My U.S.S. Gearing build is nearly completed. (doing the rigging now... will post final pics soon).. so I'm chomping at the bit for the next project. The "Mighty Mo" looks like an awesome project, especially with the brass upgrade kit. Am I understanding this correctly, that you purchase both the main kit and the accessary kit at the same time, then go through the build, throwing away the old part and replacing it with a new one from the upgrade kit, or is the upgrade kit an 'in addion to' kind of thing with this model?? I think the upgrade comes with wood decks.. do those go directly over the original decks? Man, the price is a killer at almost $600 US, not to mention the huge size and if you build her for static display, the case will be huge as well. Darn, I just want to build and my wife won't let me hang it over the bed upside down...nobody seems to understand this madness!!
Cheers,
Dennis
