Cara Posted July 30, 2014 This is my build for "Friends in Space" contest on Rebrick. If you like it, please support it and 'Like' it here: http://rebrick.lego....ervatory/8vd1p5 The Friends' Moon Base Observatory The building hinges open and we see Mia is charting the night sky on observatory's telescope. Emma is just arriving through the airlock. She has two friends she made on a previous expedition excited to have her home. And Stephanie is busy examining rocks brought back by Emma. Her robotic dog keeps her company and reminds her that she needs to eat and drink as well as investigate. The ladder hinges up for easy access of the lab below and fits into its own space vertically for when the building is closed. The telescope dome opens and the telescope gantry rotates 360 degrees. Stephanie investigating in the lab with her robotic dog. Every hard-working gal needs a coffee machine. Emma is arriving home through the air lock. These two cute and cuddly creatures Emma found on a previous exploration. They have been waiting for her. Window seats contain the girl's lockers. Thank you! - Cara.

mikaelsol Posted July 30, 2014 By Crom this is awesome! I've been thinking about larger Friends sets. Do they always include a toilet? If so this so needs a space toilet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Captain Settle Posted July 30, 2014 LOVE it. Love the little space aliens. Where did you get those spherical eye balls? I believe the eyes are from Mixels sets. Great MOC by the way, the attention to detail is fantastic, like the coffee machine for example. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cara Posted July 30, 2014 LOVE it. Love the little space aliens. Where did you get those spherical eye balls? They are from my son's Mixels - poor little guys currently sitting blind on his bookshelf. Great MOC. What is the hinged dome from? The dome comes from Buzz Lightyear, its his visor. I had to contact LEGO Customer Support because one of the rules of the challenge is no licensed pieces, to check that it was generic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kristel Posted July 30, 2014 This is awesome - functional and stylish! My favourite details are the coffee machine, the furry critters and how the telescope can fully rotate. Good luck in the contest! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted August 1, 2014 Lovely Moc! The internal details are great and that little creature drive me crazy! ;-) I like the robot-dog too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cgarison Posted August 17, 2014 I like this MOC a lot. The main thing that catches my attention is that you capture the essence of a moon base without incorporating all the "space" standards that have been lingering around for more than a decade. Nice original work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
eliza Posted August 18, 2014 Well done... this is a challenging concept to pull off and your design feels very true to both Friends and Space. Good luck in the competition! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wodanis Posted August 19, 2014 Well done, a very original creation! Maybe lego would consider this as a set? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Legogal Posted August 19, 2014 Wow! A very creative approach to the space theme! The Friends gals look quite comfortable inside and definitely liven up the place. The aliens from the Mixel and Car Wash family are a total hoot! Hahaha! The details are just sumptuous! So much to see and do here...flat out wonderful. (I definitely would buy this set.) Congratulations on an extremely fine build! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
