When I first saw this model I was blown away. It's massive. And I
believed I called it a "research shuttle" instead of a fighter, Capital
engine on a fighter indeed, a touch overpowered methinks, can't imagine
that it is very maneuverable. Still, gives a good indication of the size
of the Flame doesn't it...
Glad to see some pics of it though.

That piece is only available in black and green isn't it?
