Cool, thanks for the additional info! I guess in the end it's more a matter of

I've actually prototyped a bit of it. My biggest concern unfortunately is that
I was thinking of building it in dark gray. With the whole colour business
going on it means if a certain peice doesn't exist yet in dark gray then it
never will. At least when I started building the Discovery it was a reasonable
bet that the 6x6 and 3x3 radar dishes would eventually be released in gray - and
luckily for me it happened before the colour change.
