Great idea for a topic @SpacePolice89! Those are some cool old MOC's!

These next ones are not mine, but they are my Dad's MOCs from over 20 years ago... I don't have any pictures of mine that still exist.

This sand red factory was by my Dad around the years 2000 - 2004 with parts from several supplemental packs of that color available at that time. It does not feature any interior, nor does it have a removable roof. But this thing is built STRONG: you have to really put your weight on it to press the roof together.

rear view.

The bridge was built in the mid-to-late 1990's by my Dad and features the base-plate from set 6552 (Rocky Retreat) from 1993. The re-railers were added later down the center of the tacks.

This double track train shed was built by my father way before I had built my first LEGO system train. It was originally single track and used parts using quite a few copies of set 6380 (Emergency Treatment Center) from 1987. Around 2003, I rediscovered the model and he decided to add a second stall to the engine shed, which he did (using a rather new website called Bricklink) He even added brick built re-railers to in-between the rails.

Here is the rear of the shed, which can't fit any of my custom engines or large-N-long official trains like the Emerald Night. The biggest engine it can fit is the original 9v Crocodile loco (4551), which just barely makes it work.

At the time of this picture being taken in 2015, this vintage 2000 grain elevator was unfinished. It was then given to me in 2020 because he built a bigger, better one. I have since completed what he started with this MOC.

This old gray tunnel was built in the early 1990's by my dad. (I added the tan baseplate and RC tracks in 2022 when I received it from him as a present.) As with his shed, girder bridge, grain elevator, and factory, these were built without the aid of Bricklink as it didn't exist yet / he didn't know about it. I recently added a mountain around this tunnel.

Thanks! Your dad builds really good MOCs!

I can't remember when I made this. It was a long long time ago in the late 90s when we had our first digital camera in the family. I checked with my dad and he informed me that we had a PC (with digital camera) before 1999. So this has to be at least 26 years old.

@Peppermint_M: That pirate ship looks a lot like the first pirate ship my brother built out of basic blocks ca. 2002, and like the one I built (and then rebuilt in 2020):

Here are Studio reconstructions of a couple of starfighters my brother and I built when we were kids:

I built this alt out of my 7141 Naboo Fighter a few times:

And here's a starfighter I built in 2004 that I still have; it's mostly an alt of the old 7470 Space Shuttle Discovery:
