Well, actually I deliberately left the sets at the store and posted the message
in the hope that someone else could benefit from it. As far as I'm concerned, I
only need one of each set and I already have a shuttle. Sure it's a great
model, but as long as I have the instruction book I can always build it again.
At $130 it's not any cheaper on a per-part basis than most of the other Technic
sets, and I'll never want to build two shuttles at once so the unique elements
aren't all that important either. If I was really interested in white beams I
might consider it, but I don't care much about color either...

For those in the Boston area reading this, if you're interested you should read
these two messages:

and call the store before you go. They're on Route 3 near Plymouth MA.
