[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] The Conestoga certainly is impressive. Perhaps too impressive for her own good, in at least two ways... Would Earth really be able to field something as "purpose-built" in the late 21st century? I'd expect something that looks more cobbled together than that, on the vein of the Valiant "hobby model". And would a colony ship really be this big? How does the monster land? She does land, doesn't she, so that the colony can be built out of her components? The intriguing prow of the ship could have some functionality on the surface. Perhaps a crane system for offloading the cargo and for dismantling the vessel? The four "headlights" atop the bow could be the deflectors. Or then the three blue ones farther down are. But I'd have hoped for even more functionality in the looks. Say, an indication of how the ship falls apart at the seams after landing. Don't take me wrong, though - she's a beauty. And far from an anachronism or a shoddy job. Which is weird, considering how little we saw of her in the end. Timo Saloniemi [/QB][/QUOTE]
