Following on my Blacktron mini moonbase, here's a minifig scale Blacktron
ship and their Space Police nemesis.

Started as a Brickfest project, the original Desperado suffered
slight...structural failure...when I tried to move the assembled ship. Too
many modules, too little support.
The DZ is made up of over fifty modules and small craft, most of which can
be reconfigured and connected together in the classic Blacktron style. Even
the Space Police ship uses the Blacktron modularity system.
By the way, if anyone knows who created the original Blacktron Perseus hard
suit - my varient is seen here:

please let me know so I can credit them. I saved a picture off a web page a
long time ago, and now I can't find the page again.
PLMKWYT!

| Holey shmoley....12 billion toys in one! As said, nice modularity Scott - this would have made you the king of the block back inna day when Blacktron ruled supreme. They still do today, but are under different ownership ;) Cheers, -Gil (...) (21 years ago, 13-May-03, to lugnet.space)

| This is one I have to look at in stages or I'll spend all my day exploring everything. Very cool! Old skool buildin, but with new pieces for the genre. This is how Blacktron would work. Land that bugger near the Moonbase and in minutes the base is (...) (21 years ago, 14-May-03, to lugnet.space)

| (...) (FYI, the Lightfoot powersuit was originally done by Karim Nassar... (URL) ) Blacktron is my favorite line of Lego products, although I was too young to buy them as originals. Oh well. Gotta love the whole idea of Blacktron copying all the (...) (21 years ago, 16-May-03, to lugnet.space)
