I was looking through reviews of various shmups in search of cool space ship sprites, and then I have seen those almost-identical Gradius boss sprites.
So I thought that if all those small boss-ships were combined to create one huge boss-ship, that would be pretty cool.

Which Gradius has those tiny ships with the larger then normal boosters?

My heart stopped when I saw that.

Imagine fighting that!
