Hey Y'all:

I am by no means a space-head.  Please forgive me if I am not able to match
up to the design criteria as stated because of my lack of knowledge of the
space theme.  There is no way that I know about space elements down to the
years in which each element was introduced.  Therefore, I enter my newly
built SuperSucker 9000 in the category of "The Ugliest, Wackiest Thing in
Space" for this reason AND because I was inspired by another participants
truly horrific entry into this same category!  The SuperSucker 9000
(weighing in at approx. 33 elements) can be seen at:

How little knowledge of the space theme do I have, you ask?  Well, about 6-9
months ago I mentioned to Craigo that I was building a bunch of all black
minifigures with black motorcycle helmets and castle visors, but also with
the black opaque motorcycle visors.  Craigo says, "O like Blacktron I..." I
said, "What...! They already make these!!!"

And so it goes...

And yeah, I know he has no air-tank.  I just located a white tank a few
moments ago, long after these photos were taken -- maybe I'll fix him
tomorrow.  I just wanted to be sure I got this one in before the deadline,
whenever that is...

I grew up on classic Space (1978-1986) and I still have a huge soft spot in my heart for old simple smileys and single-color astronaut uniforms. It's seeming more and more like the LEGO Space System product line (originally LEGOLAND Space, followed (...) (24 years ago, 27-Oct-00, to lugnet.build.contests, lugnet.space, lugnet.announce) !!
