I was browsing around for models of the rovers and found this:
http://www.modelenium.co.uk/models/ModelDetail.asp?PC=H4601 ![]() Only 20 £ and it is the perfect gadget for us MER fanatics -------------------- "I want to make as many people as possible feel like they are part of this adventure. We are going to give everybody a sense of what exploring the surface of another world is really like"
