A while ago I had created a bunch of alien minifigs with weird heads.



Then I wanted to figure what they would get around in. Here’s what I came up with:



Created shortly after watching “War of the Worlds” at the movies. The driver is a guy with oil cans coming out of the back of his head so they are called Naclios and this is what the use to get around. I didn’t outfit it with laser guns or killer death rays or anything cause not all of space is out to destroy.

I figured they were aquatic and moved around in these:

last but not least is the “Snouts” who use a beast to get them from place to place:



Enjoy!

I was looking in your brickshelf folder at the MOCs shown there, and I was wondering which canister lid part ID you used on this model here, shown suspended by some plates with rope (I forget what the part ID is): (URL) might have a use for it if it (...) (19 years ago, 25-Mar-06, to lugnet.space)

Nice, very nice. I like the crystal crab - some nice co-ordination of the transparent peices. I would love to see the squid-walker animated. It made me think of The Matrix as much as War of The Worlds. I love the idea of creating a complete set of (...) (19 years ago, 25-Mar-06, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) That's some amazingly creative stuff. I especially love the ghost crab but they're all great. The stacked canopies are very effective in the first vehicle, and I like how you used the plant pieces in the green mount. I'm going to be studying (...)
