LegoMathijs Posted September 16, 2023 Terra Station Z is a space station which be used for researching ores. Inside the Ore Research Centre, there are several research devices and robotic devices for splitting ores. Theres also an motorized conveyor belt for transporting the ores inside the station. Theres also a communication centre, for communication with spaceships and controlling/monitoring drones. This was a part of our Lowlug community Neo Classic Space layout. 01_Terra_Station_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 02_Terra_Station_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 08_Terra_Station_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 11_Terra_Station_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 13_Terra_Station_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 14_Terra_Station_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr Pictures also on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/mathijslegofan/albums/72177720311251724/with/53191969795/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GeoBrick Posted September 16, 2023 It is beautifully made, and with a lot of functionality. Although I have my doubts about those floating elevator platforms. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Feuer Zug Posted September 18, 2023 Gorgeous station. You nailed the Futuron scheme and feel perfectly, yet built a large setup that is quite impressive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danth Posted September 18, 2023 Big, angular, trans-blue windows for the win. They sure make this feel like Futuron. I especially like the building with the six matching blue windows arranged into three vertical columns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LegoMathijs Posted September 21, 2023 Thanks all for the nice compliments! Nice to hear you like it New update: This small spaceshi, the Terra Transporter Z, is used to transport ores and mining equipment to the mining site and Terra Station Z. The spaceship have a small crane to load the containers. The middle section of the ship can be disconnected if there's no container to transport. The middle section needs to be disconnected to load a container with the Terra Mining Unit Z. 01_Terra_Transporter_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 03_Terra_Transporter_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 04_Terra_Transporter_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr Loading a container: 06_Terra_Mining_Unit_Z_and_Terra_Transporter_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr Pictures also on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/mathijslegofan/albums/72177720311251724 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GeoBrick Posted September 22, 2023 Just wondering, do you plan to show this MOC on some event(s) the next year or so in the Benelux? Would love to see it for real. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LegoMathijs Posted September 23, 2023 (edited) Thanks! :) No, I've taken apart this MOC. I've built this MOC last year as a part of our community built. The whole layout was on display at Bricks am Meer in Bad Zwischenahn, Germany. And a few weeks ago, it was on display at our LUG event.

LegoMathijs Posted September 24, 2023 Terra Mining Unit Z The Terra Mining Unit Z is a large mining vehicle for using in rough terrain. This vehicle can carry heavier loads than other rovers, because of it's mining equipment and the possibility to carry a container. It can also mine in rough terrain. It has a working suspension, adjustable cabin, mining drill, small mining tools at front of the vehicle, container lift, two stabilizers, and a foldable crane with adjustable jib. The Terra Mining Unit Z can use the container lift for loading and unloading the Terra Transporter Z. 01_Terra_Mining_Unit_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 02_Terra_Mining_Unit_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 04_Terra_Mining_Unit_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr 05_Terra_Mining_Unit_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr Overview functions: 15_Terra_Mining_Unit_Z by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr More pictures on Flickr: http:// https://www.flickr.com/photos/mathijslegofan/albums/72177720311251724 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LegoMathijs Posted September 24, 2023 The last picture of this MOC.... The Research Drone will be used for exploring the planet's ores. The speeder will be used for travelling around the mining site. 20_Research_Drone_and_speeder by Mathijs Bongers, on Flickr Picture also on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/mathijslegofan/albums/72177720311251724 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Space78 Posted October 11, 2023 Wow, beautiful stuff. I'm a big fan of Classic Space, but the Futuron theme is very appealing too. With what appears to be the large success of 10497 Galaxy Explorer, one wonders if Lego will bring out another iconic space set, and if so will it be a Futuron set? I'm sure the monorail is too much to hope for, but I'm sure there are great sets to "re-imagine", or new creations like this one based on the Futuron theme. We can only hope!
