Ladies and Gents, The C/T-347 Pioneer

It’s packed with fun. It does almost everything. The Pioneer includes many
features to look at and figure out. Interoperability. Rock on Snow Daddy.

The Pioneer was designed with all kinds of cargo uses in mind. Mecha,
military, and civilian. The hatches on Pioneer are all designed at Moonbase
standard. That means that when she gets to planetfall, she can drop off her
cargo container and that cargo container can be docked to the moonbase. (If
an empty container is available, she can take that container away with her.
If a gangway is available the Pioneer can dock directly to the moonbase.

I looked at every pic and found all kinds of neat things. Stuff I had to look
twice at to realize. The execution of this kind of modular transport system is
fun to see.

There’s all kind of stuff to see so take your time, One thing not real
noticible by the pics is the electrics in the forward cargo hold. There are
lights and the little red sqares on the floor flash sequentially from front
to back.

That part is so cool. The extending lift rig. Nice. The Cargo Container Module
has a very cool sliding rig on the ceiling, very cool. I like how you used black
on the undersides and elswhere on the ship.

This is easily the biggest creation of mine to date. Length is 4’, wingspan
is 4’, hight is 18”

Ya, be careful when you pick it up, ya know, back pain is a killer.

I think I’ll just let you guys look.
Enjoy.

Great benchmark work. The bar has been set. I’ll get you.

Oh, hey I have a question: With this big of a build, how did it impact your
collection? Did it take a big dent out of it? Do you feel you still have key
parts to make more stuff? I see you have created a handful of new Mecha to
include with the Pioneer, but has it consumed the better half of your
collection? How much of an impact did it have? Did you have to search out
special parts like at the LEGO Store or send away on Brick Link? What was it
like to gather so many parts for this large ship and container system?
Just curious, I’d like to know.
