(...) I assume that one of the pieces is the blue 33 degree 3x6 slope. I'm currently working on it, but I don't expect it to be done terribly soon. You can use my mockup, though. The only problem with the mockup is that the logo is far too small (I (...) (24 years ago, 1-Dec-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)

(...) They certainly did come on some classic space sets- the 1979 Alpha-1 Rocket Base <set:483> came with 3.
