Another neat set looks to be Wato's(sp) Junkyard, it looks like it might
have 8 stud diameter flat plates.  I could not buy it since the budget has
run out long time ago :) Has any gotten a copy yet ? and confirm the part
description.
Cheers

(...) I saw that one too-there's lots of tall slopes in it on the pods...I suspect the plates are the 8 dot diameter tables from Belville/Pardisa/Scala and the Exploriens Hoverscout...
