I actually kind of like the airplane. Sure it's a little funny looking, but
it's a fresh design. It has a net dropper on the bottom. The lab also has a
netapult (but the All Terrain Trapper has absolutely the best "action" feature
of the series - the netapult which is fired by ramming the target). It's also
nifty getting that Belville base brick in standard green (too bad the small

of machinery are detailed with guages and controlls).

3 of them, one on top of the tram machinery, one on the crane and one on the
thing next to the crane (a scale perhaps?).  So what are they?

(...) have (...) Good set. I bought one way back in the spring from S@H, and just bought two more during K-Mart's BOGO 50% off sale. One thing which may not be totaly obvious - those 2x2x3 brown columns are NOT one piece, they are 3 brown 2x2 (...) (24 years ago, 20-Sep-00, to lugnet.adventurers, lugnet.reviews)
