Here is a baby replica of the latest iteration of the LEGO Galaxy Explorer set 10497. It still has the main play features of the original set just down sized. Pop off canopy, steering wheels, opening rear end with boarding ramp, airlock sliding door and last but not least ride on booster engines!
This was a blast to build. And was inspired by the builds @troublesbricking made while I was travelling Europe. While on holiday I managed to track down this squad of space babies so that when I got as soon as I got back from holiday I could get into building this moc.
For this re-color of the Basilisk fighter, I used the livery of the Mephistopheles Courier Service, which I've used for several other ships in the past.
What if you encounter ghosts in space? Who you gonna call? Space Ghostbusters of course! And their specialized vehicle (Space Ecto-1) equipped with the most advanced technology to fight any space ghost / creature.
The model is controlled remotely via BuWizz – including the hatch door and the retractable ghost trap. All the functions are displayed in this video: flic.kr/p/2oiyttE

It was the year 1979 when LEGO launched one of the sets that became among the most iconic in the AFOL world: the 928 set.
The Classic Space theme was launched just a year earlier in 1978 and this set became a legend because it represented the most beautiful and largest spaceship in the entire fleet. It is incredible to think of the success that this set of only 338 pieces has had if we compare it to those on sale today, but in those days we were children who dreamed of having this box and our best memories are linked to it.
In '79 I was just 5 years old and I have never been able to have this box, too expensive for my parents, but I have always dreamed of it looking at it in the catalogs. Finally as an adult I looked for it and managed to buy it!
All this premise was used to introduce my new work: the Galaxy Explorer SDR-926! This year I am 10 years old as AFOL and I thought about making mocs that have a special meaning for me. The first of these was the desire to make a spaceship of some importance! SDR-926 wants to be a tribute to the 928 but with very different characteristics and numbers. Number 926 represents the birth of my daughter. The spaceship measures 85 x 75 x 21 cm and is made up of almost 4600 pieces! It took me 5 intense months to make it because it contains several features and functionalities in a single work.
Thank you for watching!
Video presentation here:
Developed as a long-range exploration vessel sized between its more famous stablemates the LL928 and LL924, the LL926 Cosmos Explorer ended up having less in the way of cargo space in the rear compartment, only able to fit the smallest design of rover available to the Lagrange-Lunacorp designers. Most of the extra space was taken up with fuel storage and crew supplies, giving the Cosmos Explorer the longest unsupplied range of the three vessels.
The lack of cargo capacity made the Cosmos Explorer less versatile than either of the other early LL-type explorer ships, however, and many planetary fleets of the inner system bought only a few of the craft. In the far reaches of the Uranian and Neptunian leagues and the Kuiper Belt Alliance, however, these ultra-long-range craft really came into their own.
~~~
So I was planning to build a sleekened, updated version of the old LL924 Space Transporter, but I think this ended up a bit bigger than that venerable beauty. Not quite up to the LL928, but that might actually be within reach now. Amazing thought.
I have wanted to build something with teal (aka Dark Turquoise) for a long time. This was my first run. I'd like to use coral as an accent color on a future endeavor, but that will likely have to wait until more parts are available in that color. Got the build done just in time for BrickFair Virginia this year, but not the stickering.
Not quite fully accurate to the Apollo LM, but the closest I've come in bricks yet.
Complete with an approximately to-scale Surveyor 3, which I'm quite pleased with.
This is my MOC- fun recreation of the SpaceX launch and entry spacesuit. The iconic helmet was realized using the existing LEGO pieces. This LEGO set idea also includes unique baseplates featuring Earth, Mars, and the SpaceX spacecraft "Crew Dragon".

The Aether Interplanetary Space Station is the pinnacle of Legoland's scientific and technological development. Designed to compete with NASA's Lunar Gateway, it surpasses the latter and takes the concept of an interplanetary space station to the extreme, becoming one of the most ambitious engineering projects of all time. The Aether has an expandable modular design, 2 docking modules, a laboratory module, 3 living modules, and a control module to which a robotic telescopic arm is connected. The space station can accommodate 3 to 5 astronauts, and is equipped with the latest technologies in the aerospace field. The Aether is also equipped with a revolutionary ionization engine, more efficient and faster than normal rocket engines, plus numerous photovoltaic panels for power, a solar panel, and numerous telecommunications antennas on each frequency. The Aether is the strong point of the "Asgard" ecosystem, also consisting of capsules, landers and interplanetary probes, which sees Legoland take man to the Moon and Mars, before the USA.
