   Excellent, I love that picture. The #80035 was already a pretty darn good spaceship for $130 and very big, but the #10497 dwarfs it in size and features for $100. I keep wanting to buy another #10497 .... Between the #80035, the #76832, and the #10497 it's been a really good year for Space fans.

   For comparison: #10497 Galaxy Explorer and #80035 Galactic Explorer.

   My lightly modded #10497, alternate "924", and original #924 (#487 in the U.S.). With all the leftover parts from the second #10497, the alternate "918" will require only a few parts from my collection.

   Following on from the Galaxy Explorer 10497 and the Yellow Taxi 40468, just finished the Material Handler 42144

   I built my third #10497 as the #918 version. I am very excited for the rumored early 2023 Blacktron GWP.

   ^^ Well that settles it then, I'll put this on my list and pick one up after my 10497 fever subsides and I need a fix =oD

   Bag 1 of #10497 done. I'm at a picnic table in a county park about 15 miles (25 km) from home. It's a beautiful day, not as hot or humid as the weekend.

   I wasn’t sure what to do with my extra copy of #10497 and I didn’t really care for the LL918 & LL924 alt builds so I found this on Rebrickable by Eclipse_: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-130818/Eclipse_/galaxy-mech-miner/#details

   #40744 Piñata. I'm at the park; in the background is the picnic table where I built #10497 Galaxy Explorer and #75337 AT-TE Walker last summer. Today I saw: Canada geese, mallards, common mergansers, hooded mergansers, gulls, an osprey, more than a dozen bald eagles, and six deer. :) @Lo1sJess

    @560Heliport Your #10497 mods inspired me to make a small change of my own. The blocky aft engine section needed a bit more sloped coolness like the original, IMHO. Staggered the wing struts, too....
