Fett's Slave I to the workings and troop/storage capacity of the Imperial's All Terrain Transports, this book gives the Star Wars fan a true visual feel of how these machines would be put together. It's almost a shame that so many of the other books I mentioned previously have already been released - many fans may feel put off buying a book of a topic that seems more than adequately covered previously. But if they don't, they'll be missing a real treat. ECHO STATION Grade: A

Summary: Yeap Dad this is a good one.
Review: Ep 2's turn to have it's spaceships and other craft pulled apart and exposed in all their glory. Once again the foldout format is still the best and great for childern and grownups alike.

Review: This edition is devoted to the Spaceships and Craft from The Phantom Menace. As with Star Wars Cross Sections it is very well detailed and even better with todays print technology. Great for children and first generation Star Wars fans alike.

Summary: The Force Is Strong In This One...
Review: Big pictures with very fine details. The Millenium Falcon, The Death Star, Star Destroyers etc... All are represented with some surprising details that are not represented in the Trilogy. Only one gripe is that this book covers all three Movies so a few popular items are missed (Death Star 2 etc).
