Well done Tony. It’s so buggy (in a good way) that I almost swatted it ;-)
That cargo bay is ingenious. Way to solve that canopy ‘problem’. Great
details, play value and a refreshing colour scheme.

Good thing you didn’t swat it- it isn’t the sturdiest thing I’ve ever built!
|
Ah yes, the eternal trade-off between solidity and moving parts. I thinks this
one gains more in the coolness and play-value areas, than it loses in solidity,
but then I haven’t seen it up close. At least it looks solid.

And as for the canopy, you got it under control too. Your hinging mechanism
is similar to what I used on a racer that I hope to post soon.

Hey, thanks. ‘Tis a tricky piece to be sure. but when it fits, you can’t argue
with it. I look forward to seeing your racer.
Peace and moving parts,
