Yeah, I wouldn't mind having a couple more of those myself. Those came
from the 1787 Unitron Crater Crawler.
Regarding uniforms, I'm not sure if anyone caught it yet, but I did try to
separate occupation by color. The Captain wears blue, followed by the
rest of the command staff wearing red. Weapons officers wear black, and
Engineers wear yellow. I also liked giving the commanding officers dark
gray pants when possible, but I only had a couple, so the Weapons
commander ended up with black. Also note the Ice Planet visors on the
Engineering staff... I wanted them to have a more "blast helmet" feel
since they work in the same room with a reactor core. I would have
preferred every figure to have Futuron torsos, but alas, I only owned one
box of Futuron minifigs. I'll have to stock up.
