EVEN MORE modifications to LEGO 60430 Interstellar Spaceship
Some further Modifications I made to the new @lego 60430 Interstellar Spaceship. Such a great little set. Storage for the jet pack and an all-original booster module: Das Büst! (Sometimes working titles are dumb, but stick anyway).

Space Shinden: M:Tron "Iron Impact" Variant
zhlédnutí 347Před měsícem
The M:Tron variant is the A-10 of the group, with enhanced armor and shielding to take a beating, swarm rockets and a battery of plasma cannons. Whether skimming the ground or the skin of a starship, the Iron Impact will leave a swathe of slag in its wake. For photos, check out my pages: Instagram: @landreneaumakes landreneaum...

I take a moment to reflect on the process of creating this Starfighter. what I made did not function well, so I put the work in, edited my creation and came up with a much simpler design which works much better, is reliable and fun to play with, and uses 31 fewer parts.

Upgrades for Lego 60430 Interstellar Spaceship
Thanx for the mods! Why Lego themselves didn't add the thruster bottom assembly confuses me. Price? It's minimal pieces. At worst, $5 increase. Tips forward now? Just add 4 of them 2x2 dome pieces. Voila! Level..and they could include that with that price hike. Wait..there's a mods part 2?! Gotta go.
@@guyver5631 I've been thinking about that. I think it's playability. If you put the model down on a surface and press the button, it won't work if the lower part of the thruster is there; it'll hit whatever surface the toy is on. Sure, most kids will pick it up and swoosh it around, so no problem. But kids with one hand or other disabilities wouldn't be able to play with the toy. That's my theory.
it's a great modification, but to be honest, those landing gears don't realy mean anything 😅
Nice landing gear mod. Also I might have to copy the bottom part of the main engine. :D I did add some space blasters on mine, because there are entirely too many dangerous 1990s aliens around here to be flying around unarmed. Plus, this set was designed with so many cool connection points for things to be added on... Also I totally agree: Lego is for creating. It's for taking what's been made, and making something new out of it. Also also, when I saw this set, I thought "I must have one." When I got one and built it, I thought "I must have six."
Really good man! I dig it
Your additions fit so nice as if they had been planed by the original designer but then had to be left out for some reason. Awesome mods!
@@FartingDog88 thanks! That was the goal, for sure!
Good Job
Amazing build! Thanks for sharing
pretty cool, reminds me of exploriens theme
I always mod my builds and this was a great one. Awesome additions.
3:00 god do I hate that term and it’s completely arbitrary as to what is and isn’t.
@@permeus2nd 🤣🤣
I like how everything moves. The shiny sticker is also really eyecatching... good choice including it.
@PhilHartwell thank you! Fun to work some play features into the model.

