Who said anything about the first Death Star? True, it was a huge design flaw, but one that was exploited by an X-wing not the Falcon. Plus the 1st DS was only a hundred miles wide.

Updated with heavy duty thrusters and a bit more detailing on the hull. This thing has lots of parts that wear out fast because it's useage is so
extreme, so I want the impression that the hull is designed to be ripped open for access and then welded over again afterwards.

I was looking for real world things to compare these babies to... the statue of liberty came out as a dot like six pixels high, so I figured why not go for something big...

That puts things into perspective. "Cube-shaped ship approaching, unknown configuration, approximately twice the size of the theater district, sir."

I love that you could land my battleship in Central Park, and you'd still squash some buildings around it..... :)

Yeah, but when you came back to it there would be a parking ticket on the windshield and an NYPD parking boot attached to the thrusters. :wink:
