what do you guys think? the top of this one opens up and i could put some lights in there or whatever.
I don't know the dimensions, but I'm pretty certain you'll run into 2 issues. The tail won't fit, so you'll have to trim it, and there are some switches, assemblies in the body of the shuttle you might have a hard time relocating. Go for it though, post pictures!

yeah, I don't know the dimensions either, roughly I'd say they are pretty darn close. I can see that the tail is already removable from the new model, so I will just have to cut it down to where the playfeild glass can fit, but the tail will be taller than the Williams one, so that's a bonus. The switch's and all that should be an easy job with some hot glue gun and a drill.
Seems like a tough fit. I thought about doing this but I couldn't tell if the toy was big enough. Good luck I would love to see how it turns out.
i do not know the what the size of the original one is, i am away from my pins for a couple of days. I just found this on a ebay listing, "The Approximate length of Space Shuttle when assembled 8”. Plastic Model" and im only paying $10 +shipping.