Built for SHIPtember 2021.
It is 155 studs tall, 119 wide, 99 long, and contains 10,001 pieces.
In a "what if Lord of the Rings was a space epic" comes the terrifying mobile spacecraft citadel known as The Mouth of Sauron. This spaceship is commanded by what is rumored to be a black Numenorean who is the lieutenant of the Barad Dur system in the Middle Space galaxy.
It acted as the mouthpiece so-to-speak of the galactic terror of Sauron. With a fiercely powerful wraith cannon it laid planets and solar systems under the submission and destruction of Sauron.
The spacecraft was also rumored to be the physical remnants (mouth, parts of his brain, and spinal cord) of the great galactical tyrant after his resurrection as the Eye of Sauron black hole.
Hundreds of orc and Uruk-hai worked as grunts to operate the spacecraft.
It was destroyed shortly before Frodo and Sam destroyed the black hole of the Eye of Sauron by the spacecraft known as Andúril piloted by Aragorn.
A selection of Ice Planet MOCs from our Ice Storm last year, built when we were without power for almost 10 days, as my fingers went numb - but I wouldn't let the opportunity to make some appropriate Ice Planet 2020 builds.

X1 Freedom Rebel Fighter
The X1 was a Pre-Republic ship lost in time with old markings of a forgotten faction. All grace and dignity were left behind in favor of raw power and functionality. This combat-ready ship's oversized cannons were optimized with its powerful engines for the best obliteration of its enemy. Dogfighting against it was not advisable if you valued your life.
Some say X-Wing was inspired by this relic a long time ago.

I just missed the deadline for Novvember due to busyness, but here, at last, is my first Vic Viper:
Say hello to Captain Pallas Normin, fearless pilot of the Schwartzschvvert. Built for speed and ruggedness the ship is perfect for Captain Normin's questionable racing tactics.
D is for... dark orange?
This spaceship is based on the alphabet starfighter project that my son and I began last year.
Some of these ships are based on past Lego themes, others are designed around a play feature, for letter "D" I wanted to use the Lego color dark orange. The complement color I like best for dark orange is medium azure. Using these two colors as staring points, I gathered what limited elements I had. The design of the ship was largely based on what cool elements I had in those colors. Because there weren’t any real play features, I included some homing missiles that Elliot could use to "pew" the enemies.
Backstory:
One cold weekend afternoon, I was looking for something to do with my four year old in the house. We went to our Lego room, "What do you want to build?", "A spaceship," Star Wars obsessive Elliot answered, "an E-Wing!" I knew that the Lego fan site From Bricks to Bothans held a letter based starfighter contest years before, but I was willing to give it our own try.
During the build I developed our own set of self imposed RULES:
1. The ship has to be in the shape of the letter
2. It must be strong enough for a four year old to play with it without breaking
3. The primary color and cockpit location are chosen by Elliot
4. Any piece Elliot finds (that matches the color scheme) MUST be incorporated into the build
5. What Elliot says, goes. So if he wants a play feature or design element, I had find a way to make it happen
As the project progressed the builds became more and more complex and the rules became more flexible. We finished the letters of Elliot's first and middle names and now we are working our way through the remaining letters.
Another build for 2nd round of Iron Forge, the seed part being the tap piece
A Classic Space Hangar Scene. Actually a while ago, i had a very similar build, but for another contest in a much smaller scale
1997’s Robo Master, the Big One from the bizarre RoboForce sub-theme!
That neon dome! And all the prints! It’s like a better version the Blacktron 2 pods, but it’s on this weird Beast Wars mecha. And it doesn’t detach to fly off. Bummer.
What does detach to fly off is pretty cool for how simplistic it is: a smaller Unitron Star Hawk II (#1789). A set design from another far superior Space sub-theme.
