Yeah! EGGS!!! I bet you've seen that star trek episode with horta? The humans had some mining colony because they could get these precious and rare metals there...strangely, it only appeared in as spheroids....and then people began dying. Turned out to be the mother defending their children. "...

Yes, in my first post attempt (when the board wouldn't take my picture, so the post was not made) I had a great disposition on how this was clearly a Young Jameson, as he had managed to find a Time Distortion Device, but no Cloaking Device or "Sombody-Else's Problem Field" Generator. Eithe...

I inserted the cobra redux model into Google Earth, to get an idea of scale, it's landed at the edge of Regent's Park, London.
