I tell people that that was my favorite set as a kid, and they make fun of me. Finally someone with some sense!

It's great on its own, but it blows my mind that you were able to build two of these. *smilies indicating good work*

That is a seriously amazing space ship, I'd give it my seal of approval if I had one.

Thanks you all for the good comments. There are many excellent builders on this forum (you know who you are) and I am flattered to receive such good feedback from them!

I think I'd pay real money to have the chance to fight one of them or the Sonks just to see how long I would last :mrgreen:

Pictures of the crew should be ready soon (and yes, they are blue ;))

Wow, this takes me back! This is a great piece of work, I especially like it with the engine room, it gives it a more stockier look...

Finally got to take some pictures of the crew! It is made of 25 minifig (1 medik is missing on this picture).
Image


The Captain of the Galaxy, Syd Niav with the Bridge Officer. The Bridge Officer is carrying a Pistol and a Portable Shield Generator (+2 armor). Syd is carrying is Bladed Assault Rifle.
Image


The pilots. Three of them works on the bridge (communications, navigation and weaponry). The fourth one is the Pilot of the Peregrine (the frigate usually carried by the Galaxy).
Image


Mediks, carrying their Portable Surgical Kit (PSK). Inspired by some ancient torture devices, the PSK include a laser trimmer, a work lamp and an injection tip with multiple drugs to quickly fix any injured unit.
Image


The three Mechaniks in charge of the Spacecraft are carrying either a Portable Computer to interface with other device or a Multitool. The Multitool include all the basics tools required for adjustments, maintenance or reparation of any mechanical device.
Image


The squad of guards wear heavy armor. In addition to the Scope, their Assault Rifle is mounted with a bayonet for close combat.
Image


The Troopers are the main combat units. Like the Guards, they wear heavy armor. They can mount a harpoon for increased damage or a scope on their Assault Rifle. They also carry a pipe bomb.
Image


The Demolition squad, armed with Machine Guns and Grenade Launcher. You can guess what their specialty is. They wear light armor because of the weight already added by the heavy weapons they are carrying.
Image


It is possible to add an additional squad of 5 Marines armed with rifles and bayonets when the hangar is not occupied by something else.

Those are some interesting rifle designs. Props for adding scopes. What are the hands supposed to represent?
