I also really like 'Blade Runner' as a movie (the book is better but I treat them as 'seperate' entities to be enjoyed for different reasons). A friend once built Darth Vader's TIE fighter by Ertl. Pretty basic kits...and that's my criticism of the few sci-fi kits I've seen...they're very basic.

I have quite a few Asimov books myself...one of my favs (though not one of the better written) was "The Stars, Like Dust"...for some reason, I just couldn't put it down. B5 and Star Gate are great escapest fare for me, but hey, don't go by me, I actually like Andromeda with Kevin Sorbo (actually, a fascinating concept!!!)!
