Alcom Isst Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Alcom's thought Process: Contest... LEGO Racers... Racers... Something with wheels... wheels... something big with turrets and 3 wheels... OH! I KNOW! And 3 hours later, this thing was complete. Somehow this sneaky little creation managed to crawl its way into my Hydro City theme. I like white sets though... they're so bright and shiny, and my MOCs end up the same. http://www.brickshel...ry.cgi?f=504907 http://www.brickshel...ry.cgi?f=506182 http://www.brickshel...ry.cgi?f=490890 Brickshelf page for this model is now public. http://www.brickshel...ry.cgi?f=507775 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apemax Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Very nice design Alcom1. I like the design of the turrets. :) Alcom Isst 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cirevam Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Oh wad, it could be a Life on Mars/Mars Mission boss racer. And with multiple turrets it could be effective against multiple opponents. It's also very clean-looking -- I like that. STUDZ and Alcom Isst 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyrem Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Quickly! Hide it before NASA steals your design! I really like this design and the use of colours (although that seat sort of stands out). I could easily see this as an actual set for a LEGO space theme. Alcom Isst 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCHover Posted July 14, 2012 Share Posted July 14, 2012 Wow! That is really a nice vehicle. I like how you have set up the back wheel, despite the size of it, it kind of 'blends in' with the rest of the vehicle. Looks great! Alcom Isst 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWNZOR Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Very nice looking racer! And also, holy mother of bricks, that LU property is freaking amazing. Alcom Isst 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McJobless Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 It's great but I have one problem. The driver looks like he's pretty vulnerable with no front side protection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alcom Isst Posted July 16, 2012 Author Share Posted July 16, 2012 It's great but I have one problem. The driver looks like he's pretty vulnerable with no front side protection. He's as protected as 5/6ths of the racers in LEGO Racers 1, a game full of... actually now that I think about it, the weapons in that game aren't really potent. It takes 3 rockets to disable a kart for a few seconds in that game, and no matter what weapons are used, the racers always come out fine. A few places more behind perhaps, but still fine.

le717 Posted July 24, 2012 Share Posted July 24, 2012 Very clean, very white, very bright. Ow! The cleanliness! It blinds! :P Alcom Isst 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lair Posted July 25, 2012 Share Posted July 25, 2012 It looks like a combination of the LoM astro's vehicles and Martian mech tech. The only downside is how exposed the driver is. The first time I saw the title I thought something sonic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first time I saw the title I thought something sonic. We at the Hydro City liquid processing plant, would like to assure you that our drivers have been treated with a saline solution that makes them nigh impervious, and immune to all race related injuries.

STUDZ Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Wow. Just, wow. This MOC is very much LoM (Which was in LR2). I love the overall look of this model, even if the driver's seat kind of sticks out. In fact, this could have been a great replacement for the boss racer in LR2 Mars. If I didn't miss the deadline, you would have got my vote for this one. Great job. Alcom Isst 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
