Oh yeah!, LOVE the Z95 Headhunter!!! The TRUE predecessor of the T65 X-wing!

Lovely looking Cobra Mk.III from the old Elite computer game from a bloke called Ian Lawrence, looking at the texturing & equipment, probably Frontier: Elite II.  Lights 'n everythink.

Spent huge chunks of my childhood on this series of games!

I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

That digital camo on the Viper is incredible, it disappears in front of your eyes :bow:

Mossie, it can't have been the original Elite, it looks nothing like it ;)

Some excellent models in this recent crop!

You Elite fans should read The Backroom Boys by Francis Spufford: got a whole chapter on the development of Elite:
