Thanks again, it all makes perfect sense now. Thought it seems, even with
amazing arm strength and some faith in the Force (i.e. a higher power and/or
the magnetic strength of LEGO magnets), zooming the ISD around at all, sans
stand, would be a risky proposition at best. Has anyone tried shaking the
ship back and forth to see if the plates can pop off? Sounds like a tenuous
connection if it's only 3 2x1 connections along the trench for each of the
four large plate sections.
