Very nice. But I don't recognise those grey electricity pylon pieces on the front: Are they from hero factory or something?

These were used in several old tehcninc sets for the steering mechanism.

Fantastic MOC! I like the black rockets on the wings!

The steering wheel/exhausts on the side are pretty effective for greebling. The engine at the back seems quite detailed too.

[Bob De Quatre]

Really nice!

I' would love to see a rear view, the engines seems quite beautiful.

Really cool ship. The red colour is an excellent choice and it makes the ship stand out and loving the cannons on the wing.

Thank you all for your kind comments! I really appreciate them!

LOL, Yes indeed I actually not very good in naming sometimes... 'Rojolele' was the first name came across my mind since the color is red (rojo). You know bahasa? In Indonesia 'rojolele' literally means king catfish and also the name of one of rice variety.

The piece you mentioned is the old technic steering part, thank you Csacsa234 for explaining.

Nice looking ship. It is unusual to see a start ship like that in red, brings back memories of Spyrius from a long time ago in my late teens. Those engines look very big as well, similar to a pod racer but on a ship. The whole thing looks well designed to me, I like it.

Where is the best place to get LEGO in Indonesia? I've searched around most of the malls in Jakarta and it is so expensive over there compared to the UK. Last time I was there was during the SEA Games and we visited the display in the FX Mall which was nice to see. I wanted to buy a set for my nephew, we got him a smallish set which he really liked and now keeps asking for more real LEGO as the knock-offs they sell where he lives are not up to much.

Yes, LEGO retail price here is quite high, actually it is similar in south-east asia countries. You can get it also from local online sellers for 10-25% cheaper price, they usually open their shops through facebook pages.

Hope it helps.
