I spent an evening building it. It was an interesting build, because the
plate construction seemed reasonably unique compared to other Classic Space
sets I had built, but when I had finished it and swooshed it around a few
times, I was both surprised and disappointed to find that it didn't give me
the feeling of nostalgia that I expected. In fact, I didn't even find the
ship as cool as I thought I would when I finally got it in my hands. I looked
a bit {dinky}.

Anyway, light the torches, I'm ready to be tied to the stake now. :-)


I don't blame ya. I don't own the Galaxy Explorer, but I've played with a couple
of them. It is a nice model, but to me it isn't special. I think that's because
it wasn't a set I grew up with though, if it was, the story would be different.
Same here, I have not a huge deal of interest in the Galaxy Explorer
(although I do own one of each of the 3 LLxxx printed bricks that I picked
up from a seller). My big interest is in getting a 6983 Ice Station Odyssey
so I can be Ice Planet 2002 Complete :)
