Had a few hours to waste today, so I built this.

I ran out of yellow, and had to substitute other colors. Yuck. Also, one of the engines is on backwards. Oh well, too late.

Just say it's in the middle of doing a Crazy Ivan. ;)

I approve of this design. When can you begin production?

Mal-licious

I think I will add cursing and the hurling about of things to my repertoire.

The side view looks very good - perhaps Lego should do a Firefly model or even better a Lego Technic set - could always set up a challenge on the boards :biggrin:

I really like the form of your ship.

Are you working on any other Firefly/Serenity projects?

For that matter, is anyone else working on Lego Firefly projects?

Hello. You've caught something there. Crude yes, primitive yes, perhaps even grotesque. Yet something tells me that this might be our man.

Quoting movies aside, very nice. The side view is quite impressive.

I admit it. I am a true fan(atic).

Thanks for the praise. Now all my yellow legos are staying there at least until October...

Anyone have any extra yellow legos?

:)

I do have to ask -- why yellow?

At any rate, here are a couple of ways you can stock up on yellow:

I only have yellow, grey, red and blue. It would've been grey, but I have so few.

:)

Oooh, thanks for the links!

Not a problem. I imagine similar searches would work for grey.

The only thing to watch out for is old grey vs new grey.

the movie is not the Series. Only the facts have been changed, to irritate the innocent; the names of the actors and characters remain the same

It's even the way Zoic rendered it, which is opposite to the way Joss wrote it in the script.

Most shinesome! Have you seen the extras on Monty Python's Holy Grail where they perform Knights of the Round Table but using Lego. It's amazing. I am waiting for a Lego firefly scene.

Down the centuries you have slurred the meaning of the words, WE THE PEOPLE...

Nowhere else, folks. Newbies take note of the company you're keeping. Best not be tellin' the Firefly-uninitiated about this, they'll be thinkin' we're a few rounds short of a clip!
