well
i agree with what the others have said
very nicely done, cube door, struts and all

but i'd like to say
that i think the little ships are the best part

those things are darn cool

i'd love to see that become a fad
and see some LUGfest MBases w/ lots
of those little things scattered about

:-D

After a 15-year hiatus on space-themed MOCs, I've created a moonbase module:

Of course I had to use a lot of Technic pieces and add motorization ;-) It
has two lifts and a big door that are remotely controlled (using 4-channel
R/C unit from HiTechnic: www.hitechnic.com).

I built this module for our recent TexLUG meeting
(http://www.texlug.org/spring2003/index.html). There were a total of 9
modules in our layout, built by 8 different people. The previous link has
descriptions and pictures of the meeting.

I don't think I've ruined my interest in Technic/Model Team themed MOCs, but
I did this just for fun. And it really was a lot of fun! It brought back a
lot of memories from my childhood when I played with LEGO space sets.

thanks,

(...) Actually, I'd like it to be taken further into a Moonbase-related standard, where the ships can't exceed a certain compact size, say 16 studs by 10 studs by 8 bricks high (for example). Then people can give their moonbase modules parking lots (...) (21 years ago, 7-Apr-03, to lugnet.space)
