Well there are many things I like here. First off I love the rear of the ship, nice taper job there, the front/cockpit area are excellent and compliment the shape of the whole thing, and finally the color choices are superb. All around a great (...) (20 years ago, 7-Mar-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

For me, it is when you get about two thirds the way through, and start to have this feeling that you may not have enough brick to finish it the way you want. So then you get about three quarters the way through, and you start to realize that you are (...) (20 years ago, 7-Mar-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Hi Kotaro! Your POD is already famous, everyone in .space and CS forum seem to dribble looking at it! Very clever use of parts, very neat and clean design. You and your fellows from the ilsand of the rising sun have to come and post more often here! (...) (20 years ago, 7-Mar-05, to lugnet.space)

Hello! For me the hardest part is to connect two seperately developed modules. Since I haven't built any noteworthy space MOC yet I can only speak of Castle MOCs, so e.g. if I have a concept for a gate and build it and I have a concept for a rear (...) (20 years ago, 7-Mar-05, to lugnet.space)

Thank you Ley. I've read the talk you pointed out, and feel so very sad our Admiral showed intention of his honorable retirement. :-p (Thank you Chris !) At first, I want the pod's landing-gear hide inside, but of-course it was impossible. So I (...) (20 years ago, 6-Mar-05, to lugnet.space)

Wow, great stuff, Kenn. Very cool idea for ship and well-executed. But what I'm most fond of is your cast of characters. They really bring the joint to life--some of the most fun aliens and humanoid creations I've seen rendered in LEGO. Captures the (...) (20 years ago, 6-Mar-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

I kinda liked the Bobby Fischer reference, though i'll try to stick around for awhile. If only there was as much money in lego as professional chess, oh the sets i'd buy ~sigh~. Thanks for the warm welcome. David (20 years ago, 6-Mar-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)
