It wasn't a toy. The Space Cruiser Yamato in _Star Blazers_, in addition to its gun turrets and fighter bays, was essentially a giant cannon reverse-engineered from alien star drive technology. They could blow up entire planets, although, IIRC it disabled the ship for some time and was not 100% reliable. In other words, all I needed after school was cable. :) Jim ------------------------------------------------ Changed your e-mail? Keep your contacts!
