You only missed one, RSF Gunstar. The gunstars were the ships the Starfighter Legion flew in The Last Starfighter.



Hope I'm not going too far back with that one...





Ah, The Last Starfighter...that's a great movie. For some reason though I was thinking RSF Gunstar was some kind of anime reference, lol.

To actually answer the post....

My current ships (I'm 3/3/3/4 smugglers alliance):
Skyke: Thruster Head -> Currently mothballed
Dunelizard: Crash n' Burn
Kimogila: Neutron Nixie -> Getting upgraded to a Krayt when I can
Sorosub: Booster Blue

All of them are done in a blue/black paint style and I'm working on collecting enough looted guns that shoot blue stuff to get a full set. I hate the ships that you can't totally recolour. Drives me nuts. I'm so hoping for a Hutt style PoB for master so I can take it instead of the YT. Or the new texture kits will let me get rid of that garrish white. Anyways... I digress.

Names I have picked out:
YT: Giggledust
Firespray: Gunjack
Mining Ship: Sweetblossom

Not sure what I'll call my Y-8...but someideasso far are"Gold Rush", "Rust Bucket", "Wide Load", and "Student Driver".


My first choice would be "Deep Throat", but since I was already warned for naming my Decimator "Bang Bus",I'll err on the side of caution.

What, you can't honestly believe that you'd get in trouble for naming your ship after the mysterious informant who spilled the beans about Watergate, can you?

+5 for The Drilling Dutchess. Fantastic, that.
+2 for the "Last Starfighter" reference.

I've also decided that Jincilla, Kiowan, Chirichan or Papagod would work for me.

You must hate your children. I'm a grown man now and I still have nightmares about David Bowie's junk flopping around. *shudders* What kind of parent willfully submits their children to such disturbing imagery? It's just cruel.

There should be a law requiring people to wear tight underwear while acting in childrens productions.

Well i have yet to get a copy of labrinth, i have seen it at walmart all the time but i have yet to pick it up. Besides i have a hard anough time getting my 3 year old to bed, so i have been relutent to show him movies that could give him nightmares. He would rather watch movies with robots anyway, Short Circuit and Iron Giant are his favorite.
