Truly excellent work!!! "2001: A Space Odyssey" is one of my favorite all time movies--sci-fi or otherwise--so I know I'm probably a bit biased. But still, as Lego MOC's go I have to say that this is one of the best scale movie models that I've ever (...) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Jason, From the preview you gave a while back with the pod, I had high hopes for this MOC - and you shattered them. This is an excellent piece of work, which showcases the medium and displays the versatility of square pieces creating curved (...) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Thanks! You're absolutely right. To be honest it was absolutely ridiculous how much time I spent trying to get things just right on the reactor. The spine sections are a whole other story. The initial design for them was one of the first (...) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

Well done, Jason. It's great to see the old 'dog-bone' in LEGO. It's been a very very long time since I've seen the movie, but one glimpse brought a rush of recognition and nostalgia. I especially like the way you've integrated the saucer pieces (...) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-04, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) As as lover of all things Arthur C Clarke (I own 2001 on VHS and I have read all 4 books in the series and a bunch more Clarke besides), I gotta say that this is way cool. And as a lover of lego, I gotta say that this is way cool :) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-04, to lugnet.space)
