(...) The grip is in the Studio sets, not the Life on Mars sets.... GDR :-) While it would have been nice if they had come up with some other way to do the Martians, I think they actually look decent. They really don't look that mechanical (any more (...)

(...) No, I really doubt that. The sets for 2001 will be based on the movie, which is purely HP and the Sorceror's/Philosopher's Stone. So it doesn't get into the second book, let alone the fourth.
