I used to love Lego when I was younger, and since I started playing Eve, that love has been rekindled. I mean, some of these beautiful Eve ships are just begging to be built irl. So I decided to wallow in nostalgia and build an Astero. And it actually turned out okay. Now it's on my desk at home. :p What do you guys think?

Weve already tried getting LEGO to make a lego rifter. We got the required votes for them to think about it seriously but failed to have a global enough market to make it profitable in the long run to do a limited run.

Colour me jealous, because the OP still has lego. My nephews have somehow managed to acquire most of mine, including my boxed ,at least until they got their grubby little mitts on it, 70's Space Lego and Lego Technic Cry

In the beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Yeah, I had to demolish an X-wing for this.

Hard to say, seeing as the parts were salvaged from a lot of random stuff.

And yes, Ralph King-Griffin, I have heard of Space Engineers, but haven't really checked it out. For the same reason you dread to mention it. ;)

Couple of hours. Most of it was finding the right pieces. Ah well, that's part of the experience, right? Smile
