It's shape reminds me of some of the late 70's anime that patterned smaller
ships after the long and bulbus forms of the American muscle cars of the time.

Thanks! This model was very much old-anime-inspired. I wanted it to have

I never really made the connection between anime and muscle cars, but you're

Bonus points if you can tell me what show inspired the name, number, and
color scheme  :-)
