    Really capturing the feel of the actual stuff from the movies (circa 2,000 model battleship kits cannibalised for filming :D).

    Looks the part and i love the fact you've cannibalised a USB nerf launcher for the mechanism. :thumb:

    P.S. Really good frequency on posts considering the work going into it.

    So. Awesome. When your all finished just be sure to set your start up sound to Shoop Da Whoop so every time you turn it on it will "Fire its lay-zar" :lol:
