     (...) The overall shape is great, and you have tons of wonderful details. You also did a very good job of using believeable modern parts- I saw a lot of pieces that weren't around in the classic Space period, but you managed to make them not look (...)

     Ok, I want on. I really like those large quater domes, they are one of my Fav pcs! And this "trans-beer" term that I hear Kyle speak of is perfect!

        Re: Speaking of Classic Space, check out the Galaxy Cruiser! —Matt Hein
     Yet another reason why Classic Space is my favorite theme. This thing is huge! Looks like a lot of the parts are from Message Intercept base and Cosmic Fleet Voyager, two of my all-time favorite sets. <<_Matt Hein_>> Lugnet member No. 1112 (22 years ago, 2-Mar-02, to lugnet.space)
