Re: Bandai 1/72 Millennium Falcon
Any progress on the missing docking ring piece, Lab? That piece was definitely there during the filming of ANH. I really want to restore it if we can figure out what it was. These two pictures give some indication. To me eye, it looks like the rectangular shape is fairly substantial (based on its shadow) with a tube or narrower strip raised off the surface extending out away toward the outer ring lip. Could it be a machine gun off a WWII bomber kit or something? The tube sure looks like a gun barrel.
I wonder if anyone knows what "A" is. It looks like a greeblie, but is missing from the kit.
