I spent the weekend and today (Remembrance Day, Nov 11 in Canada) combing through old tubs of Lego for all the parts from a beloved set I had in the late 80s, early 90s. Only 3 parts missing though another dozen hours of searching might fix that - subbing for colour in the meantime.

Inspired by a video I came across where the subject is building a 5x scale version of the preceding set from 3D printed parts (here). I want to show my kids the power of patience and nostalgia; also I just want to see the set IRL again.

Should be pretty easy to guess which set this is.

    That looks familiar. My mum sold all my LEGO, Kenner Star Wars, and Transformers for a pathetic amount of money because “no-one will want that”.
