King_Arthur Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 Who doesn't love the Moonbase Alpha Universe borns during the TVShow aired from 1975 to 1977 called "SPACE: 1999" and produced by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson creators of other cult series like the Thunderbirds and UFO. The eagles are iconic spacecrafts from the serie which I always wanted to build in Lego. Since few time Lego production give me the opportunity to get some parts which fit perfectly with the design of these. Of course I made them take part of Lego.Ideas in order to make a real fleet, one day... You can support this project if you want. https://ideas.lego.com/projects/119421 Quote
fred67 Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 I supported this a long time ago... it sadly seems there aren't that many older fans who loved Space 1999. It's the perfect size for an Ideas project, too. Quote
snefroe Posted August 17, 2016 Posted August 17, 2016 I think it's a pretty cool moc. yeah... this ship is iconic, wish Lego would make a UCS -model ... yeah... never gonna happen. Space 1999 ... that's a long time ago... Quote
GeoBrick Posted August 19, 2016 Posted August 19, 2016 Still keeping my fingers crossed for the 3000 votes mark... for the next promised parts update that is. Quote

tedbeard Posted August 19, 2016 Posted August 19, 2016 I supported this already as well. I cannot believe it has not gotten more than it has. You have done such a great job of making such a classic sci-fi vehicle. Quote
King_Arthur Posted August 23, 2016 Author Posted August 23, 2016 I cannot believe it has not gotten more than it has. You have done such a great job of making such a classic sci-fi vehicle. Sadly, I think people supports what they already know, I mean a recognizable idea. The young generation has never seen the show, so... Quote
Q3671 Posted August 23, 2016 Posted August 23, 2016 i support the Eagle a time ago, had a photo on my twitter account and a link but no succes, shame. Thanks for the building istructions Quote
King_Arthur Posted August 25, 2016 Author Posted August 25, 2016 Thanks for the building instructions Funny, since I put my building instructions online, some hazardous improvement from the original design appear here and there. Quote
BrickJagger Posted August 26, 2016 Posted August 26, 2016 Nice work! Interesting techniques used throughout. Quote
Mattallica Posted August 29, 2016 Posted August 29, 2016 I love this, would like to see your build instructions for the passenger module Quote

Mattallica Posted August 29, 2016 Posted August 29, 2016 (edited) Check my FlickR account : https://www.flickr.c...57659725147920/ no, the passenger module , not the command module ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Edited August 29, 2016 by Mattallica Quote
lvassa Posted August 29, 2016 Posted August 29, 2016 Very nicely done - and the instructions are appreciated, thanks! Quote
King_Arthur Posted August 30, 2016 Author Posted August 30, 2016 no, the passenger module , not the command module Come on guys, this one is a easy one. And to make instructions is not a easy pastime. Grantpassmore alias Eiffleman (Lego.Ideas) did well on is own. http://www.eagletransporter.com/forum/showthread.php?t=161659 Quote
King_Arthur Posted August 30, 2016 Author Posted August 30, 2016 I give you a old view of the belly of the poor beast for your help. Quote
Gonkius Posted August 30, 2016 Posted August 30, 2016 Supported! I love this show, viewed it on TV during the 70s and still view occasionally on DVD. Probably the best opening theme music ever in a TV show. Quote
Mattallica Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 (edited) which parts are used for the 4 indented panels/ how are the constructed? Edited August 31, 2016 by Mattallica Quote
King_Arthur Posted August 31, 2016 Author Posted August 31, 2016 (edited) which parts are used for the 4 indented panels/ how are the constructed? Dude, it's all I can do for you now. And don't forget to say thank you. Edited August 31, 2016 by King_Arthur Quote

I admit to be fascinated by your Tintin's rocket, quite inspiring. http://www.swebrick....hp?topic=8451.0 Thanks for supporting too. Edited August 31, 2016 by King_Arthur Quote
mortesv Posted August 31, 2016 Posted August 31, 2016 I want one :) Nice indent technique. Do anyone know the exact dimensions of an eagle? Considering building a UCS style minifig scale version. Quote
King_Arthur Posted September 1, 2016 Author Posted September 1, 2016 (edited) Do anyone know the exact dimensions of an eagle? Considering building a UCS style minifig scale version. You should go to see the Space1999 catacombs or ask for help, look around to the eagletransporter forum. http://catacombs.space1999.net/ http://www.eagletran...forum/index.php I post to you some of my data. Click on the pictures to get them bigger. Have fun... Edited September 1, 2016 by King_Arthur Quote
