kevin8 Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 Hi to all, today I'm back with a new creation. It is based on an old Moc I found on Mocpages some years ago. I would like to share this with its creator, but I haven't find any way to contact him. Anyway, this is the link to the original one http://www.moc-pages.com/moc.php/323231 . More than a year ago, I found I could buy the instructions on rebrickable, but it was evidently a Moc derived from the original one. Unluckily it was very poor in details and the proportions were not so good. So I looked for more sources and I discovered there were 2 different A-team Vans with many interiors. I focused on the GMC Van of the '87 and made the one with the equipment for recordings. I tried to fit all the details I could and at last, despite a little parts, the Moc is original. https://www.flickr.com/photos/kevin8/albums/72157666727391518 Quote
dikkie klijn Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 I love it when a plan comes together! I like how you gave the model your own twist, personally I prefer these blocked stripes over the original! Quote
deraven Posted March 14, 2018 Posted March 14, 2018 That is spectacular! So many great details, inside and out! Very nice exterior shaping all-around, and that built-in reel-to-reel is lovely. Quote
lcvisser Posted March 16, 2018 Posted March 16, 2018 Super cool! I loved this show as a kid and still watch re-runs occasionally. Very well executed! Quote
kevin8 Posted March 20, 2018 Author Posted March 20, 2018 Thanks, even for the front page! Thanks to everyone. Quote
judegreer Posted March 20, 2018 Posted March 20, 2018 That's really fantastic - great job! Do you have any plans on selling the building instructions, or possibly providing the lxf/ldr file? My wife is a big A-Team fan and would probably get a kick out of this as a gift. Quote
LegoModularFan Posted March 20, 2018 Posted March 20, 2018 (edited) Great model @kevin8! Really happy to see you MOCing again! Looks very close to the real thing! My favorite parts are the front doors and the wipers. Pity about the “pixelated” stripes though when looked closely, I know that it’s almost impossible to do better. However, they look really good from some distance! I’m not sure if/how it would work but did you try this awesome technique by @Asper? And any modulars coming? Any corner buildings? 20 minutes ago, judegreer said: Do you have any plans on selling the building instructions, or possibly providing the lxf/ldr file?

Instructions It’s awesome that he’s selling instructions for this great model, isn’t it? I know that technique. Unluckily I cannot apply to this moc. I do not use a technique that is not neat even inside. In this case I had to be sure that the inside was clean enough. Modulars are going to come when I will have the space for them. ;) Quote

Yes, I'm very happy to see that the instructions are for sale. I loveall LEGO, but especially large, show-type pieces, and this fits the bill perfectly. My wife will love being able to look at it next to her desk. In fact, she might even want to take a crack at building it herself. Maybe I'll be witness to that most rare of phenomenons - the birth of an AFOL! Quote
sdrnet Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 Beautiful Kevin model! It makes me go back many years when I followed the super adventures of the famous A-Team! Top Quote
Lakop Posted March 21, 2018 Posted March 21, 2018 The iconic A-Team van very well executed! Great work. Would love to see a KITT from knight rider. H Quote
eric trax Posted March 31, 2018 Posted March 31, 2018 A very interesting technique of car body construction. The model is not big but has many details. I am a fan of team A, so I am even more impressed! :D Quote
LegoManiac81 Posted April 21, 2018 Posted April 21, 2018 Are there instructions for this version? Quote
Philosopher7 Posted April 28, 2018 Posted April 28, 2018 Super feat of design. The interior detail is especially impressive. Well done indeed! Quote
