How about a UCS International Space Station?  Now that would be fun.


Oooo... I wonder how big that would be minifig scale[1]? I'd love to see a
minifig scale set like that built with UCS quality and part quantities :-)
And a true minifig scale Space Shuttle to go with it (sold separately)

[1] Naturally, minifig scale means 8-wide train scale ;-)

Really frickin' huge :)  The station is 240 feet across the solar arrays,
146 feet long, and 90 feet high.  Using an extremely rough minifig scale
conversion of 1:40, we're talking 6 feet by 3.6 feet by 2.3 feet.  That
would cover a tabletop area about 4 times the size of the ISD set.

(...) Cool! Of course, they could go modular with it - you can build the set in the phases of construction :-) Hey, we can dream, right? Brad, you listening? ;-) -Tim (21 years ago, 3-Jan-03, to lugnet.lego.direct)
