| I must commend you on your dedication to this project! It is easy to create a space ship from your imagination with LEGO because you usually limit yourself to the brick constraints. But with previously non-LEGO creaed ships, you really have to push (...) (22 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)

| Very cool, David! This was my favorite movie when I was a kid. The Gunstar looks great. Too bad there aren't any lego windshields that could replicate the cockpit, though. Build On, Josh (...) (22 years ago, 25-Mar-03, to lugnet.space)
