awesome entries

Here is my contribution a steam lined Pod-Racer

I saw the photos before the description and thought "that's totally a pod racer". Looks totally awesome! (Even if I hate the prequels.)

Based on my love for Sci-Fi and inspired by the possible return of the Classic Space Theme (wishful thinking there) i decided to create the: "Deep Space Defender" and accompanying satellite vessels.

:O
I like that you even have cute little support ships to go with it.

The mech and spaceship thing going on in this contest is great.

I MAY change my entry to my insect, which I think turned out really well, but we'll see.

There's at least 3 other models I want to try with this set.

I love looking at the entries so far.

Kuntz · Feb 4, 2014

For my first challenge i'm going totally blind and building totally randomly without thinking with all the pieces i have.

The results are surprisingly promising.

That spider is pretty cool indeed!
I think I have to take another crack at the set this weekend.

Why are you merely observing. Join the spectacle. Go get the set and start building. The more the merrier.

I was going to change to another entry, maybe. Maybe not.

Had a ton of fun with the set though.

Bakkuma371 · Feb 9, 2014

Got round to taking my photos.

Presenting the TW-318 GARC.

Featuring twin cockpits and dual parallel hulls for auto geometry stabilistation. Fully compatible with all modern astromech droids for pilot redundancy (droid can be seen on front port hull).

Primary comms unit is located behind the cockpits with a backup unit on the front star board hull. Inverted delta wings (D-foil) gives improved maneuverability at sub to sonic speeds.

Detachable main pod for use in case of emergency.

Underside (with SNOT);

Left overs.

RumblingRosco · Feb 9, 2014

I rarely participate in LEGO GAF threads, but man, you guys are awesome. Very cool stuff here.

I'll now go back to just lurking/stalking your threads.

massoluk · Feb 9, 2014

Valkyrie Zeta MK II ended in failure ;(

Short of just enough joints and parts to make the whole thing stable and sturdy :\

That unfinished robot looks sad and dejected.

Tempy · Feb 9, 2014

Hmm, this set is a bit harder to come up with something compared to the last contest.

Tempy · Feb 10, 2014

Here's my entry - it's a space battleship! Not very original, but yeah...

Alright. Im gonna design it through that, and if I have enough money by the deadline ill put it together real quick!

Chezzymann · Feb 11, 2014

Ugh, lego digital designer doesn't have 54003, 11153, 92411, 99781, 10247, 13971, and a bunch more pieces from the set. Is there any way for me to get these? Some of them are kinda crucial.

Paper Sparrow · Feb 11, 2014

The Lego Movie and the other entries inspired me to do another, so here we go:

Underwater Explorer!

Wings fold out to back.

Dolphin sighted!

And underwater collecting robot. (I snuck a brick under him so he could stand properly)

Pieces left over.

I should have taken a picture with everything together, but meh, I was in a hurry.

mrkgoo · Feb 11, 2014

These entries are very cool!

Dude, this is the type of Lego set I would have loved as a kid

and I love it as an adult

. Detachable pods are always awesome.

I know I say everything is cute, but for some reason this is adorable to me. I love the little cannon on the front. :3

Thanks, he was my favorite thing to build. Dolphins are awesome.

neonglow · Feb 11, 2014

I tried to make an anti-gravity craft like the ones in WipEout. It also takes design cues from the Star Fox Arwing.

RichardAM · Feb 11, 2014

Entry time! Struggled for a while find an idea- found I got on better with less pieces than a lot, hence all the spares. Ended up with something very Wipeout-y.

Great entries so far by everyone though!

Wipeout: Inspiring Lego designs everywhere.

Though seriously, the top one does remind me of an Arwing. (Resisting barrel roll reference.)

And it is good to see another entry traveling the globe.

SPACESHIP!

Chezzymann · Feb 12, 2014

Here's my entry! Man it was fun making this. I kept on making new designs in Lego designer until I found something I was satisfied with enough to convince me to actually buy the set, lol.

His (or her) canon is super powerful. I don't know what it does, though. Maybe I don't want to know.

Looks really cool. I like the cockpit and how you incorporated the wheels into the mech.

I also like the grass as a background. It gives me visions of Lego mechs fighting squirrel-riding minifigs.

-GJ- · Feb 13, 2014

Oh wow. I never knew there were contests like this on GAF. I haven't used LEGO in years, but I'd love to enter the next competition! I'm subscribing to this thread.

phazedplasma · Feb 13, 2014

This is awesome. That two cities build was so cool and abstract.

-GJ- · Feb 14, 2014

Ehh... I probably won't get anything done before the deadline (I wanna build the jet first), but it looked like a cool set to get started again

.

PhoncipleBone · Feb 14, 2014

Well, there wasn't enough stuff to make a full on dragon, so just the head will suffice.

Well, it can't really stand on its own.

So I made a stand for it to rest on.

Adjustable angles and tilt.

"Heeeeyyyyyy!"

"Wasssupppp!?"

Say, "AHHHHH!"

Down the hatch.

What was left.

mrkgoo · Feb 15, 2014

Edited my entry to my insect, which I liked more for being more interesting.

BentBricks · Feb 15, 2014

A friendly reminder my entry will poop all over the rest of them.

If humans could fly like birds. by Bent Bricks, on Flickr

Fun Fact: My first build was intended to be an Eastern dragon, but then it looked like a cobra, so I tried that. Then it looked weird so I made it a Cobrabot...

What I'm saying is: Impressive, dude.
