I'm sure some of you have seen this gem, but since its debut over the weekend on MOCPages it has been buried under a heap of steaming bionicle. Check out the 8ft of in-your-face action! (URL) I've traded emails with the 'creator' Ed, he's a lurker (...) (19 years ago, 31-Jan-05, to lugnet.space) !!

(...) That is one <expletive deleted since LUGNET asked me to be polite> awesome MOC. I love the angluler look and feel. If this is a taste of what's to come, I'm excited. -Orion (19 years ago, 31-Jan-05, to lugnet.space)

(...) I don't want to exaggerate, but this is probably THE coolest LEGO spaceship I have seen since witnessing the glory of Ken Takeuchi's microfig fleet and Joel Kuester's Infinity, a couple of years back. I say this because this ship is just so (...) (19 years ago, 31-Jan-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) When I saw this over the weekend I kept hoping Ed would post here so I could let him know how fantastic I think this MOC is. Thanks for pointing out that there is a mocpage for it (I should start visiting that site). I am completely in awe at (...) (19 years ago, 31-Jan-05, to lugnet.space)

(...) Ed, this is pretty awesome. It's cheeky to see you call this a destroyer when most other sorts would call it a Capital ship. I can see it more as a destroyer, and I'd like to build something similar, maybe in a different life where I have (...) (19 years ago, 31-Jan-05, to lugnet.space)

(...) This ship is easily one of the best ever. It is up there with the bastions of SHIP glory - Dan Jassim's (URL), (URL) the Osiris>, Keith Goldman's (URL) Dune Worm>, Chris Giddens' (URL), and Adrian Drake's (URL) Tribunal>. But I have beef with (...) (19 years ago, 31-Jan-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) I like the ship a lot but I'm with Lenny that it needs some better pics. Also, someone mentioned in my (URL) blog> that he's using clones in it and it looks like it's true. I wonder how much of it is clone. (URL) [ j o n ] (URL) [ z e m i d o (...) (19 years ago, 31-Jan-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Out of the thousand of bricks that it probably took to build this I spotted only a few clone bricks and they were used in bulkheads and other structural elements. I wouldn't slight him for this since it was probably a choice between paying for (...) (19 years ago, 1-Feb-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Let me add my praise, especially of some of the angular structures. The bridge and the blue wedge are bit unconventional and neat, and I really like the tail and engines. The whole ship has a bit of a classic space feel to me. On the other (...) (19 years ago, 2-Feb-05, to lugnet.space)

(...) Yes I did use a few 'clone' bricks as I ran out of bricks that were grey and 2x2 or 2x4. The ship needs a lot of then to tie various parts of the panelling together, for choice I wouldn't use them and if I can fid some ways around that I'll (...) (19 years ago, 3-Feb-05, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) What I find so impressive is how the MOC comes together and works as a complete whole within the shell of the ship. Escape pods, extendable docking hatch, and engineering are just fantastic. For what it is worth, I would suggest a bridge that (...) (19 years ago, 5-Feb-05, to lugnet.space)
