I'm working my way through a series of 4-wide fire apparatus right now. And while this isn't the first one in the series, this is the one I'm most happy with up to this point.

Black Falcon won June 2003's poll to be this month's Minifig Hall of Fame inductee. Black Falcon always did good in the previous polls, but with Blacktron 1 and others out of the way, no one could stop him from winning. Only Futuron and King Kahuna (...)
