Space. Just taking a browse thru some of the shots from the Toy Fair as posted on FBTB. I find myself becoming more of a part monkey these days and do there ever seem to be a lot of interesting things up this summer. Without question the SW line (...) (22 years ago, 19-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

Thank you sir...I like this cockpit as an open one as well. It's like it has 'hover' written all over it - an bug guts slapped on there at 400kph :) I think the variant will likely have some sort of doors to it, but also likely another canopy. I (...) (22 years ago, 19-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

Many thanks Tony....it was fun to build. I'd seen the LoM canopies used inverted in a few other models and wanted to give it a whurl. The only downside is what you found...there is a lot of space above and behind the pilot. Not quite enough for (...) (22 years ago, 19-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

Hey that's fun! I tried them out...looks good except the character boundaries are huge...3 inches above the top of the 'letter'. Very neat. I think it's a company out of Montreal, Canada....in many ways Canada's digital image hub. Kudos for the (...) (22 years ago, 19-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

I love that shape. The open cockpit is cool. I can't think of much you could do to improve it. Maybe you could raise the walls to the sides of the pilot a little bit. I'd hate to fall out of that at 400 kph. But then again, maybe it wouldn't look as (...) (22 years ago, 19-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

(...) ah, Thank you for that. might have to hunt around, still waiting on most of the 2003 sets to hit stores in Oz (well, my corner of Oz anyway) so it looks as if my Lego budget will be massively streched for a few months Trav (-|-) (22 years ago, 19-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)

I really like this craft. The cockpit is ingenious, not many open cockpits. The only thing I would say about it is you can make it have one or two passenger seats in that big area behind the pilot. The tail is cool an and the vtol thrusers seem to (...) (22 years ago, 19-Feb-03, to lugnet.space)
