[MOC] Time Cruisers - Mystic Mountain Time Lab

Recommended Posts

Hi everyone,

I haven't been active here for a while, so I thought it was time for a new post :classic:

Today I would like to show you one of my MOCs that I built a few months ago. I know Time Cruisers has never really been a very popular theme, but I like the idea and thought I could improve upon the official sets...

So here it is... Dr. Cyber's infamous Mystic Mountain Time Lab!

"Welcome to my lab!"

Entering the lab, you find yourself in a small room, with a staircase and some closets, which is mostly used for storing various headgears from different eras (and yes, there is some money lying around, since Dr. Cyber is a crazy scientist, it has to be a bit messy :laugh:)

Passing through the swinging white door leads us to the heart of the building - the actual lab/workshop!

While Dr. Cyber is doing some programming for his next time travel, Tim is working on a new engine for the Hypno Cruiser.

There's a white door leading from the workshop out to the small dock in front of the house.

The tiny house with red window is, just like in the original set, a time machine of its own. The yellow hose is the power supply and can be unplugged, once the machine is done loading.

Although in this case the house doesn't fly, but swim!

Let's go back into the main building. Walking up the black stairs we saw in the first room leads us to the first floor. Up there is a couch for Tim and Ali to chill (or in Ali's case have a nap :laugh:) and Dr. Cyber's desk with some nice outlook.

The roof above the workshop can be reached by the brown revolving door on the opposite site of the couch.

Here we'll find a telescope and some computers connected to the antenna, where Robbi the Robot is working. The trans-neon green cone turns the telescope by using gears.

On the roof above the first floor is a satellite dish, on which Ali likes to climb around on :monkey:

That's it for the lab - here are some overview pictures:

Oh no, Ali has stolen Tim's cap!

I also built a heavily modified version of the Hypno Cruiser. Dr. Cyber parks it next to the lab.

Tim also hops on board. Unfortunately I don't own the windscreen parts (6070), so I had to use to seperate trans-light blue panels.

The back of the vehicle has a trunk, where items and equipment can be stored...

...or Ali can sleep in there :laugh:

The Hypno Cruiser and the lab together:

Hope you like it - feedback is always welcome!

Trunk monkey! Overall, it fits with the Time Cruisers theme, but I think the lab exterior could use a bit more zany. Besides the trans-neon orange window and big telescope, nothing is really out of place. The modded Hypno Cruiser is perfect. Right mix of zany with functional.

Thanks for your feedback!

You're right, especially the side of the house where the red entrance door is located looks very normal and not zany enough. Right now I don't really have an idea how to fix it without taking most of it apart - but I'll think about it :laugh:

Glad you like the Hypno Cruiser!
