>>8672090Scorpion Detector was the only Exploriens set I ever had, definitely agree on the weirdness of the line in general. Always been fond of their figs and insignia though. Never really understood what made Unitron so militarized in the lore, apart from their one starship (only released in America) they really didn't have anything overtly aggressive-looking. Brickipedia asserts that because only the monorail was released outside America it didn't make follow that they could serve as the foil to their Spyrius contemporaries, so they get portrayed as innocent civilians being raided all the time. Getting more inclined to build that escort ship heh, give them a proper militarization.
>>8672114I find it really helps to have everything organized by part type; when I first conceived the Unitron norail and Bricklink'd needed components I ended up dumping them all together in a container as they arrived, and after a lengthy hiatus still didn't bother to organize them and thus the completion took longer.
Of course one can argue that organizing in advance takes as much time as hunting for pieces but as a plus you won't have to do it next time, so long as you keep it up. Unlike the Unitron project I've (mostly) maintained my yellow and trans-green organization; really need to take care of recent parts shipments though, heh. (Not pictured: 7-8 additional containers with larger parts)
