Interesting choice - no one ever mentions that one, but it's one of my
favorites too. I picked one up from ebay 5 years ago and it still decorates
my apartment to this day! My all-time fav is the FX Star Patroller. As for
the Avenger, that's the only BT 2 set I own as well. Also a favorite, and
also still together, but not decorating the apartment (have to have
*something* waiting for me when I visit home ;)
