  Motor 5011 identification and set itinerary
 
Can anyone tell me what the 5011 9v motor looks like? What set or sets contain this motor? There is another motor, numbered 5114, in the S@H catalog. Is there any similarity between the 5114 and the 5011? TIA. Billb. (27 years ago, 7-Apr-99, to lugnet.build)
 
  Microfig Scale Millenium Falcon, Take Two.
 
After taking a hard look at the scale of my MF Falcon model and that web page that steve posted, I decided to take another shot at modeling the Falcon. I am very pleased with this version (posted to lugnet.cad.dat). It is truer to both the original (...) (27 years ago, 6-Apr-99, to lugnet.build, lugnet.starwars)
