| (...) I have spent some time looking at 7106 ((URL) Could the large cylinder be a plastic wrap? It would be a disapointment. Look at 7315 ((URL) - that half cylinder looks like a thin piece of plastic held in shape and in place by a few pins into a (...) (24 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)

| Looks to me like a plastic sheet, and the holes at each corner (and middle) fit over Technic "ball and socket" pins - look carefully on the INSIDE of it at the top, you can see the holes of a Technic beam showing through the sheet. (...) -- | Tom (...) (24 years ago, 26-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)

Look at the part between stupid rocket launcher vehicle and the prison cage. The (...) (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)

| (...) Good eye on that one. Yes, I think it looks like a 1/4 8x8 cylinder panel in the Alpha Team base. Also in 7106, notice how the cylinder perfectly follows the curve of the bottom 8x8 round plate. I don't think a plastic sheet would be able to (...) (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.general)
