Hi all,

Just a quick note in praise of the new AAT.  Having given it the once over
quite a few times, I'm actually quite pleased with it now.

And because the power converter units (sand coloured star wars engines) are
entirely too big, when you finish fixing the AAT, you have two spare engines
to use in something else!

I know someone was complaining about the model being poorly balanced and
wanting to fall backwards easily. After mods, this got a lot worse.
However, two sticks of blu tack (jammed up under the front of the saucer
bits) later, all is well.  In fact all is most excellently well.

And for $42 odd dollars, this set isn't bad value.

Relatively speaking.

I look forward to testing the AAT out against some runty space marine types
at the Battle of Tank Stream, Sunday week.

Has anyone used the MTT to build a decent MTT?  The set may be a natural
colours supplementary pack, but it certainly isn't an MTT.  I remember a
review calling it 'highly playable',  but it sure ain't highly MTT.

Still baldly going....

(...) Richard, I'll leave my AAT assembled as is, so you can point out your mods to the non-Star-Wars specialists as myself. (...) I think it will make a good after-dinner-mint dispenser, a bit more brown, (it has quite a bit) and it could be called (...) (24 years ago, 24-May-00, to lugnet.loc.au.nsw.syd)
