Posted May 4, 200816 yr I have an undying love for the Mega Core Magnetizer. Apparently this guy does too. Just Look! This guy made my day
May 4, 200816 yr Not only are they in different colours, they're in different Space colours. Blacktron I, Blacktron II, Classic Space, Futuron, Ice Planet and Space Police! Great find, Brickmaster! ~Peace
May 4, 200816 yr Very nice find indeed! I've seen Blacktron 1 and Futuron MCMs somewhere before but the rest is lovely too. I wondered how Ice Planet Magnetizer would look like and now I know. And the amount of giant wheels on the group photo...
May 4, 200816 yr WOW, that's an idea LEGO should consider in releasing. My favs are the Blacktron 1 and Ice Planet one.
May 4, 200816 yr And he even remembered to add theme specific things such as the containment containers for Space Police II. That's way too cool
May 4, 200816 yr yeah, it's pretty cool, pretty expensive too, considering some of those parts are quite rare. what i would prefer though is the magnatiser as a basis for the truck, but build with only the parts of a specific theme... quite a challenge, imo
July 5, 201014 yr I love these photos, glad I found them again. I only rebuilt my MCM the other day - such an epic set. Well done Lego. Someone ought to build the Spyrius & Unitron versions and add the photos. Explorien would simply be the same as Futuron but with trans neon green lights instead of trans red. Pity there is no trans red dome, I would love to see a Space Police I version. Recolours are awesome when they're done right! And I think all 6 of those are pretty good at the least. Ice Planet one needs more black and less blue. Futuron maybe a bit more black. Blacktron II more white, less black. Space Police II slightly more red, more black. 9/10 on a stingey day.

Why must you bump old threads why? On the other hand these are truly awesome! Too bad I never picked up the original...
July 5, 201014 yr I'm in awe... of how much money people spend on MOCs... these things must have cost a fortune!!! Anyway, they all look great. The Futuron version is my favorite though, white and trans. blue is the most space-like combination for me.
July 5, 201014 yr Wow, I actually remember these, the guy that did them had them all on display at Brickworld! it was truly a beautiful site.
July 5, 201014 yr I've seen that gallery before, but never looked at all the versions individually until you deeplinked them. Love how the Space Police II version used prison pods in place of M-Tron's magnetic parcels. Wish they all had that sort of uniqueness, although I admit Ice Planet, Blacktron, etc. didn't have any distinctive parcel-like builds that appeared in more than one set.
July 6, 201014 yr Well, all those vehicles remind me of the My Own Train series, where you could have one and the same steam engine in different colours. Anyway, it's a great brickshelf find, and it's a cool idea to use the parts of specific themes to build theme specific Mega Core Magnetizers.
July 7, 201014 yr Awesome find! Thanks for sharing, my favourites are the Ice Planet magnetizer and Blacktron II magnetizer, the colour schemes really stand out and work well. Truly a formidable fleet there, though I'm sure the M-Tron guys are a bit annoyed at everyone copying them Batbrick Away!
July 7, 201014 yr Wow cool find - thanks for posting all that. The classic-space colors make my favorite version

July 9, 201014 yr Now look at these ... ok I have to admit, that I have seen some of these MCMs before. I always wanted to have one of those when I was a kid and it came out. I didn't have too much M-Tron, but at least some. But this was the masterpiece I wanted so badly. But I didn't get it. Now someone makes it in different themes ... at the same time. This guy really made me jealous. Edited July 9, 201014 yr by Balrog

And thanks to everyone else for the kind words on my 6989 rebuilds. Nathan Todd, our "Irish" IndyLUG member pointed me to this thread at our club meeting yesterday. Brian
