Well after having these cool saucer pieces ever since they first came out (1997?) I have finally put them to use. Admittedly, I was inspired by many of the wonderful pod-like ships I have seen on brickshelf.

It took me about two weeks to built -- though most of that time was spent designing a landing gear that could support the weight of the ship and still retract into a space only 5 studs wide. The ship is not complete though, I have to add some more greebling, the landing gear is not color coordinated, and the cockpit is lacking avionics. When I get another break from school I will finish it (and the other half dozen half completed lego projects laying around).

Thanks for looking,

Nice ship, technic fig sized as well. With the work you mention (greebling and colour coordination etc) it will be up there with the best. Tim (20 years ago, 21-May-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) This is pretty cool, very impressive to make any kind of ship for technic figs, and I really like the smoothness of this MOC. The ship in the middle of the group of three also looks interesting, I'd like to see some more pics of that. -Dan (...) (20 years ago, 21-May-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)
