Would it be possible (or does anyone have enough red beams?!) to build the fuel tank and boosters for the technic shuttle. It's just that I finally got this set a few days ago (my o my what a set) and the thought occoured to me. You could add a few (...) (25 years ago, 28-May-00, to lugnet.technic)
