I think this model would be very cute if it were "Legoized" and made half as long...realism is one thing, play value and practicality (...)

Is that Orange or is the color balance really off on your camera/picture? The reason I ask is that looks like a classic space minifig body but it's quite orange on my computer. Dont remember an orange minifig classic space guy. Other than that, (...) (23 years ago, 23-Jul-01, to lugnet.build)
