Thanks for the compliments Bob De Quatre! Your LDD MOC's are trully amazing and awe-inspiring! I need to become more familiar with the software. Yes, the pilot does have a difficult time seeing what's directly in front of him. It's the one downfall of the 7647 design. I so wanted to lower the cockpit just a layer or two so the pilot could sit more upright, but this proved very difficult since the wings need to fold in and under the cockpit area to chance into ground assault mode.

Here comes the Green Team's ultimate weapons platform, the Bug Zapper. This vehicle can unleash a load of firepower on the Alien Insectoids from the air or ground with the ability to switch being jet flyer and ground assault modes. Once in ground assault mode with the wings folded in and the fuselage retracted, the 6 main engines serve a dual purpose and give the Bug Zapper limited ground mobility. An extra feature of ground assault mode is the ability for the Green Team Speeder Bike to connect using a landing post mounted high on the rear portion of the fuselage essentially turning the Bug Zapper into a battle tank with 360 degrees of protection. This creation was derived using the retired Mars Mission set 7647 MX-41 Switch Fighter as a starting point. I really like this set since it has a converting function which fits in well with all the Galaxy Squad Team vehicles. I added lots of Galaxy Squad styling elements, got rid of all the Mars Mission orange bricks and added just the right amount of dark and bright green bricks to make my creation fit right in with the other Green Team vehicles. Hope you like it!

Really cool! I might have to copy this! Great job!

Thanks TNT apples! I'm glad you liked it so much!

After seeing the old Exo-Force 7706 Mobile Defense Tank set and really liking it, I thought it would be fun to turn one into an Orange Team battle tank. Check out some of the pictures below for my end result. I eliminated most of the Exo-Force styling elements and added a lot of white parts, clear windscreen, Galaxy Squad stickers and other Galaxy Squad design features from the other Orange Team sets. I'm calling the final result the Insect Annihilator which goes along nicely with other Orange Team sets; Bug Obliterator and CLS-89 Eradicator. And in trying to keep with "dual purpose" nature of most of the Galaxy Squad Team sets, I also added a docking post feature so the Galaxy Jet portion of the CLS-89 Eradictor can also be attached to and transported by the Insect Annihilator.
