I would build a B-17 but that would force Lego to make military green pieces.

Or silver pieces - many B-17's (and B-24 Liberators plus almost all B-29
Super Fortresses) were sent out in natural aluminum towards the end of the
war - saves cost, weight and time not to have to paint a big airplane olive
drab.

Hmmm...  silver would work good for an N-1 Nubian too.  I don't care much for
Queen Amadala's ship but there seems to be alot of Star Wars fans that do.  Of
course having another set like a B-17 might help convince TLC to make silver.
