The Galaxy Commander
Here it is.
This was my absolute favorite ship as a kid. It was insanely cool looking with the twin cockpits and guns everywhere. It used the new thin hinged canopies and featured two of the relatively new yellow space men as pilots. Add in the fact that it split into not two, but three sections, and it was the coolest LEGO set I had ever seen. In some ways it still is.
Building it in Micro Scale was a ton of fun. It required a number of reworks, especially when I realized that the proportions meant that the front half would be an even number of studs wide, while the back half would be odd. It all works, dividing into three sections.
