Soldiers of the TDF never invade anything unless they are provoked. I am

Eh, too much work. Even with that, it will still look blocky. I will wait
for 16 stud Droid Escape type parts. : )

Good! I can go home and work on my Shell Station then!

Yes, Scott's brilliance and cluminess comes through yet again! Like my
