Awesoem. I ahven't seen anything to do with Flash Gordon in a long time. Although he's a simple setup, you nailed him.

The Emperor Ming, Princess Aura and Price Vultan looks pretty spot on too. Great job!

:tongue:

Just yesterday I was looking at Emperor Chang Wu from 7419 Dragon Fortress and being reminded that I wanted to watch Flash Gordon again. Now today there are these wonderful creations on the front page! What are the odds?

What you've done is fantastic. Thanks for sharing! :thumbup:

Fantastic! You've really captured Ming, and I love Brian Blessed's big mouth! Gordon's Alive!!

Even Mrs Rufus liked that one:

Nice. :cry_happy: You really captured the feel of Flash well.
The Emperor Ming is great, and the back ground is fantastic. I love the way you put allot of chrome pieces in!
Great Job

Buster Crabbe would be have with the Flash Gordon figure (he was the original Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers too) :sweet:
Ming the very nasty - is AWESOME ! :grin:
My only problem is with Vultan, he had a beard and was quite gruff - a bit little like Hagrid from HP !
Posted ImagePosted Image
Vultan from the 1980 film and 1930's film serial.
Other than that - pretty dam well AWESOME 'LegoLyons' and keep on bricking !!! :laugh:

P.S. Now how about 1980's Buck Rogers or Blakes 7 then 'LegoLyons' - I'm setting the challenge now eh ?

Thanks for the nice comments, look very carefully Vultan does have a beard. And I'm pretty sure it's the best choice from my extensive fleshie collection, what face would you suggest? I only use 100% official LEGO parts. As for your challenge, they are 2 programmes that I never watch, but hey I'll see what I can do! :)

Hello!

A great movie setup with a high level of recognition! :classic: I like that you only use official parts for your mini figures, which is the same approach I use. You have really chosen torsos and body parts very well! :classic: Plus, it's great to see some more creations from various SciFi movies like Flash Gordon. A great contribution to the versatility in this forum. :classic:

Cheers,

~ Christopher

Great MOC. It honestly needed no introduction. great job!


Honestly, this movie gets better every time I see it. (the one from the 80's)


"Flash, Flash, I love you. But we only have 14 hours to save the earth!"

Bumm..Bumm..Bumm..Bumm.......Bumm..Bumm..Bumm..Bumm.......Bumm..Bumm..Bumm..Bumm
........Bumm..Bumm..Bumm..Bumm.........


(song's stuck in my head now)



BTW, loved your Lone Ranger MOC as well. Keep up the great work.

Thanks for all the comments guys, they are ALWAYS appreciated, I have a few more retro TV and movie mocs coming up so keep an eye out for them, and of course I have a big collection of LEGO movie posters at my Flickr page, if this stuff floats your boat. Keep the comments coming. :classic: :thumbup:
