(...) Wow, it really does have a horsehoe crab feel on the bottom. While Ogel wouldn't mind having this, I tend to think that this might be cool for the Sea Monkeys for a land invasion craft...with appropriate refinements:) Joe Meno (21 years ago, 5-Jun-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)

Joe, (...) I was kinda surprised also when I fitted the canopy on the quarter domes that it gave the sleek look that I wanted. I see what you mean about the horshoe crab appearance from the top view. Maybe with some refinements such as weaponry (...) (21 years ago, 3-Jun-03, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.space, lugnet.aquazone)

(...) Nice looking speeder..the canopy is almost meant to fit on the top of the quarter domes! And it does have an aquatic look about (tho to me it reminds me of a horseshoe crab), or even a retro look. And I want to see the bottom too:) Good job! (...)

Hey Aquazonians, I just wanted to drop a post that after a very busy time at work, the worst appears to be over, and I actually have time to build again.

Hey Sea-Monkey fans, I've got a question. What is the name of the piece you use for the Sea Monkey tail? I was thinking of doing some undersea creations but can't find that piece on Bricklink. Bruce (22 years ago, 22-Apr-03, to lugnet.aquazone)
