[MOC] Villain Speeder

[Kevin W]

Hello together,

After a longer construction break I have resolved to build a Moc. So this is my first Moc in this year.

Maybe someone of you has the Episode 7 encyclopedia. In the register I have found a little picture of the villain speeder on Jakku. I liked it and then I decidet to build it.

I hope you like it. :)

I like it! Great rendition.

VERY nicely done, Kevin W.!

I saw the Hasbro version of this in the stores, but really like the way it looks in minifig scale.

Thanks for posting this!

I have not watched the movie yet nor I have that encyclopedia, but the speeder looks very nice. Excellent work!

I love the effect of the flexible hoses, I have to bricklink some. Is the roof stable enough to hold the vehicle and swoosh it?

Also,could you please place a minifigure inside to see how it fits?

nice shaping & color scheme

Really, really nice work! The dark orange accent is just perfect.

Love it! The forward vanes are my favorite part. I actually have a half-finished version of this at my Lego table.... you beat me to it! The visual dictionary is chock-full of cool stuff waiting to be MOCed. Keep up the good work!

I never spotted this in the movie, but it certainly looks really cool and a great design

Thanks for your feedback!

No, de roof is not so stable as it looks. I have not swooshed it yet, but I think this isn´t a really good idea. So the speeder is really unstable.

And here is a photo with an minifigure. (Me for scale ;) )

I had not expected that somebody would build this speeder because it´s really unknown. But I also would want to see your version. :)
