Dark Turqoise Space Truck V2 1
While displaying the first version of this MOC at an FLL Event earlier this year someone from the public walked off with this little guy.
My friend and LUGMATE Bill (murphquake on Brickset) felt horrible and set out out to do something about the situation. No-he didn't hunt down the thief stalker style, he asked the AFOL community to pitch in and help rebuild this MOC without my knowing.
We both took part in Brickset Jambalaya and he messaged everyone in the group besides me asking them to add any spare Turqoise parts they could. This turned into not only the Turqoise parts but the group then threw in the rest of the parts needed to rebuild this MOC. A member also printed out an inventory for other Brickset Jambalayers to cross off what they added. Eventually, people added a dollar or two here and there and I not only had nearly every single part needed to rebuild this MOC but a crisp $20 bill to fund the purchases of any missing parts through Bricklink.
I've had this rebuilt for a while now and apologize for not posting pics earlier but the model has been rebuilt and is almost indentical to the previous version. I haven't made stickers for this model and the front end is a bit different.
THANK YOU TO THOSE WHO CONTRIBUTED! AFOLs ROCK!
