I hate you.

Splendid idea; excellent execution. I especially like how you managed to make it look so retro-futuristic, in a colorscheme that stands out, yet could also be seen as a part of a greater scheme / fleet.

Excellent parts usage all around. The gray battery boxes, the ‘Fabuland Airplane Motor / Engine Block’ (4616) as the exhaust, the Falcon cockpit, the cement mixer (6682) part on the nose... The craft has such a visual ‘oomph’ and an instantly recogniseable style, which (I suppose) also has a lot to do with the classic-space colorscheme (grey!) and parts usage. (CS helmets! Hail!)

And I won’t even start about the seating system.

I suppose the name is inspired by ‘The war of the worlds’?

Anyway, I’ll quit now; you’ve had enough praise for a day. Blimey.
