Solscud007 Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 (edited) So some one you saw that I copied the SDCC Mini Dropship. Well the real set came with a mini Brickmaster AT-TE. While great I want a mini AT-OT to complete the Mini Dropship. Here is my attempt. I made the cockpit fold up just like the real AT-OT and with a folding ramp. I used a modified clip plate to snap onto the bar that hangs below the Dropship. Here it is with the dropship attached Here is the AT-OT in comparison with the AT-TE The LDD version can be found in my Brickshelf. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=467614 Comments and suggestions welcome. Im thinking of switching the hinges of the fold out ramp so that it folds more flat. Edited March 30, 2011 by Solscud007 Quote
Brickdoctor Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Pretty good job, Solscud. Isn't there an official TLG version of this, too? I remember that the AT-TE was a Brickmaster thing, and there was a different walker packaged with the LAAT/c in the SDCC set. Quote

I remember that the AT-TE was a Brickmaster thing, and there was a different walker packaged with the LAAT/c in the SDCC set. Nope. From my research, the SDCC set came with a sealed Brickmaster AT-TE polybag inside with the dropship. AFAIK there is not an official TLG Mini AT-OT. Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Very nice attempt at designing a mini AT-OT Solscud, it fits with the official Dropship pretty well. Nope. From my research, the SDCC set came with a sealed Brickmaster AT-TE polybag inside with the dropship. AFAIK there is not an official TLG Mini AT-OT. I agree, as far as I can remember the Brickmaster dropship was coupled with the AT-TE. Though I'm not sure if there is an official mini AT-OT, as I maybe just confusing it with the several MOCs I've seen (like Doc's). Quote

Though I'm not sure if there is an official mini AT-OT, as I maybe just confusing it with the several MOCs I've seen (like Doc's). I stand corrected. I do remember there was someone who did a very nice AT-OT that looked like it should fit right in with the set. I'm going to see if I can find it...EDIT: Found it. Not as much functionality as Solscud's, though. Edited March 30, 2011 by Brickdoctor Quote

lightningtiger Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Great LDD creation of a mini scale troop carrier 'Solscud007', going to brick-build one of these are we ? May the brick be with you ! Quote

You know it!!! I spent the majority of yesterday making a spread sheet of all the pieces I will need for: 1x Dropship, 2x Brickmaster Republic Gunships, 1x AT-TE and 1x old Republic Gunship. Then I was researching how much the average cost per piece would be on Bricklink and seeing if the cost would be less than buying the sets. Obviously not including the $300+ Dropship exclusive set. I estimate it is close to if not a little over just $20 USD for those 5 sets. Now I need to piece out the AT-OT and add it to the list. Quote

Nice planning, I do the same Excel thing when planning my BL parts purchases. Looking forward to the brickbuilt versions of these minis then. Quote
J4ke Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Cool, but the feet are too big. Also, you're using ninjago skeleton feet for the ankle hinges, don't know if that's intentional or not. They only come in white/black bottoms though. Quote

They only come in white/black bottoms though. Thanks. I like the big feet. That way I can use the smaller dish as decoration for the leg joints. I like the look of the skeleton feet but did not know it only comes in White and black untill I checked on BL earlier this morning. Quote
