Masked Builder Posted February 29, 2012 Personally, I think that I had an awesome idea with this one. I was messing around with my minifigures trying to think of an entry when I thought that the Cheerleader's pom-poms would work wonderfully as the engines on a pod. This is pretty much what I had in mind when I imagined the pod. I'm not too sure I like how the cockpit turned out but it's not totally awful. And boy did those binders give me a headache. Suggestions are quite welcome! ---- Built February 2012 Flickr Set Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Benn Posted February 29, 2012 That's a fine pair of pom poms she's got there. They'll make her go far! Woka woka woka! Great MOC :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mortesv Posted February 29, 2012 While your idea is not without merit, may I remind you that pom-poms are not very aerodynamic and that they would most certainly catch fire when "turned on". Thus I cannot endorse this construction - it is simple too unrealistic and hazardous! In other words, I like it! Good job! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Masked Builder Posted March 1, 2012 Thanks everyone! Glad you like this one! While your idea is not without merit, may I remind you that pom-poms are not very aerodynamic and that they would most certainly catch fire when "turned on". Thus I cannot endorse this construction - it is simple too unrealistic and hazardous! In other words, I like it! Good job! I was reading this and was like: "what the heck is he talking about?!" Then I got to the bottom and just laughed. Dude, this is hilarious and very nicely built! it! Thanks Mood! Hopefully I'll win a contest for once. This is cool! I like the pom-poms and the handlebar. Nice entry. Thank you, lowell spheres are amazing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lightningtiger Posted March 1, 2012 Totally AWESOME 'Masked Builder' , I know how she wins....she flashes her vents at other pod-racers....she learn't that trick from Sebulba. I wonder what the butchers pod-racer would look like ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dharkan Posted March 3, 2012 That is brilliant, well done, your creativity is impressive. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Vindicare Posted March 3, 2012 Oh man, that butchers one is great! The meat grinder engines, no fossil fuel for him! Environmentally friendly. The binders are a bit strange, however. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Masked Builder Posted March 3, 2012 That is brilliant, well done, your creativity is impressive. Thanks. Oh man, that butchers one is great! The meat grinder engines, no fossil fuel for him! Environmentally friendly. The binders are a bit strange, however. Originally, he had a LEGO beam that went across and the pigs were hanging off that but it was illegal, so he had to take it off.
