   Galaxy Explorer, 497-1...Coolest spaceship, that was way ahead of it's time. That set got me hooked on Lego bricks.

   I'll add my vote for http://www.brickset.com/detail/?set=497-1 - "Galaxy Explorer" http://www.brickset.com/detail/?set=928-1 - "Space Cruiser And Moonbase" (shamelessly copy and paste of Ian's links)

   I think #928 and #497 should be added together

   I'd have to say it's all of the sets in the Paradisa theme MISB. As for 1 set in particular, I'll go with the Galaxy Explorer 497/928. It was tough not picking a Pirate set though as it's def my favorite theme as a whole.

   Hi Darryl, - large spaceship - was it #497-1 ? - which, if memory serves me right, was one of the 'large' sets I wanted as a kid but never got. Those moon crater plates... I did have those. #70816-1 would be a great solution to your nostalgia problem ;-)

    Sounds like a fun building technique. I think I'll practice with a #497 Galaxy Explorer first and see how it turns out ;)