This is great build
@@HudsonSubject Grazie!
nice mom! You can maybe include some sleep pod in the middle of the big booster, for deep space travel
@@alexisbrodowsky8468 that's the joy of modular designs! Endless combo arrangements!
This is beautiful good job
@@HudsonSubject thank you!
Very nice personally im working on a blacktron moc
@@HudsonSubject it's always a good time for Blacktron!
looks nice. Doesn't really have the feel / flavor of the old Blacktron, but I like it as a standalone craft. Well made indeed !
@octav1600 thanks! I guess an octagonal bubble pod would have cinched it. But I wanted to keep this the same as the other two versions, just with recoloration and different load outs. Glad you like it anyway!
I could see this as the larger thing being for interstellar travel, and the smaller thing would be a lander of sorts.
I like this moc
Love the Ships! This one looks more like an Atlantis ship then M:Tron to me. I think it needs some Color swaps to black. If I had to choose I would swap all wings to black. Like the trailing edges on the front winglets and brackets. For the rear wings I would swap the leading edge (the side ways build) to black but leave the amazing details how they are!
@@Ice-Qube yeah, needs more black, dunnit?
I like the cannon 👍.
@@calebmartinson6148 thanks!
I adore how smoothly everything folds in and out
@@sebastienlabbe4647 thanks! There was a lot of back and forth in the design process. Glad it turned out well!
Awesome stuff! You should mention your Flickr in the description, so people can see more close-up shots of your builds.
@@stockicide thanks! I'm getting into that habit with newer posts, for sure.
Wicked 😎
The lasers are dope af! 👍
@@codyanderson509 thanks dude! I wanted them to be bigger, more ornate, but they didn't store away well then. Moving parts are all compromise.
Hello there! Some quick questions! Did you custom build your landing gear or was it based on another set? If so, either what parts did you use for the landing gear specifically or what set did you get it from?
@@jamie.nolanofficial hello! These were custom, original design to fit the space available on the ship. The hinge connection is just "1x2 clip plate 63868" and "1x2 bar plate 48336," but there are lots of combinations of clips and bars you could use here, or other kinds of connections. Then there are "1x2 curved slope 11477" and a 1x6 plate and 1x2 tile to finish off each skid. It works. Play around; I bet you can make something better.
@@ericlandreneau5855 Seriously, Thank-You. This was my very first set and it gives me a starting point to learn something new!
that last trick I did a double take... it's magic! I don't use much technic, so that trick is one I wouldn't have thought to add in... Really nice Moc.
@@PhilHartwell thanks! It was really fun to build in an all new play feature.
Has anyone assembled a parts list for this? I can ID some of the parts, but for some of them I have no damn idea.
There's one from 4 months ago by @ariochiv
It's the very bottom comment, at least the way it's ordered in my view.
Good to keep in mind, my 2 legged builds always grow as big as the joints will allow, could do something about that...
Oh yeah. Mechs are a whole different kinda hard. Mine usually end up bigger than the joints allow. Which doesn't go so well. 😆
i think i've got the parts down for the mini manuevering thrusters (i hope) but the peice that connects the cone peice on the bottom ones are a torch peice i think? if i cant find them i might just put then on a 1x1 stud with another stud on the bottom (dont know if they exist) but the mods here are epic
Looking good 👍…but can you make it thinner 🤔
Should I remake it just 1 stud wide? Or one plate?
@@ericlandreneau5855 And maybe offset it by half a plate.
Think I'll work on all future Mocs incorporating a 1/5 stud offset.
@@ericlandreneau5855 now we’re talking streamlined 👍
So... much... awesome... Love it!
I work in the coffee machine industry (parts and repairs) interesting seeing a robot do it! It’s latte art is better than mine, however I drink my coffee black so I don’t practice as I probably should haha.
I work in semiconductor manufacturing, so I am used to seeing robots like this doing much more high-stakes work. Did a great job of it, though!
great idea! The actuation mechanism looks much better! I liked the movement and sci-finees of the old one better though. I think it would help the mechanism if the yellow bushings where in a fixed connection. It could also be beneficial to swap the black and Center bushing with one of the small black gears and have a gear rack piece for the movement. It would be less jerky at the beginning and maybe even have a nice place to integrate that banana piece!
But now we don’t get the cool banana!
I know. It's tragic. It's actually a cool piece, the curve on each side allowing for a cool conversion of lateral reciprocal motion into reciprocal twists. I've seen machines just like that, with a curved lever being pushed and pulled by a slide. But it doesn't work with the force I put on it for this build. Gonna stick the banana in my back pocket for later use 😁
@@ericlandreneau5855 maybe put the banana as decorative piece as a nod to the mechanical idea 😉
thx for the advice
hardest part is parts if you dont have a pick a brick wall - I tried to get into mocs - but its a slippery sloap to needing specific parts
I find a thrill in making do with what I have. Takes a lot of compromise, though. But it helps that I have a lot of parts, and nothing stays together for long, especially sets.
Lego needs to hire this guy
A fellow play feature enthusiast! These mechanisms are absolutely incredible!
Oh yeah. My aim is to make features robust enough to be played with.
@@ericlandreneau5855 Its a really under-represented goal in the Lego community, its really great to see.
Man, this is already sick, if u pull it off is going to be amazing!
Yo that is sooo cool man!!
Cooooooooool!
The base looks good as an updated version of the Polaris Space Lab but the added vehicle depot, transfer vehicle and launch base makes this a great playset. Any plans for custom crater baseplates to mimic original set?
No plans, but not a bad idea. I do need to up my game in building landscapes/backgrounds/environments for my Mocs. I mostly build vehicles, but a good backdrop really makes a moc pop on display. For this one in particular, I've moved on to new projects. I rarely go back to revisit. Life is too short 😆
Keep up the good work!
Looks something time cruisers from 2024 would have
Glorious.
Thanks!
Those rockets are great
I've got a soft spot for the sails of the Shoddy Mariah, unique use for the neptune base door!
Grazie! The project started with inspiration from getting a bunch of light blue quarter domes, which led to the Luminous Imperator. When that was done I didn't want to stop, wanted a pirate ship, so carried on with what I could make with what windows I had left. I only had one of the blue doors, picked it up randomly, never knew what I would do with just 1... until this ship took shape.
The Luminous Imperators shaping and sails are amazing! Love also all the moving things!
