I love it--the story and the MOC are great!
My only concern...does the Explorovore go for light and dark stone grey?
My assumption is that the Explorovore has only feasted on Galaxy Explorers, so
it may dislike the taste of a "better" color...
So, if it doesn't like light stone grey, does that mean new Galaxy Explorers
could be protected if made in light and dark stone grey? (you color folks,
don't be bringing serious color issue talk here--keep it over in .color--I'm
just having a little fun and making a joke...and poking fun at those who'd like
to see the Galaxy Explorer as a Legend set...)
