An Interesting Idea: REVENGE - Frigate class shuttle (Galaxy Command)

One of the reasons I have picked the Revenge from this week's new projects is its excellent presentation: fun to look at, great background, eye catching "post production" elements. These factors really help the project stand out from the other spaceships on Ideas and sets a great example for the production value you should shoot for.

The other reason I picked it is because I love what it represents. I know that this kind of thing does not qualitatively appeal to the FOL community as a whole but the Revenge is part of the Galaxy Command MOC series on Ideas. Galaxy Command (GC) is a concept that was born on Cuusoo and its development has been influenced by the community of FOLs that contribute to the site. It was fascinating to see how the idea of contributing to a project that could potentially become a real LEGO set inspired individuals to participate.

Although the one year deadlines and inability to edit the main page of the project make it much harder for these grass-roots community projects to reach 10,000 support, I am glad to see them persevere in spite of it. The way these projects and their potential bring FOLs together have value even if they fall short of their ultimate goal.

I must also add that I am excited to see what other FOL community projects develop from Ideas in the future...

Other notable projects from this week include Jurassic Park, "The Bus" from S.H.E.I.L.D., a gingerbread house, a creative implementation of a pirate ship, and a Bat-spaceship which cleverly utilizes a combination of the Batman and LEGO Space logos. These projects and more can be found here.

The Civ bulldozer is a neat concept (useful for those of us making a space Utopia).

@Lormoral,

The bulldozer will certainly be a highlight of the next weekly roundup.

I don't like that spaceship much. It's very big, but it's got a mix of sleekness and underperforming greebles that looks too mediocre. But I like the use of opaque Slave I windscreens on the front.

^^^I LOVE that bulldozer too!
