Hey Gang, its no secret that I love the whole Moonbase Concept. So here I am with my fourth one. I’m happy to present my latest Moonbase: Mech Bay 04.



Moonbase Module - Mech Bay 04 - 1x3 48x48 Grey Base Plate Module.

The Zolqwith Speed Suit docks for repair. Seven levels, 50 plus studs tall, over 80 Mini-figs. Five corridor connections. 4 Cranes.



Sevice vehicles planned such as re-fueling vehicles and a Mecha Support Rig.

I had great fun and satisfaction building this two week project. One of many to come, this Mech Bay combines key ingredients that I both originally wanted to include in my first Mech Bay and from feedback I recieved.

No Mech Bay is complete with out a set of cranes, so I built four of them.



Check my Schleim:



All in all, I like it, I think its fun, its big, I have no more Blue Brick, and I can’t wait to connect it together with other Modules at Brick Fest!

Enjoy!

Moonbase: Mech Bay 04.

(...) Jeez Eric, that's just plain massive on both size and inspiration. I've told tall tales of wanting to do something like this as an Imperial AT-AT construction yard. This is definitely the execution of those concepts put into work here. Can't (...) (20 years ago, 16-Jun-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
  Re: Moonbase Module: Mech Bay 04
 
(...) Wow, that's massive! Very nicely done. I love the shape of the first floor/support pillars. The way they curve in and back out, and the empty space between them is very very nice. Is there any sort of appreciable interior on it? Like meeting (...) (20 years ago, 16-Jun-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
  Re: Moonbase Module: Mech Bay 04
 
(...) You certainly don't do things by halves, do you? This thing is Awesome, both in it's scale and in the details. It's like a hundred mocs in one, all held together by the largest lump of blue and grey lego I've seen in a good while. The 4x4 (...)

  Re: Moonbase Module: Mech Bay 04
 
LegoMaster, this is awesome! Wow, the sheer scale of it just blows me away! The complexity and detail is stunning! I absolutely love how you thought out the design of this; the two tiers of cranes, the hinged scaffolding, the ground workspace area, (...)

  Re: Moonbase Module: Mech Bay 04
 
Yowsers! (As Inspector Gadget would exclaim). Thas one awe-inspiring creation... The scale impressess me, but its the sheer attention to detail that really excites... I love the classic space style, very futuristic yet, retro in a way. I am right in (...) (20 years ago, 16-Jun-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
  Re: Moonbase Module: Mech Bay 04
 
heeheheh, Wow. I just might have to make a new rig to park in front of this. Love those cranes. The look is great industrial mecha extreme. Cool.... Wish I could be there to see the moonbase. Mark (20 years ago, 16-Jun-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
  Re: Moonbase Module: Mech Bay 04
 
(...) Wow Eric, Mechs, Cranes, and Pipe wrenches! You really nailed it with this one, I love all the details you packed into there. And the ladders worked out great ;) (20 years ago, 16-Jun-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
  Re: Moonbase Module: Mech Bay 04
 
You are out of control E. 2 Weeks?! Amazing, no matter how long (or short) a period of time it took to build. So many details...and minis running amok...and the scale...you could imprison a small child in that thing. Not that I'm suggesting that. (...)

  Re: Moonbase Module: Mech Bay 04
 
(...) Eric, Love all the little details - the container, the ladders, all the figs at work - and my favorite part, the Classic Space color scheme. At the very least, it looks like it came right from a display page in the Idea Books from the 80's, (...) (20 years ago, 16-Jun-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
  Re: Moonbase Module: Mech Bay 04
 
(...) Wow, cool! I like the structure around the main mech bay, makes it more like a whole facility instead of just the bay. -Tim (20 years ago, 17-Jun-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
  Re: Moonbase Module: Mech Bay 04
 
(...) snip (...) Whoah! Very impressive! I'd like to bring a 'mech in for an overhaul, but even my biggest one would look pretty puny in that gantry (plus I'm guessing your facility is not equipped to reload gauss rifles and missile launchers :).

  Re: Moonbase Module: Mech Bay 04
 
(...) E, that is insane in the best way possible. I'm loving the overall "CS but better" look. Like Tim, the facility around the bay really completes the package. The sheer size of it, as well as all the detail makes it great eye candy. What I like (...) (20 years ago, 18-Jun-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)

(...) This is amazing, e! You bring a new standard to Moonbase and Mecha, hard to meet, but great to see. Love the detail of it and the industrial look of the whole place. Great to see the machine itself in this context! Love, Sylvi (20 years ago, 18-Jun-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.build.mecha, FTX)
