Why not make a few realistic-looking weapons (or un-realistic-Lego doesn't
seem to bother with detail) out of lasers, and include a few pistols and
rifles (and include a few black 1x1 cylinders fir grenades)? Perhaps
someday Lego will come to it's senses and create a Military theme. Until
then, all that can be done is to make realistic fakes.
P.S. You could make the Modern section sloping down, to fit in with the
overall design (and mount the UFO above the elevator, so they can ride up
into it).
