(...) Thanks Anthony, Amusingly enough the original design was exactly as you described (studs out version) but it looked a bit bug-eyed so I moved the eyes on top. Thanks anyway. Tim (20 years ago, 18-Apr-06, to lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

Mr. Pieniezak, You grabbed the words right out of my mouth. As you point out, if you were moving containers in space, the “Upside-down” notion is relative.
