M:Tron shuttlecraft

[Dreamweb]

I wish to show you my creation built for a recent space-themed LEGO event in which I participated. The event has come and gone, but only recently was I able to take some proper pictures of the thing. It uses a Duplo plane chassis, and the wheels fold up when in flight. Also available on Instagram. Enjoy!

It looks great!

Using the Duplo part was an interesting choice, I love when parts like that can be integrated into designs.  I also really liked your extendable ladder build.  Good job!

It is very rare to see Lego and Duplo parts mixed. The plane chassis looks like a natural part of the spaceship and it looks great!

That thing looks like something straight from a Sonic game, build by Dr. Eggman  Great work!

Solid build and the parts fit the M-Tron look, even with the Duplo.

Not a fan of the white or the modern faces, but interesting piece usage

Thanks a lot! I always like it when the minifigs have some way of actually getting on their spacecraft!

Well, it's not the first time I've done this (see HERE), and not the last either, as I already have some plans for further Duplo usage!  Thanks for the comment!

Yeah I know there wasn't much white in M:Tron vehicles, but like I said, it was built specifically for an exhibition, and I really wanted to use something unusual and still be able to do this in time. After several attempts, I settled for this Duplo piece. Maybe a red one would've been better, who knows (I don't even know if it exists in red ).

Glad you took my comment as it was intended; I don't mean to argumentative, sorry.
