Ok this is just so damn cool. Yes I know many will think this is way too
expensive but it looks like it literally contains a collection's worth of
gray. IMO gray is the foundation color for sooooooo many MOCs covering just

| This is so great! I'll have to start saving today. No holiday this year I'm afraid, but Jon is absolutely right. With the pieces from this beauty you can build any capital ship you dream of, the coolest castle or the biggest... uhm... Star (...) (22 years ago, 23-Sep-02, to lugnet.starwars)
