Yeah, they don't look as firm as bricks, but I couldn't think of a better

that in the movie, you don't notice it because the glass is very dark and
you can't see through it.

The landing gear modules are there, but don't think there's any combination
of Technic parts that could this monster up. I think it weighs at least 15
pounds since it's heavier than my cat!
