Star Wars Sandcrawler made from over 10000 Lego pieces

Again, a communique from the 'too much time on their hands' galaxy, via the 'that is totally awesome' wormhole.

This time, it's a Jawa Sandcrawler from the galaxy's least interesting place, Tattooine, made from over 10,000 Lego pieces.

The resulting model is over a metre in length, and weighs in at around twenty kilos.

Of course, as it's completely awesome, and not just partly awesome, it's motorized, using nine motors, four receivers, four battery backs an twenty two LED lights. It's the perfect radio controlled Sandcrawler that every sandpit needs.

Functions include the ramp going up and down, driving (duh), the conveyor belts move (sweet) and the little crane is also radio controlled.

The entire project took nine months to build.






The creator? Marshal Banana Congrats, we salute you, Marshal.

I think Vulcan Eddie's confusing a couple of things into one, as well - Russell T Davies has stated that he considers the Time Lords started the Time War when they sent the Fourth Doctor, Sarah and Harry to Skaro to prevent the creation of the Daleks (only being partially successful, setting them back by a milleniun or so, and completely altering their future timeline - a discussion for another day, that one!) in "Genesis of the Daleks".

Later, in "Resurrection of the Daleks", the Daleks have captured the Fifth Doctor, Tegan and Turlough with the intent of duplicating them and sending the duplicates to Gallifrey to assassinate the Time Lord High Council - which could be seen as their response (the only Dalek story between "Genesis" and "Resurrection" was "Destiny of the Daleks", where the Daleks resurrected their long-dead creator Davros, but that was for a tactical advantage in a logic-deadlocked war with the Movellans).
