BTW, this sets seems to be the only one which has a special piece, a 1x1
round plate with ball joint connector.  What purpose does this have in
the model?  How many are included?

You mean the piece that used to be the hands for maxi-fig, bendy-arm
people?  I'm not sure what it does in this set.  It might be the
connection-point for the video camera on the starboard side (which can't
be seen at all in most catalog pics).


BTW & FYI & FWIW, the new version has a hole through the ball; the old
maxifig-hands did not.

Thanks for pointing this out.  For LDraw, I'm working on the similiar
'towball with grabber' part (used in Divers sets as the robot arm claw),
which has the same hole, I think.  I should just make them all.
