Oblivion Bubble VTOL

Jack Harper: How can man die better: than facing fearful odds, for the ashes of his fathers, and the temples of his Gods.

Sally: I created you, Jack. I am your god.

Jack Harper: Frick you, Sally!

/KABOOM

 

So I'm sitting in an expensive movie and beautiful theater on vacation in Kansas watching Oblivion, and I see the Bubble VTOL flying through clouds. I said to myself I have to build this, and starting working on design ideas immediately. However I soon lost myself in the extremely awesome and complex plot. I was on the edge of my seat for most of it, and Tom Cruise performed brilliantly. Its definitely my favorite Tom Cruise film.

 

A big thanks to Evan (Lego Junkie) for giving me a couple of great suggestions.

 

Perhaps the only big inaccuracy on this compared the real deal is there are no guns on the cockpit. I'm just enough of a Lego genius to figure out how to do that...wait, I might have some idea..oh well!
