Those are some great sets you chose to work with. 6861 was my very first
lego set ever (back in the day). I lost the instructions a long, long time
ago and all I could remember about it was a green wind shield, but a couple
years ago I figured out which set it must have been, and what do ya know - I
still had all the pieces I needed in my parts bin! Anyway, that set is
special to me, so nice choice and nice work on it. The Alpha 1 is also one
of my first sets and you did a great job on that too. I'd suggest a 1x1
trans green plate with a 1x1 trans red one on the top of it for the top of
the rocket (instead of that 4 stud block with round plates all around).
Yours is more acurate to colors and locations, but it just looks too
big/blocky to me. The rest is excellent. Nice hack on the radar dish.
The Mobile Transport is just perfect as is! I don't have that set but it's
on my wanted list. I've always been an air-person, but that's one of the
few land units I really like.
