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.

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!

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.

I like how everything moves. The shiny sticker is also really eyecatching... good choice including it.

This is great build

nice mom! You can maybe include some sleep pod in the middle of the big booster, for deep space travel

This is beautiful good job

Very nice personally im working on a blacktron moc

looks nice. Doesn't really have the feel / flavor of the old Blacktron, but I like it as a standalone craft. Well made indeed !

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!

I like the cannon 👍.

I adore how smoothly everything folds in and out

Awesome stuff! You should mention your Flickr in the description, so people can see more close-up shots of your builds.

Wicked 😎

The lasers are dope af! 👍

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?

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.

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.

Good to keep in mind, my 2 legged builds always grow as big as the joints will allow, could do something about that...

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 🤔

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.

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!

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

Lego needs to hire this guy

A fellow play feature enthusiast! These mechanisms are absolutely incredible!

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?

Keep up the good work!

Looks something time cruisers from 2024 would have

Glorious.

Those rockets are great

I've got a soft spot for the sails of the Shoddy Mariah, unique use for the neptune base door!

The Luminous Imperators shaping and sails are amazing! Love also all the moving things!
