We've had the SoL and ISD become these huge LEGO models most of here just
love.  So here is one thought, how about making the space shuttle pictured
into a UCS set.

OK, so I'm pushing it :-)

Adrian,

I agree a UCS space shuttle would be awesome, I've been a big space shuttle
nut since I was a kid and 8480 still tops my list of all-time LEGO.
Unfortunately, I recently noticed a big Mega Bloks Space Shuttle at TRU. I
have a feeling TLC wouldn't want to do a model that Mega Bloks has recently
done, to avoid the "me too" impression it would give (although I'm sure TLC
would do a much better job!).

How about a UCS Concorde as a continuation of the famous planes line?

Cheers,
Paul
