Oky Posted August 12, 2023 On the desert outskirts of the city where Johnny Thunder lives, there is an old airstrip where Johnny's old friend Harry Cane lives. In his little rundown hangar, the ace pilot maintains his biplane and prepares for the gang's next adventure. The old tin roof has patches of rust on it. The doors can be opened and closed as seen in this animation. On one side of the hangar there is a pile of crates, Harry's motorcycle, and a palm tree. On the other side of the hangar there is an old power generator. The steam powered generator chugs along, providing electricity to the building. Let's take a closer look inside the hangar. The roof can easily be removed to access the interior. This is where Harry's office desk is located. It is cluttered with a radio, maps, bills, booze, and navigation equipment. Next to it is a filing cabinet with a fan and a little easter egg. There's also a pile of cargo crates with adventuring gear, a brass fire extinguisher (the old kind which has a little rubber hose dangling from the top and which you simply tilt upside down to use), and a wall telephone. On this side there is a pinboard with a picture of Harry's friends Johnny Thunder and Dr. Kilroy, and various maps, including ones from the 2 previous adventures that Harry accompanied Johnny on. There is also Harry's workbench and tanks of oil and gas. Here is a closer look at Harry's biplane which he used during the war. The rudder can be adjusted. A small car that Harry uses to get to and from the hangar. It is designed in the style of the little impulse sets and polybags that were common for the Adventurers theme. It has a small baggage area in the back and the classic license plate with his initials. I hope you like this entry. I will leave you with a photo of Harry in front of his plane.

Yatkuu Posted August 14, 2023 Brilliant entry! Clever use of the roller coaster tracks! 👍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mrcp6d Posted August 16, 2023 "Brilliant" is definitely a good word to describe the engine construction! Proportions and shaping of the airplane look perfect for a WWI craft to me, and I really like the "logo" you've crafted above the hanger door. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fraunces Posted August 18, 2023 Might be the best or one of the best entries I have seen tonight. Wondeful. The plain is great but the hanger makes it 5x as nice, could be the first setting in a LEGO adventures game! The little car is a nice touch . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ImBrickingIt Posted September 20, 2023 Great build. Any chance the plane is based off the 10226 Sopwith Camel. https://www.lego.com/en-gb/product/sopwith-camel-10226 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LordsofMedieval Posted September 21, 2023 I don't think I've ever seen a hangar in Lego before, and this particular example is just ultra-charming. Great work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The builds were fairly basic by today’s standards, but they really captured the imagination. Thanks. 26 minutes ago, LordsofMedieval said: I don't think I've ever seen a hangar in Lego before, and this particular example is just ultra-charming. Great work! Yeah, I was surprised when I looked for some inspiration that not many seem to have been built before. There are some modern hangars, but none in this classic style. Glad you like it!

LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted September 30, 2023 Fantastic details and beautiful art! The compressor with the large wheel and the little car are gorgeous! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Roadmonkeytj Posted October 5, 2023 I would buy this set ... absolutely love it. There's so many small details like the jenny and the wind up phone. But you've tied the adventure theme in great with the wall panels. The plane screams Sopwith lol all in all well done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
