Thanks much all! I'd love to see what models are made, either real or CG, based off my schematics.

Re: rear hatch, etc.: Yes, I was actually thinking about the inconsistencies between the filming miniature and the internal/external sets during the process of making this particular one. Not only is the personnel access door in the wrong place, but the landing gears are mysteriously absent as well, IIRC. I don't even want to think about where the LandRam would have been stored, as there are no "hatches" on the model to speak of, other than the main personnel doors. There are also the HALO chutes that they dropped through for the "Living Legend" Gamoray assault that don't really match up to anything on the bottom of the model. Now, that's not to say that the sets weren't absolutely stunning in their own right - they were - they just seemed to spend more time paying attention to making something that worked in a studio rather than match it up to the model. I suspect that, if they had the CG capabilities back then that they do now, things would have been a lot easier. They just would have had to make a practical door with some steps in front of a green screen with a digital matte painting. Would have been really cool. Thanks again!
