Thanks for the reviews!
I had actually purchased this set to get a couple of parts that I thought I
would need for MindFest but didn't. (Two red angled Technic beams, in case you
were wondering -- yes, color _is_ important.)
I just built the model tonight to check it out. It's pretty cool. (Can you
say "vrrroooooom?") This is the first actual kit instructions that I have
followed since leaving my dark ages! Now to build that 8480 Space Shuttle...
But the model somehow looks smaller in real life than it does on the cover of
the box. Maybe because I didn't apply the decals?
