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...

If you liked it, Tony -- my job here is done. I have your model in grey
right here on the desk next to my all white, and now all black, versions of
my own design. A modified version of the black one will undoubtedly make it
into Castle Blacktron.
Thanks for the kind words.

Thanks, Todd -- high praise considering the poor little guy is suffocating...

...I wasn't sure of the extended dealine, and was in a bit of a hurry to get
the pictures in and the site listed.
