Hey, here's a dumb question. Is the interior (corridors and the like) of the moonbase considered sealed from the outside? In other words, could respective minfigs walking about inside doff their helmets and airtanks without risking peril? The reason (...) (22 years ago, 4-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.us.texlug)

However, a little organization never hurt anyone :-) Mine is on one large baseplate and has (...) (22 years ago, 3-Mar-03, to lugnet.org.us.texlug)

So we have a locked space for our stuff to sleep in overnight... Do we have unlimited tables? If not, how many do we have access to? We used about 20 last time (does that sound right?)
