|
| Hi all, Here is my Lego "college try" at the Swordfish II from Cowboy Bebop. To be honest, I built this about a year ago, and had meant to post it, but never got around to doing it. Teaser: (URL) You can see pics of it in Duane Hess's gallery of the (...) (22 years ago, 30-Jan-04, to lugnet.space)
