Hi Trevor, There's just something about that li'l ship. It has a neat shape with those UFO 1/4 saucers. I like the small wing/fins that stick out on the sides. Personally, I'd figure out something other than the little 2x2 "landing gear" bits on the (...) (25 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.space)

Last year, Lego made the mistake of hinting at two upcoming (...) (25 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.year.2002, lugnet.general)
