UPDATES OF LRV LEGO SET #42182

The Apollo 17 Mission Commander Eugene Cernan's spacesuit building guide: #CSS160 concerns a 659 Lego brick design at the 1 / 7.8 scale and of course it fits perfectly into the Lego LRV set #42182. This 210-page two-parts building guide includes:

1 The spacesuit build

- Building instructions for the Apollo 17 spacesuit which is an alternative design built from 72,5% of the Lego set bricks: Astronaut #31152.

- Two brick lists (.xml style) to be able to buy the bricks either by using those from the Lego set #31152 (set cost around €50) and adding 181 additional common bricks (Bricklink average cost: €18), or by buying all 659 bricks (Bricklink average cost: €46).

- A printable decals sheet.

 

2 Updates of the Lego LRV NASA Apollo 17 set #42182

- Modifications of the central control panel, the footboards, the seats to move them back, the rounded arches on the sides of the chassis, the color TV camera and the 16mm film camera with the addition of a support to be able to attach it to the astronaut.

- Addition of "Tile" bricks on the base of the chassis and a fixing element between the astronaut and the seat.

- A brick list (.xml style) to be able to buy the 100 bricks added to the LRV (Bricklink average cost: €16).

- Mini tutorial with printable template to add a gold metal mesh to the high gain antenna using Chase Kesner's awesome original design!
