Connecting the emerging bases and cities all over the moon,
especially in regions where the translunatic highway system hasn't yet been established.
A Crater Hound’s arrival is usually foreshadowed by huge dust clouds at the horizon.
Line 23 at the bus stop.
The Crater Hound contains seats for ten passengers, but you can easily cram in a few more. The whole roof can be opened.
A green "H" on yellow ground is the common sign for a bus top in Germany. "H" is for "Haltestelle".
The theme for today's Macro Monday is vibrant minimalism, and as it's February, I had to combine it with some tiny, colourful rover. This one is inspired by gid617's Tiny Trailblazers.

These Vidiyo pods are a pain in the lower backside because you can't do much with it. In an area of 8x8 it actually has 12 studs - on the backside.
For this rover I tried to hide that it's only fixed in the back and pulled the rubber tracks right up to the front. Unfortunately it's too big to fit in a pocket, so here's just a lame shot on the balcony.

I ❤️ Febrovery, such a great month.

Part 6 of 52 of my 'Build-a-MOC-a-Week' project for 2021
So happy that I got the figures from the new CMF series 24 just in time, to give Lil Benny a Microver.

I came across a picture of this thingy in the depth of the internet and thought, it would make for a perfect Febrover.
Being so tiny there's no slack at all in the tracks. The wheels do turn, but the crawler doesn't roll.

This one's very flimsy; I was hoping the clips would grip the black rein piece tightly but they swivel around easily.
The simple sample sucker simply sucked samples into its elephantine belly. Occasionally, other things would end up in there too!
This rover was totally inspired by Huw Gwilliam's roller-skating robo-elephant, which in turn came from his original Lego design.
These seemingly autonomous machines emerged from the far side of the planet. Nobody ever discovered exactly where they came from or who created them.

I'm always impressed by Shannon Sproule's ability to build sci-fi models in just one colour. I thought I'd give it a go for Febrovery!
This vehicle really rolls. There's a short video of it in action on Instagram, plus a couple more photos.
Well, not exactly, but inspired by. Or possibly the Russian Marsokhod (with those lovely bevelled gear wheels). I had to order some extra white cones as there's four on each axle. And I thought it looked better out in the dirt than on the desk, it shows of the rambling nature of the design, and it's fun to take a rover out in the garden occasionally.
This tiny rover is built around the idea, if it's possible to stick the wheels directly to the bracket thingy (bricklink is down for maintenance, so I cannot look the part number up) - yes, it works with a short pin-with-stud.
The rest is just "keep it small" and the speed effect is simple rain.

The potential for battle is ever present in the galaxy! Battle could erupt anywhere at anytime! A Zorg trooper must be prepared! Zorg Battle Rovers are ready to devour the enemy! All hail ZORG!
Fuel? Who needs fuel when you have a glowing stuff reactor on your back? That red one? No, that doesn't mean anything. Trust me, I'm an engineer!

What do you do when you come upon a bunch of medium azure parts? Build a Bluetron rover in February, of course!
Featuring: an all-wheel steering mechanism.
This rover started with those two red Technic bent link pieces. I wanted a really open rover, just bare bones. It's definitely not playable; the wheels don't turn much and the whole right side pops off really easily. I added the extra wheels at the back as I didn't like the proportions with just four.
More or less the same rover as his small variant, with only a few changes. I don't have four big flowers, so his new wheels are blue.

Nicknamed "Little Hare" due to it's rabbit-like features and small size, this rover was designed to be quick over most types of terrain.
I ♥️ Febrovery!

Space Sharks Survival Capsule Rover
W is for Water
As you all may know,
Oceanus (home of the Space Sharks)
Was once covered in H2O.
Then along cam human invaders
Who took all the water away
They left Oceanus a desert
Now the Sharks in their rovers must stay!
"Why stop at silly, when you can go full bonkers?"^
I know what you're thinking: "Who on Jupiter designed this?!" but look at the supsension. Just look at it. Travelling over bumps? Whazat - bumps? This is like flying, slightly rocking in a cradle.

Well, it is that time of year again! I can't wait to see what Rovery goodness everyone has in store. I hope you will once again come along with me as I embark on another Febrovery journey. I'm doing something a little different this year, and I hope it doesn't disappoint. So let's get rovin'...

Robo Warrior's Alien Friend Finder
C is for Creature
Now here is something new:
As you rover around
You're bound
To meet an alien or two!
Some are cute, some are slimy
With many eyes or just the one.
Know this for sure,
New friends galore
Make roving so much fun!
I'm not that old, I'm just not young anymore! Why do they change the layout of this shop on a daily basis? I need some new microns for my microwave oven.

Tired of back flipping your buggy on steep Moon crater walls? Fed up with flopping into canals on Mars? Worried about a sudden gravity reversal whilst exploring Venusian lava tubes?
Simply fit your rover's chassis to Llwyngwril Systems' safety frame and forget your space-driving worries.
(Angry aliens from Pluto pushing you over sideways is NOT covered by any warrantees with this device.)
What if the Space line had been introduced in 1974, with the big Family figures instead on Minifigs? Here's my take on it.
The antenna is a bit short and stubby, and I didn't check if all parts really would have been available by then.

At last I have finally found the time to enter a rover for this fabulously themed month!
Close up shots to follow!
My box of spacemen is on top these days, and I was wondering if I could make something useful with this helmet. It has 4 technic holes - two for the wheels, two for the body. Done.

Nicknamed "Mighty Mickey" due to its mouse-like resemblance, this rover was designed to act as a mobile lab, capable of covering any type of terrain.
I ♥️ Febrovery!
Benny, how is this a rover? It has no steering wheel?
Modern technic, this is telepathetic!
Yes to pathetic. It doesn't even have a motor.
Yeah, but downhill it's really fast! And ecofriendly!

This not-really-a-rover was intended to be my only contribution for Febrovery, teling you that I'm strung out and cannot do another month, because I ran out of ideas.
But then I read this article by Andreas Lenander and started building before I even finished reading. It's about having fun, and nothing else.
Won't promise that I'll manage to go all 28 days, but I already have some in my queue.

Inspired by the upcoming 60348 rover set. It's nice to be able to have some parts repetition; for ages I had many cool parts but only in sets two or four. It feels so opulent to be able to do six or eight sets of something, it just looks so cool.
The design of a genius: A vehicle that cannot fall over. Whenever it topples, it will land on another wheel!
This is the construction I've talked about some days ago. I ran out of parts and couldn't close the ring. Luckily I've found some more of the 135° angles

Quick Febrovery build (before it's too late) inspired by this artwork by S .Chiba and Loys Nuva's Ocelot.
