Pat, I had a peek in here after Todd posted his note on "Tell me what
you think" links.

I have not been very impressed with the "official" Episode 1 offerings
from TLG, but do appreciate that the new parts are useful. I'm more of
a Technic fan so the kids use the Star Wars parts...

I AM, however, impressed with your ships, and think that they really
could be part of a Star Wars Model Team theme. TLG readers (someone
there must keep tabs on this group) take note...

As Todd noted the engine detailing is what struck me the most. And you
even managed to use those stupid solid "balloon" tires!!!

Great work!!!

I have to admit that the engines of this ship (and pod racer) are very
derivitive of the engines used on Sebulba's pod racer (in the Mos Espa Set).  I
did modify several things, but I can't take credit for incorperating 'those
solid balloon tires'.  Thanks for the kind words everyone.

Pat
