Gentlemen,
In times of war, even cold ones, hope glimmers true. LegoLand and the PCS
forces are taking control of the space lanes again. The EB threat has demanded
action.
Let me give you a glimse of our new Starship. The Vanguard LL-X2:
http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/legoober/PCSCAP/preview6.jpg
This ship will be fully unveiled at the gathering of space scientists on August
8th - 10th. I expect many of you to be there. She is still in the test stages,
and will be fully operational by then.
Also, many of you have voiced concern over rogue EB agents and pirates on the
space lanes. May I also introduce you to Captian Fazoom: Star Ranger, and his
sidekick Sterling.

Thank you. Please refer all questions and comments here.
P.S. Brickfest is gonna be fun...

WOW!!!
Chris this is awesome! Can't wait until I can see it in person! Just
finished looking at the rest of the preview pics in Brickshelf and have to
say the use of the skateboard ramps in the docking bay is great. This is
your best PCS creation yet.

I hope, of course, that for us less fortunate of us there will be a full

Great Googly Moogly! Ive seen teaser pictures of this before, but jeez, its
big and beautiful. Id love to see this parked next to my Blood Moon. While
not strictly PCS, it certainly has the right colorations for the EB.
Id originally planned to build my own massive SHIP for display at Brickfest,
but that plan fell by the wayside when I ran quickly and dramatically out of
time and inspiration. Glad to see there will be at least one monster space MOC
there.

I remember seeing this in drydock a month ago; and my reaction is still the
same:
WOW!
The additional detailing youve added is great. Finally, some significant
weaponry. And lighting details in the hangar! It was a dark cavern before...
Poor fellows in the PCSBUS, couldnt see a thing before...

Wow! Beautiful ship you got there.Your detailing work is top-notch (large retro
clusters, and the window supports topside, for example) and the bay in the back
is simply cool!
...so what goes in the bay?

lenny: this is really quite beautiful. such an elegant but unique shape. before
i saw this ship, i thought jassims dragonstar was the best id seen (not to
step on any of the great SHIP builders out there) - but now.. im not sure. i
really count myself lucky for getting to go to BF now!

HA! This proves the PCSs main object: Militaristic domination and the total
genocide of communism! Once again this so-called Admiral Giddens commitment
to Warfare and Violence.
When will the good citizens under the yoke of PCS slavery learn that they dont
have to support the PCS warmachine any longer?
When will the leadership of PCS realize that their citizens want *peace* not
war!

Thats a great ship but when I deploy Jay Hennens ships thats going to look

Jays got a ship that can rip apart capital ships if you pardon my expression.)

If ya came to dixielug meetin youd get to see it!! HA! ;-) Ya the scateboard
rams were an attempt to keep stuff from being square. It kinda limits my docking
bay room though and I may raise the floor today just to make the landing strip
wider.
Thanks for the comments!!

I know, I know, I'll be there next month for sure! Finally got moved and am
currently unpacking all my Lego. Want to get my moonbase modules done by

I think this is your best work yet, Chris. You seem to have somehow taken your
whole bag of tricks for the smaller craft and presented them in a much larger
and elegant way. Too cool- I cant wait to see this one up close and personal.

As an Honorary Chief Master-at-Arms, I've done a walkthrough and give this ship
my full recommendation for service. Excellent work Chris. This will be a fine
flagship for the PCS line, unless there's something bigger coming????
