[SPACE!] Octan Interceptor

[J4ke]

Photoset

Following on from the micro LDD tanker, but this time in fig-scale, real bricks, and starfighter configuration, because that's what I love.

Easily one of my favourite MOCs ever, it's so swooshable and fun.

Comments welcomed.

This is awesome! Maybe you could add an Octan tank behind the cockpit, to make it like a light transport.

So Octan is, in lego terms, one of those future big-industrialists with own armys? Now THATS creepy!

Anyway, nice build!

NIce classic space inspired build there 'J4ke' - a fuel company with it's own defence force - yeah, I would worry too !

I'm a conformist! 'J4ke' I'm a conformist! !

Sounds like Shinra...

Nice MOC, love the colourscheme and stylings. I second the tanker suggestion, it would look nifty as a light transport or a fighter.

Well, of course they're evil, they're supported by the skull twins.

Very nice, love the classic look

I like that you used Octan, to me it gives the same vibe as some evil future megacorporation going for interstellar domination.

Thanks for all your comments, folks! I intend to modifiy it later today, so it can be a carrier, as opposed to a fighter.

Also, I don't know where you all got the idea of "evil megacorporation"... OCTAN is the only fuel company I've ever had affection for, even if it is fictional. As far as I'm concerned, and this is my theme, they're a benevolent megacorporation. It's the space pirates that try to steeal the fuel who are the evil ones. Or something like that.

And the Skull twins wear racing suits/jumpsuits with the Octan logo, so do many many other racing drivers/pilots across the galaxy. Coinicidence. :P

I automatically say evil, cause it looks like a perfect example of the longstanding trope of the evil megacorporation in science fiction. Like weyland-yutani or Umbrella. Anyway, I like that you use Octan in your build.

What does Octan even mean or stand for?

Ah, yes, but I'm sure Octan wouldn't sell black space outfits with evil stripes on them to the public. Does anyone wish Octan had its own theme?

Black never goes out of fashion. Octan knows that. :P

Anyway, for those of you who wanted a carrier, I made it so. LINK!

Reminds me of the Mega-Corps in Shadowrun
