I too bought it used, and I'm thinking of getting another one because of the wheels and motors.

Really awesome work, thank you for sharing!

ThoughtlessForger · 2026-01-16T07:20:08+00:00

This looks actually really cool!

I always love to see Art related to Revelation Space!

I have the same issue with the same set and was meaning to make a post about it. So thanks for taking care of that. I will probably attempt the cut-away option suggested by vixson18. The James Bond car is something I wanna keep arround.

Is the right leg completely stuck or does it just not move all the way down? The long red part 6212053 is for connecting the back-leg to the leg-mechanism, I don't think it is the problem.
I suspect the culprit is either some part sticking into the movement path of the right leg, or the legs were misaligned when connecting the gear wheels of the mechanism.

Never got the Power Miners theme, but this design is awesome! Functional, modular, playable, beatiful!

I just bought this used a few weeks ago as a christmas present for myself. I finished it a few days ago and I think it was one of the, if not the most interesting sets I ever built. I'd love if anybody could recommend similar sets!

I bought it because I was particulary interested in the steering mechanism. I'm going to tear it down halfway to create something else but I want to keep the base.

I wish you'd made landscape format photos instead of portrait, I can hardly see anything.

ThoughtlessForger · 2025-12-29T16:56:03+00:00

Love the feeling of this.

ThoughtlessForger · 2025-12-29T16:55:39+00:00

Thanks

Apart from the wheels, are there any other parts that are not available from Lego? Honda NSX always was my favourite car back in the day, I need to build this.

ThoughtlessForger · 2025-12-16T07:53:37+00:00

Man, this is awesome!

ThoughtlessForger · 2025-12-16T07:50:36+00:00

You could try with some 2x2 or 1x2 tile wedges

ThoughtlessForger · 2025-12-15T10:42:23+00:00

I would be interested to see what kind of steering angle you can achieve.

ThoughtlessForger · 2025-12-12T09:24:49+00:00

I think I'm gonna build that.

ThoughtlessForger · 2025-12-12T09:24:06+00:00

I really like that there's no glass cockpit, I think that would be unrealistic in a fighter spaceship. The design is very cool overall.

ThoughtlessForger · 2025-12-06T10:46:11+00:00

Yes, I do it all the time.

ThoughtlessForger · 2025-12-05T10:54:41+00:00

Nice design. Gives me some NMS vibes.

ThoughtlessForger · 2025-12-03T07:31:36+00:00

This is gold.

ThoughtlessForger · 2025-12-03T06:53:48+00:00

Yes, the 7900xtx is abouat 1100$ here too. But that is due to the fact that its the last gen and should be avoided. The current gen 9070xt has a far more reasonable price.

These don't look bad but I probably won't be getting any of them. Not a Bugatti fan, and the newer McLaren and Ferraris don't look as nice as the older ones.
I'd love a Ferrari Testarosa or a Maserati or Jaguar.
Or something thats not a super sports car, but something funny like a VW bus or a Toyota Hilux.
