Hey guys. This MOC's been a dream of mine for quite a while. I finally took the time and effort to build it. It's the Nebuchadnezzar, Morpheus' hovership from The Matrix. It's on the space page.

TAKE THE RED PILL!!!! Damn that's cool. I think you captured the internals very well. Lots of hoses, catwalks, cramped and lots of hoses. Did I say this was cool? Just raised the bar again. How'd you mount the pods to the ship? Do they move at all? (...) (23 years ago, 24-Jan-02, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build)
