Loved this show as a kid! And WOW these models are awesome!

Want to see something equally awesome? The live action version of Space Battleship Yamato is a decent movie The full film can be found on YouTube:

Fast forward to about 20 minutes in to watch it launch; it's a cool scene. The whole movie is pretty good.

sweet!  I keep forgetting about that movie and have wanted to watch it.
and for any of you wealthy people out there, I can build ships like that giant one thats all lit up.
but it'll cost you about $20,000  8)

this one looks weird because its supposed to be a forced perspective model:
