Well, I know what I'm saving up for now.

They did this a while back. I have a giant model of the Shuttle Orbiter (sans ET and SRBs) and Hubble, and a tiny one of the ISS back before they installed the main truss.

They should definitely have one of these on the ISS if it doesn't take up too much space. Then they can play spaceman...IN REAL SPACE! :lol:

EDIT: Pictures! (Poor quality due to my crappy laptop webcam.)

That shuttle is exatly the same a my brothers!:thumbup:

Anyone remember a while ago I posted a pics of a custom Lego ISS I made? it had removable modules, a dockable shuttle, and everything. Only flaw was that the thing was so big it pretty much fell apart if you looked at it the wrong way. I think I have some pics on Photobucket.
Ah, here's some from when it was still WIP

The arm was my favorite, it was so much fun to use.

Sorry for the big bump, but

This is relevant to my, and everyone else's interests.

Looks like I also have the LEGO shuttle that Izack has. I stopped construction after a crash because a part of the left wing leading edge missed . http://www.axmpaperspacescalemodels.com/

Ironic, considering a crash resulting from a hole in the left wing leading edge of a real shuttle brought the whole real program to wind down...

Surprised no one has posted photos.

More and Hi res here.

In the kitchen - "You are GO for lunch!" :dry:

Ha ha ha ha ha.

I really ought to get this shuttle.

 

[Pilot7893]

It's a shame the positioning of the attachment pins don't let me put the shuttle on upside down, because you know I would take a picture of that.

 

[Izack]

But it's Lego, man! You can do anything to it! :lol:

I read until this part:
"The set includes 1,200 pieces, costs 100 USD"
Gahhhh! Why isn't it cheaper? I got a 1,100 piece set for 70 USD at Toys R Us!

Actually that is a good price.
This includes many one off parts and some parts that I know are very rarely produced. You might think 100 is a lot, but I had to pay $200 AUD for mine.

Adding to my last post

A small modication to the ET would make that work ok.

About to attach all of the main components, if I only had a Lego Vehicle Assembly Building to attach them )

And attached

I believe TL8 also has one of these kits. I forget where the pictures of that one are, but I know he took some. This is epic lego win, in my book.

This is epic lego win, in my book.

To the tune of 100$ US... >.>
