I note with additional interest that the box says "Showcase Series," as if this
might be the first (i.e., the flagship!) of a new subset of the ProBuilder line?
I wonder what else might show up in that series.
Upon further review, I'm a little concerned about the choice of elements to
support the nacelles. Those up-curving panels aren't all that sturdy, and I
wouldn't think they'd support the weight of the nacelles too well, but I guess
we'll see!
And if you find a picture of the Picard figure, post it!
Dave!
