Beautiful model! One question- does it dock with the original Blacktron
system well, or are the connecters too high to do that properly? I'm
curious because I really like modular systems. I don't think the BT
connecter arrangement was very good, though, which is why I use a similar
system with a different arrangement. I hope you make more entries that are
compatible with this one, because that's what really makes Blacktron come
alive to me.
(BTW, I know I should probably reply to the original post instead of to
Richard's, but I thought I'd kill two frogs with one post.)

exception: the yellow hands on the fig...

Me too! Even if it's not an entry. Better yet... make a ground vehicle
that has the tail and make the parts interchangeable.
