(...) Why not just use it san-stickers as a cargo jet? There certainly aren't very many of those about. Jeff (26 years ago, 22-Apr-99, to lugnet.general)

(...) That's a good idea. It looks like a great little set for white pieces, especially for thin walls. I imagine a couple of folks could also use it to add to their own Ice Planet MOC's. I don't have nearly enough special pieces in white. -Tom McD. (26 years ago, 22-Apr-99, to lugnet.general)

It's OK for parts, but it is nothing like, oh, #6375, the Trans-Air Carrier. Now that was a cargo plane! :) Scott Sanburn (...) (26 years ago, 22-Apr-99, to lugnet.general)

Scott, I guess what I was most referring to was the size and the hinged roof being almost identical. Since I don't have 6375 and haven't opened 2532, I can't really comment on anything other than a comparison of the cover art. Gene (...) (26 years ago, 23-Apr-99, to lugnet.general)

Gene & All, I am not saying 2532 is a bad set, it is OK for parts. But compared to earlier sets, such as 6375, 1818 (Another airline special set, by the way!), even #6368 (The first year the airplane windows came out, 1985, I believe), 2532 is a bad (...)
