I have always greatly enjoyed the PCS style of MOCs here on LUGNET and also at pre.classic-space.com so I thought I would give it a try...


Introducing the PCS SPECTER (Space Particle Energy Converter/Thunder-class Engine Racer)...



This ship was designed for power and speed. Dual intakes absorb space particles and convert them into usable energy. This engineering system worked so well, a whole racing genre was developed just around the design, with the Thunder-class being one of the larger engine sizes.

Of course, you never know what you’ll encounter in space, so it is well armed. The SPECTER also sports a removable cockpit pod, for further exploration and also for emergency escape. The pod itself has its own thrusters and armament.

So, where does the SPECTER go? Why, into deep-space, of course! But, whenever it is near the moon, it tends to land at Dock 31...



Dock 31 is a small PCS-styled lunar building. A guy named Bob manages the place, and sits up in the control tower. A welcoming committee initiates small repairs and collect fees for use of the facility. There is a large landing-pad and a small one as well. A wheeled ramp connects the two.

Enjoy!

(...) It's always nice to see a set of MOC's that are built to go together. I love the use of the metal detectors on the back of the ship. (20 years ago, 22-Feb-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Nelson! Great job on this MOC. You made a rather healthy lookin PCS craft. Much like me, portly and white... Anyway I like the escape pod/cockpit and the intakes and the Jack Stone wings on the back. (I've used em too, but not on a "major" MOC yet) (...) (20 years ago, 23-Feb-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)
