Hello all. :-)
Just for the recap, here is where I stand.
Model nos. 1, 3, 4, & 5 are complete.
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/Cybertronian/SpaceContest/
The surface vehicle w/ droid to #1 are now pictured.
#2 will not be completed.
#3 has retracted and expanded views.
#4 has solid and transformed (expanded) views. The Black & Blue astronauts are
driving the Defensive Battery, White is in the command center (from old #6930),
Yellow is flying in the aerial scout vehicle, while Red drives the ground vehicle.
#5 is the same, minus one clear visor.

Have a good night and good luck to all (esp. me)!

Entry #4 is finally finished. Unlike the rest, #4 does not use a clear visor as a complement for LDraw's New styled helmets. Entry #1 is my favorite, but #3 and #4 are most likely to go the distance. #2 won't be finished by the deadline. James (...) (26 years ago, 1-Dec-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space)
