Now I have Captains James T. Kirk, Han Solo, and Malcolm Reynolds in my Ooniverse. Things just went sideways.

Now you just need The Heart of Gold and Liberator for a full set.

I don't recognize the names.

Still no recognition. Damn American lack of good sci-fi.

If it makes you feel better, neither 'Malcolm Reynolds' nor 'Firefly' meant anything to me until I Googled them.

Oh. Hitchhikers. Dur. Blakes 7 is still unknown to me.

Not one for those who like happy endings

Hitchhikers (the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy) - genius comedy sci-fi (currently I think on book 6 of 3, although the last written by someone else as the original author Douglas Adams inconsiderately died far too young). Firstly a radio show, then books, then a BBC TV series, and then recently a somewhat disappointing movie.

Blakes 7 - late 70's/early 80's BBC sci-fi show.

If you've never read HHGTTG then I'd strongly recommend it.

I think I'll take this opportunity to mention a book that someone rather well known to me has written . . It's here: http://www.palgrave.com/products/title.aspx?pid=478793. Publication is due July 3rd.

Lol Blakes 7 was a really old show, its older than me! I only saw it when they used to repeat them on UK Gold (as it was called then) on weekend mornings. Like Smivs said, it was more dark than some shows of the time (especially in contrast to some of the classic episodes of Dr Who, which I swear used the same sets!).

This is a great ship though, a lot of detail and hard work has clearly gone on making this ship. Very nice!

And the same quarries, I'm sure

Maik - Would you mind puting this oxp on the Wiki ?

Not at all--can you please provide more information? Take a look at other ship OXP pages, e.g. the [wiki]Accipiter[/wiki] to see what I mean.

Will do Maik. Thanks.

If you have Random Hits installed then you have the Liberator. But only as a mark, not as a general ship.

At a certain point I wanted it as my player ship. But the model is too big to dock, which is a big no-no in my Ooniverse.
