Tonia, before you start working on another ship (if you plan on doing it), it might pay to wait a bit and check out the new models of some ships coming with inferno. I, for one, am very curious about the new crucifier.

Happy to say that the LEGO Merlin is now available on Cuusoo:

LEGO Merlin


Supported! :D

Once I finish with it, you may be seeing a UCS size of the older style Reaper on there. I had posted a thread of it some time ago but the forums ate it lol. While your focusing on the bigger frigates, I think I may be going with the rookie ships. We'll see how that goes.

That looks awesome! Great work! And definitely put it up on Cuusoo! I LOVE all the EVE cuusoo products. It really shows LEGO how serious we are. I really wish I had the time (and pieces) to build all the ships. My next builds will be the Executioner and Incursus.

Thank you! Yep I plan to... and to also include the pod I built that can fit a guy. .The pod is actually small enough that it might have a chance of fitting in your Merlin now I think about it. It's roughly 7 studs wide and 10 studs long. Might be too small for Lego figs... but it can still fit one in there.

Even if Cuusoo turns it down, I have far plans to build the ship in reality. If you need more pieces, you could always try looking into Bricklink if you haven't already. I plan to start buying like it's the end of the world when the times comes for me to buy parts for my noob ship.

I have purchased pieces on Bricklink occasionally to complete existing sets or sets I buy on ebay that may be missing a piece. The Merlin represents the first time I've ever bought pieces off of Bricklink to finish a non-instruction model. Usually I look for workarounds. I did buy a ton of cheese slopes.

Ahh, cool. Yea... I would hate to see what my inventory would cost. I would have to purchace everything as my extra parts collection is the pile in this picture. ...Though if I go and think like a Minmatar, I could build my ship with those... and have pieces left over to also build a titan. But yea, mostly everything I own is in a storage unit >.>
