Posted September 7, 20159 yr These are some of the crafts my 8yr old son and I have been knocking around with since a rather ecclectic box of lego was passed down to us and added to his rapidly burgeoning fleet of ships. I know they're probably not up to the usual high standard which we've seen here but....what the heck!!!!

Edited September 8, 20159 yr by easytiger Images too big. Please resize bfore deep-linking again.
September 8, 20159 yr Looks like you and your son are having a lot of fun! Nice fleet you built here; my favourites are the base for its playability (I would have dreamt of having one like this as a 8 y.o. child!), the blue walker and the Interceptor. Keep it up and enjoy
September 8, 20159 yr Why do I get the felling that some of this stuff comes out of the "Star Wars" universe.
September 8, 20159 yr Hi easytiger, and welcome to EB. You have some great models there, but your pictures are not complying to our Site Guidelines. Please resize them (you can find a link on how to do it via Flickr in the Tutorials' section; look in my signature) and then deep-link again. Thanks.
September 8, 20159 yr Author Ok sorry, can do (first time on flickr!!) and cheers! The base has got a Sentry droid, trap door, sectret armoury , tele-porter, subterranian disco and orgasmatron!!... all very play-able (well except 'The Sleeper' reff!!) I have to say that in 1977 I was 8years old myself and I've been a huge fan ever since the opening credits!!! hope that's better!! Edited September 8, 20159 yr by easytiger
September 9, 20159 yr Very nice indeed (I see that you probably built you tower with whatever was there giving it somewhat post-apocaliptic look, just like I did when I was a kid...oh, sweet memories ) and some of your models are really original in design, I like it!

September 9, 20159 yr Author I'd be fascinated to know from which kits, a myriad of the pieces came from!!! and cheers, glad you like em!! Edited September 9, 20159 yr by easytiger
September 12, 20159 yr That tower looks super-fun, and the red and yellow ships are sweet. Nice building.
September 13, 20159 yr The robot dog made out of technic piston pieces is great. Seconding this, any chance for another photo or two? I want one like it. Nice builds, overall, my favorites would be the complicated-looking dropship and yellow/orange walker. The tower's also great.
September 14, 20159 yr Author Made a couple of tweaks to the snapper!! DSCN6431 by sleasytiger, en Flickr DSCN6426 by sleasytiger, en Flickr DSCN6419 by sleasytiger, en Flickr Gotta say...It's great fun to play with!!
September 15, 20159 yr Author This is what happened when our mechanic got his hands on an old beat-up A-wing and set about tuning her up a tad.... DSCN6324 by sleasytiger, en Flickr Edited September 16, 20159 yr by easytiger
September 16, 20159 yr Author The old Dropship's been in the body-shop as well.....bit more streamlined and she's got herself some teeth (purely defensive....of course!!) DSCN6434 by sleasytiger, en Flickr DSCN6433 by sleasytiger, en Flickr DSCN6432 by sleasytiger, en Flickr
September 17, 20159 yr I like these improvements! Nice A-Wing. And thanks for the robot closeups, off to Bricklink I go. As if I weren't broke enough.
September 26, 20159 yr Author & a mech-bot.... DSCN6508 by sleasytiger, en Flickr DSCN6506 by sleasytiger, en Flickr We've been burning the mid-night oil!!! Oh and cheers for all the replies!!! Edited September 28, 20159 yr by easytiger
