Sir Brickalot Posted January 8, 2014 Posted January 8, 2014 (edited) https://www.flickr.c...yer/d0892aac83" This is my LDD MOC inspired by the new lego movie sets like the Trash Chomper. It is meant to be a tractor converted into a flying machine. https://www.flickr.c...yer/313800eedc" Minifigs from left to right: Farmhand Fred, Billy Barnyard, and Charlie Ice-eater. https://www.flickr.c...yer/585382a54d" And the Micro Manager, adorable! The tractor's functions are haystack bombs, flick fire brooms and looking awesome C&C Welcome. Thanks for reading! Edited January 8, 2014 by Sir Brickalot Quote
Kaijumeister Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 I'm liking what I see! You've managed to adhere to the movie's core concept of using creativity and imagination in order to fully "transform" every-day vehicles into something else entirely, I'm loving the futuristic look of the jet, and the fact that it's made from a tractor is even better! The way you've done the cockpits is great, I'm assuming the back one is for a gunner right? The Micro-Manager looks adorably chibi yet has a sense of menace just like how the movie-line's ones have, though a minor improvement would be to add more articulation to the arms. All in all, great job dude! Do you plan on making the tractor as well? Quote
Sir Brickalot Posted January 9, 2014 Author Posted January 9, 2014 Thanks! Yes, that cockpit would be for a gunner. I'm gonna have a crack at a tractor soon! Quote
TheLazyChicken Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 Not bad... Would you mind if you could post a photo of it turning into a real vehicle? (If you can) Thanks. Anyways, I wouldv'e liked for Lego to turn this into a set with some of their own modifications. Keep up the great work! Quote
Sir Brickalot Posted January 10, 2014 Author Posted January 10, 2014 Working on the tractor now! Quote
Infernum Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Nice MOC! Looks like it could be an official set! Quote
Only Sinner Posted January 12, 2014 Posted January 12, 2014 I really like this "Haystack Attack" and I hope you build it IRL. Quote
Sir Brickalot Posted January 13, 2014 Author Posted January 13, 2014 (edited) I'm probably not going to build it IRL as I built it in LDD extended, so some of the bricks aren't available in that colour. Plus I don't really have the time or bricks. Anyway, Here's the tractor b model! http://www.flickr.co...04/11933266974/ Some harvesting device on the back of the tractor: http://www.flickr.co...04/11933349534/ And the extras: http://www.flickr.co...in/photostream/ It was quite hard designing this, that must be my third attempt Edited January 13, 2014 by Sir Brickalot Quote
Sir Brickalot Posted January 14, 2014 Author Posted January 14, 2014 (edited) EDIT: whoops, already posted the b model. Anyone like it? Edited January 14, 2014 by Sir Brickalot Quote

Kaijumeister Posted January 16, 2014 Posted January 16, 2014 You've done a great job using the pieces from the jet alternative model, a solid effort and model overall, so well done! I especially like the way you did the front of the tractor. Quote
Sir Brickalot Posted January 17, 2014 Author Posted January 17, 2014 (edited) Thanks dude! Funny, I really don't like the front! I pity the Lego designers that create b models Edited January 17, 2014 by Sir Brickalot Quote
