Sure, pass it along. I bought a ton of A10-0's from Red Arrow last year to fly in my Midget and Beta. I had planned on modifying the FireFly to use mini's, but if I can get some shorties I can hold off on that.

Who came up with the funky names?

I did. I'm a huge fan of the John Carter of Mars books by Edgar Rice Burroughs. Thuria and Cluros were the "Barsoomian" names for the Martian moons. The Sci Fi kit I designed for Rich that never made the store shelves was called Tavia after a female character in one of the books. Here's a pic of that model.
