that is actually one of my favorites: the Starship Reliant from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. There's a QTVR file in the folder so you can look around it! (URL) me know what you think! Joe Meno (23 years ago, 28-Mar-02, to lugnet.announce.moc, lugnet.space)

(...) I'd disagree with this as a reason. The whole Legends series is geared more towards the older collector. Your reasoning would also preclude the Breezeway Cafe, the Pizza to Go, the Guarded Inn, . . . Also the whole sculpture series (both SW (...)

Thanks Jeff! BTW, I especially like your microfig Correllian Corvette (on your brickshelf pages). I find the design extremely clever. :) Sure is interesting to think about it in contrast to the size of the LSAH Blockade Runner (set 10019). Best (...) (23 years ago, 28-Mar-02, to lugnet.space)

Seth, I very much appreciate your kind remarks. I was decently pleased with the final "feel" of the model, primarily as it relates to the resulting angles on the cockpit unit and geometry of the landing struts. I have enjoyed having the locking (...) (23 years ago, 27-Mar-02, to lugnet.space)

(...) Yeah, I have to agree with you. Anyway... I have one more day of school left (until the weekend), and I'll see what can be done. I probablly will only be able to ask a few kids (naturally, because I'm different I'm a social outcast), but I'll (...) (23 years ago, 27-Mar-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)

(...) I'd like to see a 6985 Cosmic Fleet Voyager, or a Message Intercepter Base or even the original 918 become a Space Legend! Why does Lego even continue to bother with those new SW sets? In my opinion, I think SW is getting kind of old. Most of (...) (23 years ago, 27-Mar-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.lego.direct, lugnet.starwars)

I like! Nice use of the new slopes on the nose, gives it quite a predatory look. This reminds me, I need to build a warplane again soon. Magnus (23 years ago, 27-Mar-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.military)
