Kalais Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 I have written many times here how much I love the classic series from the 90's called M:Tron. They stole my heart when I was a child. Togeter with Blacktron II series of course. I still haven't got my heart back to this day ;) From some time I was thinking about some crazy crossover. What if instead of space explorers they become knights? And they even get own castle? And let's add to this their eternal enemies - Blacktrons!

icm Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 Nice! Now let's put these factions alongside the Nexo Knights and see what happens! Quote
Littleworlds Posted July 19, 2019 Posted July 19, 2019 Fun idea and looks really well! TLG actually did something quite similar in the early 80s with its classic space theme. Good stuff and certainly something bold and unusual. Sadly I can't get myself to do something like that with my own collection yet. Quote
x105Black Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 Really creative build. Much better at the crossover than Nexo Knights. Good work! Quote
Governor Mister Phes Posted July 20, 2019 Governor Posted July 20, 2019 @Kalais, this is awesome! For years the LEGO Group has experimented with fusing Castle and science fiction (E.g. Knights Kingdom II and Nexo Knights) but I've never found the result appealing. But you've done what they haven't... and that's look to their existing intellectual property for right balance of history and future. So on to the Eurobricks frontpage your M:Tron Castle MOC goes!

sander1992 Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 This is amazing! Great mix of Space and Castle. Quote
KotZ Posted July 20, 2019 Posted July 20, 2019 Great work! As others have mentioned Nexo Knights, this really seems like a great 80s/90s feel of them. Quote
zoth33 Posted July 21, 2019 Posted July 21, 2019 This is amazing. I loved my blacktron and M-tron sets. The idea is great, I love the castle and the moat in the M-tron colors. It's a really creative build and some great figs too. Quote
legostarwars1425 Posted July 21, 2019 Posted July 21, 2019 This is just the coolest. If this were a line LEGO themselves did, I would love it. I like how you used the Disney Maleficent horn pieces on one of the skeletons. Truly an amazing combination. Quote

Thx :) MTron and Blacktron would own Nexo Knights big time ;) On 7/19/2019 at 11:58 PM, Littleworlds said: Fun idea and looks really well!

I've wanted to get at least a couple, as they seem to be a really useful piece. I just looked at the build again, and I have to say I love the red foliage pieces and the transparent neon color, as they go well with each other. Fantastic job! Quote

Yeah, I noticed that piece to late and got only 2 pieces for reasonable price (bought 2 whole Maleficents - was cheaper then buying only that part). Thx again :) Quote
Mpyromaxos Posted August 3, 2019 Posted August 3, 2019 Now that's a great idea for space castle!! Not the nexus borring themes! Awesome mate! Quote

Krol Zmija Sebastian Posted February 21, 2020 Posted February 21, 2020 I like the skeletal commander. Quote
Abaddon127 Posted March 8, 2020 Posted March 8, 2020 Excellent work! I wish Nexo Knights had turned out half as awesome as the concept art. Quote