I don’t mean to hate on RoboForce this much, it looks cool, has tons of prints, neon transparent elements, and great minifigs with leg prints and updated helmet sculpts! All of that is awesome!
But why wasn’t this designed as a spacecraft? It would have been among the best. LEGO hadn’t figured out Mechs in ‘97, but they sure have now.
Final thought, what was the tail thing?
A weapon? A ‘robot’? A charger for the spacecraft?

The XL-15 enters the LEGO City!
This set wouldn’t have been on my radar if it wasn’t for the buzz about the Lightyear film’s director being AFOL Angus MacLane (check out his builds on Flickr!).
Evidently, he pushed for the in-film design to have a yellow transparent canopy, reminiscent of the Classic Space elements.
He also had an interesting spot on LEGOCon, worth a check out.
The build of this one and a cat seater spaceship is substantial! As a medium sized ship it checks most boxes for me: fits all accessories, swoosh-ability is there, has mobile base in form of laptop (stretch), and droid in the Catbot (also stretch). No escape pod/rover, which loses some points when compared to the medium builds of my ‘90s childhood.
But the elements and connections this set brings to the table blow anything from my childhood away. There are a few elements that are super obscure.
Color scheme for the spaceship is great, can’t miss with light blue, white, and black with that yellow canopy.
Also bonus points for extra head/hair elements for minifigs.
Less stellar for me were the minifigs. Buzz looks pretty good, but I’d prefer the dome over a normal helmet (I’m sure that’s a movie plot detail). The other figs have nice printing, but are pretty mute brown, like something out of a Star Wars set.
The shoulder pauldrons for all of them are cumbersome to range of motion.
The rocket launcher build doesn’t really work out to be held, but I do appreciate the built up weapon/scanning accessories.
Very nice set, strong suggest for the building experience and MOC possibilities!
I left off the red stripes off the wings. Does it look cleaner? Worse? Let me know
I’ll be looking at more contemporary LEGO sets that are bringing back Classic Space soon!

My submission to Brickset's Instagram competition to commemorate 60 Years of the LEGO brick, here's my microscale replica of the LEGO Space Futuron massive model "Monorail Transport System!"
I actually owned this set when I was very young, and I've always considered it my favorite LEGO set of all time. Despite growing up in poverty, I managed to get hold of this gargantuan model at age 6: after my parents divorced in 1989, my father moved away and tried to win me in a custody battle by sending me this huge set for my birthday. With my lack of dexterity at the time, I was unable to assemble most of this huge model according its instructions, and instead used the parts to make random space stations and ships. Then at age 7, I used components of the monorail to build a space station MOC as an entry to a LEGO-building contest at our local KMart in Lancaster, PA. I won a t-shirt for my efforts.
When my family moved around a lot in my childhood, I lost many key components of the monorail, and to this very day, only some of the grey tracks and black stanchions survive in my collection. Eventually some day I plan on installing this monorail to travel around the perimeter of the interior my house. Unfortunately the grey tracks are incredible rare, so hopefully a 3D printing techniques can fill in the gaps.
As for this particular model/photo: I built this in just a few days, with the major obstacle being the wait for the curved tiles to arrive in the mail. Otherwise, the overall project was rather streamlined. Subsequent challenges involved the photo shoot: the big challenge was shooting it in low light with proper fill light, in order to keep the backgrounds dark and the subject exposed enough. I placed the model on top of a black folding table, then achieved the red glowing background by placing a red spotlight up against a black backdrop. Then I pointed a bright white softbox over the scene, and diffused it with a reflector disc.
"Will Spaceman Zapp be strong enough to resist the mighty Squidling Ambusher Tank and deadly flying saucer? Defeat Squid general Blork and his minions' evil plans with your ray gun and quick witts in this highly detailed, articulated, tin ensemble!"
---
Of course that is Lego and not tin, but I really wanted to convey the vintage 50s' saucer toy look for this build. This MOC is of course part of Febrovery: every February, lego enthusiasts challenge themselves in this most noble art of making silly space rovers. I also wanted to include the parts from newelementary.com that didn't make the cut for the parts fest at the end of 2019. This build started when I noticed the very subtle angle you can achieve when combining the new slope 49618 with the much older 30022 tipper end.
