With next year being the 25 anniversary of Lego Space I wanted to build a
tribute to this great theme. I chose one of the original Classic Space sets,
the 886 Space Buggy and built it 12 times larger.
See it at my first MOCpages page:
http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/2063
I must say the combination of Brickshelf and MOCPages provide an incredible way
to show off your MOCs.

| (...) Simply amazing, Derek. When we first saw it at dinner, I think we were ALL blown away, robot and train fans alike. Like you, I was also a big Classic Space fan too! (URL) one time violation of the shoebox rule (grr) was well worth it. :) Calum (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| (...) <wipes tear of nostalgia from eye> A fitting tribute to the one that started it all. That, along with 885* were the first space set I ever received. Was that really 25 years ago? yoiks! Well done. Allister * any chance of supersizing 885 as (...) (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| (...) Wow, this is supremely cool. I love how every brick has all of its details shown built in, like the studs and the stud holes on the undersides of each brick, and your minifig is very well done indeed. Adrian (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| Derek: At dinner when you showed everybody your big set, I will begrudgingly admit that it was kind-a cool. good job. although a robot would have been a better use for those gears. (smirk) Chris p.s. i still think your a freak for doing it. (unless (...) (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| whoa. That little buggy took this little boy on adventures many years ago... thanks for the memories. A spaceman, a blaster, and a buggy. What else do you need?

| (...) As a fellow (URL) large scale builder>, all I can do is echo everyone here. I'm impressed with the functional details you've managed to work into the Minifig model.

You even modelled the interior/underside of the 2x2 grey slope! I can't wait to see this creation in person in (...) (21 years ago, 20-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

| (...) Very very nice. Is the "minifig" based on the 2723 with the legs rebuilt to be functional or it completely a new design? Working on a 10x scale 'brick' horse myself, I see I'll need to do up a rider for him now... (URL) (21 years ago, 22-Oct-03, to lugnet.space, lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
