JohnRender, Yes, I'll admit the mechanism in the "LiS" theatrical was a sleek design, very much "mecha" inspired, but in my mind, it was no B9. But, yes, it would make a very impressive model, at is, its earlier "Big Blue" chasis, not the half-@$$ed interpretation of Kinoshita's classic. Sorry for being a yutz. You can upgrade the Enterprise; you can even upscale the Jupiter (which would rationalize its internal volume), but don't try convincing us that a VR controlled Japanese mecha is our beloved B9. Please, don't take that seriously; I'm just having a lil' fun. As I said "Big Blue 9" IS a trippin' design. A real hoot was seeing both it and the Kinoshita 'bot "face off" on a talk show (I think the comedian Sinbad was the host)! Sincerely, Bill
