Posted July 30, 201410 yr This is my build for "Friends in Space" contest on Rebrick. If you like it, please support it and 'Like' it here: http://rebrick.lego....ervatory/8vd1p5 The Friends' Moon Base Observatory The building hinges open and we see Mia is charting the night sky on observatory's telescope. Emma is just arriving through the airlock. She has two friends she made on a previous expedition excited to have her home. And Stephanie is busy examining rocks brought back by Emma. Her robotic dog keeps her company and reminds her that she needs to eat and drink as well as investigate. The ladder hinges up for easy access of the lab below and fits into its own space vertically for when the building is closed. The telescope dome opens and the telescope gantry rotates 360 degrees. Stephanie investigating in the lab with her robotic dog. Every hard-working gal needs a coffee machine. Emma is arriving home through the air lock. These two cute and cuddly creatures Emma found on a previous exploration. They have been waiting for her. Window seats contain the girl's lockers. Thank you! - Cara.
July 30, 201410 yr By Crom this is awesome! I've been thinking about larger Friends sets. Do they always include a toilet? If so this so needs a space toilet.
July 30, 201410 yr AWESOME Friendly creation 'Cara'.......and those little blue creatures are cute as ! Brick On with your Friend's 'Cara' !

July 30, 201410 yr This is superb! I love the attention to detail throughout the piece. Good luck in the competition!

They are from my son's Mixels - poor little guys currently sitting blind on his bookshelf. On 7/30/2014 at 9:35 PM, Faefrost said: Great MOC. What is the hinged dome from? The dome comes from Buzz Lightyear, its his visor. I had to contact LEGO Customer Support because one of the rules of the challenge is no licensed pieces, to check that it was generic.
July 30, 201410 yr This is awesome - functional and stylish! My favourite details are the coffee machine, the furry critters and how the telescope can fully rotate. Good luck in the contest!
July 31, 201410 yr Wow really great Cara! Love all the friendish details and the cute creatures. "Liked" Though posted in the wrong forum
July 31, 201410 yr What a great mashup! Love it! The robo-dog and constellation on the wall are very clever.
August 1, 201410 yr I showed this to my daughter n she freaked! We both love it, actually. This is an incredible build. It has tons of details and neat functions..Thanks for posting!
August 1, 201410 yr Lovely Moc! The internal details are great and that little creature drive me crazy! ;-) I like the robot-dog too!
August 17, 201410 yr I like this MOC a lot. The main thing that catches my attention is that you capture the essence of a moon base without incorporating all the "space" standards that have been lingering around for more than a decade. Nice original work!
August 18, 201410 yr Well done... this is a challenging concept to pull off and your design feels very true to both Friends and Space. Good luck in the competition!
August 19, 201410 yr Wow! A very creative approach to the space theme! The Friends gals look quite comfortable inside and definitely liven up the place. The aliens from the Mixel and Car Wash family are a total hoot! Hahaha! The details are just sumptuous! So much to see and do here...flat out wonderful. (I definitely would buy this set.) Congratulations on an extremely fine build!
