Now I know I built this as a kid ??? I can't friggen believe it is so small ::)
Oh well  ;) It will be a mild bash to go with the big ol Advanced I have started in Physical models. Mods will be a multiple missile launcher instead of just the big single and some added guns. Oh and of course it will not be white ;D

The pilot looks like he's in a milk-filled tub "Makes my skin so smooth - chicks and aliens dig it"
