If I have room, I could try to bring it again, but hopefully somebody will
have pics up somewhere (I don't have a digital camera; part of the reason I
was hoping Dave Hylands would be there is because his camera takes very clear
pics)

You've got 2? And here I was wondering why I never could find one.

I was wondering if it was a common problem on a set this large; my UCS X-Wing
was missing only one piece, so I guess I shouldn't complain. (and it contained
a bag with minfig vehicle parts as well... I got a grey minifig steering wheel
from who knows where).

And yes, I probably will be doing minifig rescales of the UCS kits...
eventually. Mind you, I was planning to do the mini Black Cat 'eventually' but
ended up using it to take a break from more daunting projects. So eventually
could be a while.

Although... eventually... I'd like to do a Model Team Blue Fury in minfig
scale (hopefully with the steering intact)... anyone have one of those?

p.s. I know I said I'd do a Colonial Viper, but I still haven't figured out
how to do one as good as Bram's. So in the meantime, more Transformers.
