This is a great looking model. Have seen it on @LegoModularFans inspirational mocs topic before and it's great to see the designer has resubmitted it to Ideas.

This one is also great. I'll be honest, until I saw this model I had never heard of Gravity Falls, maybe I need to watch more TV. But even though I've got no clue what it's about I still really like the model, it's amazing how fast this one is building up support.

Thank you guys for sharing it once more. I am also still amazed by the positive response, but of course it help that TV show creator Alex Hirsch tweeted about it and called stepping on a LEGO Mystery Shack a dream of his.

Well, that's aesthetically not the sort of spacecraft I'd personally envision for that CMF (looks more like Futurama's Planet Express rather than a traditional Raypunk rocketcraft); but hey, it is still pretty cool in terms of its well thought-out functionality and features. :thumbup: :smug:

@Digger of Bricks for a moment, when I first looked at this one I thought it was a model you'd designed yourself, when I saw the retro spaceman minfig in the corner of the photo. :laugh:

If this project both reaches the 10K threshold and in turn gets approved, would you hope for some Classic Spaceman in new outfit colors like the Exo-Suit's green ones? Or, you rather see some traditionally colored reissues instead? :classic:

I thought this project was worth mentioning. I think it looks beautiful and would make a great set. Also anything that ties in too Indiana Jones is a plus for me.

Well it shouldn't be white since that's been done recently. Definitely don't want more green for the same reason. For new colors, grey would be cool, or purple. Otherwise I like red.

What I really want is a remold of the classic space helmet. Like Benny's but no crack.

Personally, I'd kinda like to see some Classic Spacemen that matched the color scheme of their spacecraft. By that, I mean figures with Light Bluish Grey Classic Space torsos (like that of the S17 Rocket Suit Boy), dual-molded Light Bluish Grey legs with Bright Blue boots, upper arms printed also with Classic Space badges (like that on the S15 Astronaut's upper right arm), Bright Blue hands, and finally, Bright Blue "Racer" helmets with Trans-Yellow visors to match their spacecraft's canopies. :shrug_oh_well:

That would be really cool. I'd settle for what you said even without the dual molding. Space Police 1 was the first Space theme that really mixed colors on figures (black & white) and it looked really cool with the red visor. But they didn't match their spaceships.

I kinda think Lego always tried to have the minifigs stand out and therefore didn't have the same colors as their sets. Although that was not the case for Blacktron.

Hmmm...Yeah I might have to try something today and report back.

Which can be most easily achieved if one has the S17 Rocket Suit Boy. :wink: Still, proper dual-molded legs would help complete such a spaceman's look quite nicely.

Oh, also, two other options for new/reinvented Classic Spacemen would be for a Dark Bluish Grey variant, and the other could be traditionally colored spacemen with contrasting darker hues for their hands, helmets, and airtanks. For instance, regarding that latter idea, a reinvented Bright Blue spaceman figure would have an Earth Blue helmet, hands, airtanks, and even dual-molded Bright Blue legs with Earth Blue boots to contrast its Bright Blue torso and arms. Respectively, you can imagine how Bright Red and Yellow spacemen figures would be done.

Ah, I'll be most looking forwards to the results! :sweet:

Well it turns out I do own a trans-yellow visor but it's with my Space Pirate CMF which is...somewhere in my house but not with the rest of my Lego. I probably won't find it very soon so until that happens I give you this:

I want to see it the other way too, with a gray air tank and blue torso etc. And with the actual yellow visor. Maybe I can piece that out if I get my butt in gear.

- While I personally would've given him LBG arms and Bright Blue hands instead, I do sorta dig his Futuron-esque appearance and style. :thumbup: :classic:

- Here's an example of such I remembered from someone else, but with a substitute for the airtanks:
