Konami Game, anyone?

Los Magnificos!
I've recently picked up several of the Konami prepainted models from
UFO, and while I have heard someone talking about putting some
tabletop game rules on another forum, I thought that would ask here
if anyone else might have done so. Any info to that effect, or
reviews/opinions to these grea models would be welcome. Thanks!

Actually, there was a UFO game produced. I believe from Italy. It would be a
cool idea to get ahold of the board and use the Konami pieces for the game.

Howdy Big Steve! I didn't know you ever left the SG-1 newsgroup! I've
been lurking and amused by the abuse being thrown back and forth
there. I also read about the boardgame from Italy, however I had in
mind a tabletop mini game using tape measures, firing arcs, on a
painted cloth backdrop. The models are around 3", so I think that
they'd be too big for the boardgame (although I'd welcome that too!)
I was rather hoping that there'd be someone here who may have worked
out rules etcetera or used an existing set of rules with their own
numbers for each ship. I heard a response on the Miniatures Page to
my inquiry by 3 RAF pilots who crashed their ships and allowed the
UFO to land in a game years ago at a UK gaming convention (every bad
dice roll possible and wrong move you could make happened.) Then they
watched three 12 year-olds accomplish what they could not in the next
round (insert hilarity here!)

I look forward to more suggestions, because with two daughters under
3 years old, I have little time to game, let alone make up rules for
such! Until then, I'll just have to enjoy the DVD's (and corrupt my
children into liking these great classics!)

PS: My wife loved X-Files, but never warmed to UFO, go fig! Anyone
else notice that you never saw "Race" Bannon (from Jonny Quest) and
Ed Straker together at the same time? LOL!
