Well, I'm a twelve-year old boy.  And I would much rather prefer the 'blue
boxes with wings.'  I mean, does galaxy commander look like a box with
wings!  And (to get a bit off-classic-space) does mission commander look
like one?  I would much rather prefer an FX-star patroller than TWO Jedi
Starships...  I think if the kids actually new about older sets, alot of
them would change their mind.  And the last time I watched a movie?  2 weeks
ago.

I think you'll find little disagreement when I say you're not a
typical twelve-year-old boy.  In fact I think you have more in common
with us AFOL's than with most kids your age.

I challenge you: Show Galaxy Explorer and some more modern
sets in the same price range (e.g. Star Wars sets) to a bunch of
average kids your age, and tell us which they prefer.

Yeah, I have to agree with you.  Anyway... I have one more day of
school
left (until the weekend), and I'll see what can be done.  I probablly
will
only be able to ask a few kids (naturally, because I'm different I'm a
social outcast), but I'll try! Oh, and I'm gifted, so the kids in the
classes I'll  ask might not be 'averege!'

P.S.  Tomorrow were also getting report cards, and if I get all As,
I'll get $20 from my mom.  Any ideas for a good set?
