6877 M:TRON Firefly is my second documented alternate build of the 6877 Vector Detector from 1990. This sleek ship features angled wings, opening cockpit and magnetic holder with a container. The model utilizes 100% of the available parts of the set. Space Frog is my very first alternate build of the LEGO 6884 Aero Module and utilizes 100% of the available parts.

Thank you, gentlemen. Even with how much is exposed on the real car, it was constant panel swapping to get as close to the curves of the vehicle as possible. At the end I had to rebuild several sections just to get some connectors since I ran out of available parts.- 761 replies

Red Bull RB17 Hypercar is my first alternate build of the 42206 that I designed for this year. It uses only the parts of the RB20 F1 LEGO set. I originally wanted to design a generic Le Mans car, but then stumbled upon news that the RB 17 is going to start production in 2025 and what a better fit than a Red Bull Hypercar from a Red Bull F1? The model is 57cm long, 23.5cm wide and 12 cm high. The features include: Front pull rod suspension Rear push rod suspension Front axle steering with working steering wheel and HOG input Working V6 engine 2-speed gearbox with neutral Opening gull-wing doors Moving rear spoiler wing Detailed cockpit and bodywork with intricate angles.- 761 replies

The Blacktron Triceratops is a 47cm long dinosaur that packs more than you would anticipate at first glance. It is built using only the parts of the 10355 Blacktron Renegade. The Triceratops has a moving head with opening mouth. You can detach the two Blacktron logo flyers from the sides of the hind legs. On the back you can find a lightsaber and a mineral detector. The detachable thruster with foldable wings can be added to the command module to form even bigger spaceship or it works on it own as well. The cockpit of the command module opens and the wings can be angled. The Robot is hidden right below the nose of the command module and can be removed to help the crew. By lowering the ramp, you can deploy the mini Battrax with articulated steering, opening cockpit and foldable rear wings. The artillery has a 360°rotating platform with dual guns that can be angled and the same goes for the targeting radar.

6891 Orca is a spaceship/submersible that can fit the minifigure into the opening cockpit, has poseable pectoral fins, tool storage behind the canopy and a detachable robo flyer. Creating an alternate from this set proved to be more difficult than anticipated due to some large parts with limited useability. Have fun and happy building!

Zebra is my first alternate build (uses only the parts of the set) of the 42198 Bush Plane. The model is an automata sculpture that can be easily motorized or hung on the wall. The head moves up and down, the neck moves back and forth and so do the shoulders and knees of the zebra. Inside its chest you can find a 4-cylinder beating heart.- 761 replies

I totally forgot to post these two. The Dropship is my 35th alternate build of the LEGO Technic Race Plane 42117 that I designed. The Dropship can fold the wings and the tail for take off and landing in a synchronised manner. Happy Building! Christmas Tree with gifts is my 47th alternate build of the 42117 Race Plane. The Christmas Tree dances by moving the axle with the orange connector. The helicopter has a working rotor and the tail rotor spins as well. The tricycle has working steering. The Glider Plance and the Gifts are built from the leftovers. Hope you like it. Happy Building!- 761 replies
