...falalalala, lalalalaaaaaaa
With quite coincidental timing to Mr. Hoffman’s great new shuttle, I present a
small transport/shuttle craft designed and flown by members of the Eastern
Block.

I had a discussion with two of our resident builders after uploading the images
last night, and they suggested some changes that I’m currently applying. What
should result will ultimately be a better ship, but I’m proud to present this
moc here in its documented version.
I’ve called it a transport/shuttle, but in reality it can’t hold much in the way
of cargo, and only 4 people at most, excluding the pilot. I thought about it
later, and I think it would actually serve a better purpose as a gunship, with
the current blasters removed in favor of better weaponry as well as an increased
number of turrets (manned, if I can arrange it.)
Several people have already proclaimed their liking of the engines, and I was
shocked to find out the technique hadn’t been used before. It was a simple idea,
and apparently quite effective. Castle being useful to space, who woulda thunk
it?
Comments/criticism, please! :)

I'd have to agree with the comment about the star wars cannons, though- they break up the (...) (20 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) Good work, Ryan. Nice and beetley. I like the canopy solution. Does it have landing gear? It needs to have landing gear. :-) Cheers, (URL) Sci-Fi LEGO> (20 years ago, 27-Nov-03, to lugnet.space, FTX)
