manglegrat Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) It was the dawn of the third age of mankind – ten years after the Earth-Minbari War. The Babylon Project was a dream, given form. Its goal: to prevent another war, by creating a place where humans and aliens can work out their differences peacefully. It's a port of call – home away from home – for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs, and wanderers. Humans and aliens, wrapped in two million, five hundred thousand tons of spinning metal . . . all alone in the night. Hi, all. You may have seen my earlier WIP thread where I said I wouldn't do this, but I was persuaded to change my mind. I have finally completed the instructions for my MOC tribute to Babylon 5. They've been proof read, improved and tested out several times (oy!), and you can now purchase them through Rebrickable here. If you have the space for a UCS Star Destroyer, you have the space for this - there's no excuse not to, really...

Like most of the oversized MOCs out there, I'm afraid it will probably cost lots of $$$s to collect the parts if you don't have a big stockpile already... Sorry about that!

Captain_Quinn Posted October 31, 2020 Seriously cool. Always enjoy your designs, and so glad to see them come to life. I'll definitely be building one of these for display at home :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
