It woud be fun, but I'm working in another direction right now, I want toys
that look like toys. Take a look at my last post and you could have an idea.

I remember I had a rocket (an Apollo model, I don't remember which number)
when I was a child. The lunar capsule (sp?) was the part of it I liked most
(I believe it was in 1969 or 70).
I don't know if it's old enough.
You can also take a look at the Flash Gordon's old books. They had a
"different kind" of space ships.
Hope this helps.

 If you are the creator of option A, it's the one I like most.
