The Bonktrons are a hedonistic cult devoted to nothing but the peasures of the flesh. They are fairly recent arrivals to our quadrant of the galaxy, having spent many years in exile. They were originally part of the Classic Space regime, but found (...) (20 years ago, 8-Sep-05, to lugnet.space, lugnet.announce.moc, FTX) !!

Holy moly! I love the white studs behind the trans-blue tiles in the engines. Very cool smoldering. Ramp is great, too. Is the grill floor feature new? I don't recall seeing piping and whatnot under a grate before. And I was just saying to myself, (...) (20 years ago, 7-Sep-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Beautiful stuff. The exterior has just the right amount of studs in all the right places too. I particularly like the engines - the trans blue works nicely against the yellow. Nice and restrained use of greebling too. Great ship! (20 years ago, 7-Sep-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)
