This thread is doing wonders for my self-esteem.


Now if you fucking nerds will excuse me, I've got a crate of prog rock records downstairs to sort through.

Hmmmmmm

I just recognised the Hospital Frigate from Empire Strikes Back and Return Of The Jedi
Hey!  Isn't that Fireball XL-5 in the top middle there?
Hmmmmmmm.  Is that a Lunar Interceptor from UFO in the middle left there?
Nostromo!  That HAS to be the Nostromo attached to the Oil Refinery Module upside down in the top left

Man, I've seen that exact ship as a star wars miniature, I'm sure of it.

The small round multicolored ship is from Star Wars. I don't know the name of it. But I've seen it before.

If by this you mean the ship in front of the Valley Forge then no, it's not from Star Wars, though it does look a little like the escape pod from the first film.

It is one of the most devious ones btw.

Lots more correct guesses. Particular gratz on Dan for recognising the HMS Camden Lock, which I thought would be one of the hardest ones going. Also to pack of wolves for spotting both the UFO and the SHADO missile interceptor. I'll put together another red outline thing later.

Also whoever got Dark Star and Kugai for noting, quite correctly, that that is the Nostromo whilst attached to its oil refinery module. Did you read Alan Dean Fosters novelisation or is that in the fact sheet that pops up at the start?

SDF-1 is definitely not in there that I can see.

Yeah I only said possibly that, but it was the Battleship Yamato.

Actually Khar, it took me two days to realise what it was.  I was confused at first, then I just got frustrated and download the main pic and rotated it.

Yeah that was a Virgin Records promotional ad that I last saw a few years ago.

That said, someone should make another one. I lack the necessary art skills.

I think that's the ship from The Black Hole in the middle far right, that's definitely the Blue Midget from Red Dwarf top left and I'm pleased to see the two ships from Silent Running in the middle because damn that is a good film.

I was going to say blue midget gah!

Everything else I know has been said. So everything I know has been said.

Same here.  But I wondered if Khar was going to put up another one, or has this reached it's inevitable conclusion?

The small red ship looks rather like an Apollo command module.
