1x2 Base plate Moonbase Module - Quadra-ped bot hanger

The planters and open-faced helmets are a departure from the usual “hostile environment” theme, and so this would be hard-pressed to fit well into any moonbase display I’ve ever seen. It would work better if the plants were weird-colored and tended by martians, but as it is it doesn’t seem like a moonbase module.

Hi Tony, thanks for the reply.

Open faced helmuts? Where? The visors are just flipped up. Also, what is the matter, never seen ESB? Forest moon dude.

Construction Notes

Build Time: 5 days
6 corridor connections
X-POD Clip Straps
Sand Green donated by Jenny Johnson of GardenSLUG
Green trans 2x2 bricks from PaB
1x1 and 2x2 spider printed tiles
Petting arms - Dino Tails and Bionicle joints
Splits down center via Technic pins
“LEGO” Printed bricks from Master Builders in Enfield CT.
Probably take better pics at a later time

6 connections: Thumbs way up

Petting arms: I gotta admit that’s cute- is the mech Beeesh’s pet?

Chili pre-dates the Beeesh.

X-POD straps: Huh? What do these add to the facility? Oh, wait... that’s to go with the “puppy” theme, isn’t it? Hm.

Tony, the pod straps are a form of restraint/harness, just as the other Mech Bays have surrounding gantries.

Though they do seem like leashes, right?

I'd love to see all of 'em hooked up and populated with mechy goodness. It (...) (19 years ago, 25-Jan-05, to lugnet.build.mecha, lugnet.space, FTX)
