This is another page I remember fondly salivating over as a younger lad. I have both of those model kits on the bottom of that page.

Wow, good luck on that. I'm sure you know that there were two releases of these kits and figure that you probably want the first one.

I too would probably been dazed at that page, Clint, and would've studied it all over.  These are some pretty cool toys, for example the Slave 1 which I didn't know was a real ship.
