Super Galactic, Twin Pilot Patrol Craft "Aerial Avenger"

 If that isn't a mouthful of a MOC name, I don't know what is. But just like the title, the MOC is a combination of all the Blacktron 2 spaceships. This isn't the first time I have done this, either. It's in fact the fourth time. Blimey, I forgot about one of those...

I've tried to include as many elements from the sets as possible, like the dish on the cockpit from the Spectral Starguider, or the rotating blaster from the Aerial Intruder. The rear wings take elements from the Aerial Intruder, Super Nova 2, Allied Avenger, Alpha Centauri Outpost, and even Twin Pilot Craft!

Blacktron-Va

 This little Blacktron Mech-drone really reminds me of the Bohrak Va from Bionicle. I think it's fairly obvious why.

It's a cute little MOC by Duncan Lindbo, and I am sure those Blacktron guys are up to no good.

A slew of cockpits.

 A simple fun thing I like to do sometimes is build cockpits for ships, like the ones Aerial Intruder, or Allied Avenger had. Here are a trio I made a while back.

The first one here is a beefed up version. It's a bit bigger and tougher looking.

This next one is an shrunken little Allied Avenger, but with a meaner twist. Just trying out those printed canopies the Stingrays used. Had to build it a bit differently because the side that the printing is on.

And the third is basically a Super Nova 2 that's been "Podified"

Oh, and here's a fourth one! This one actually has a ship to go with it, which you'll see soon! This fourth one is very much a mixture of all the sets, it has aspects from as many as I could incorporate, like the dish from the Spectral Starguider, the double prongs on the sides like the Alpha Centauri Outpost, but in white, like the Allied Avenger.

Blacktron Bionicle Boat

 Yeah, you heard that right. I built a Blacktron MOC. That's also a boat. that's also Bionicle.

It's not the first time I have done a boat in Blacktron, but this is the first time I have thrown Bionicle into the mix. after all, I do love Bionicle as much as Blacktron and Boats.

It was a bit of a challenge do build a boat out of parts that weren't designed for it, but I think I managed quite well. The natural flex of the Bionicle elements gave me the ability to get a nice curvature to the hull.

Now that's a Blacktron CRUISER!

 If you thought the recent GWP Blacktron Cruiser was awesome, your a normal human being. If you thought it needed to be much bigger, you might be seb71. The builder upscaled the ship, and did such an excellent job, captured the shape and essence, while still being a completely new and exciting thing!

It even comes apart into the proper sections.

And to top it all off, Bionicle parts are used as greebling.

News flash: Febrovery was last month!

 And it churned out a lot of Blacktron Rovers this time around! Here's a few of my favorite ones:

A usual contributor to the blog here, Spacerunner built this Warhorse. It reminds me a bit of the Alienator, but if it had treads. And obviously a mohawk.

This satellite launcher by Ids de Jong has some very Classic-era vibes to it.

There were plenty more, go check them out here!

Micro boom!

 A tiny tank for Blacktron 1. It's so cute, but that laser canon will still blow you to smithereens! 

Built by Geoff Horswood

Castle!

 It's not often you see a Space castle. and that's clearly what this is. The builder even calls it Castle Black(tron), so there really is no confusion whatsoever.

I am very glad I found this when I did, for this is the 375th post on Color it Blacktron. 375 is the number of the first and maybe most famous castle set, the Yellow Castle.

Invader Mk 4

 Before I even saw pictures of the recent Blacktron cruiser GWP, I built this MOC for a contest on Eurobricks. The premise of that contest was to build a space ship with a smaller vehicle within 20-40 studs.

The rover comes out, and it's even got a neat function to do it!

Blacktron 2 may be my bread and butter, but I can still build a mean Blacktron 1 ship from time to time.

Tank you very much.

 This Blacktron treaded vehicle looks like it could take on any terrain! It may not be speedy, but not much is going to get in it's way. Built by Diego Carestiato for Lego Ideas, so maybe go and give it some support!

BLACKTRON IS BACK! (For a limited time only)

 If you haven't seen the news yet, there is a new GWP on Lego.com, and it's BLACKTRON!

Price point is a little high to get it (It varies by country, but here in Canada it's $250. Ouch) But if you are a fan of Blacktron in any way, go and get it while supplies last!

I'll try to get a review up as soon as I can. 

Race to the death!

 To the death of the Classic Space guy, maybe! This SCARAB racer by Rubblemaker is ready to race against even the toughest opponents. even Sebulba would think twice about racing against the Blacktron SCARAB!

Weekend build

 SHIPtember snuck up on me this year. I hadn't really thought about doing it this year, but then I was struck with an idea while at work. A bit of doodling with some graph paper, and BOOM! next thing I know, I want to build SHIPtember. I didn't have a lot of time, with getting ready for a convention in a couple of weeks, and I had not a lot of parts leftover (See previous post), and little table space. But that last one was easily fixed by putting the monorail base on the floor.

Built in less than 48 hours, It's probably my quickest SHIPtember build yet. Maybe one of my quickest SHIP builds ever. But I also didn't do any interior. Maybe later.

Time to flex.

 This is my Blacktron collection, in case you didn't realize how serious my disability, I mean love for Blacktron is. Especially Blacktron 2.

Two was good, how about three?

 When Lego randomly gives a number onto a Lego set name (Like Super Nova 2, Star Hawk 2, Star Defender 200), it just invites MOCers to build their own versions and enlarge the number. Paulo Carreira, a person after my own heart, has built a Super Nova III, an upgrade on one of the smaller Blacktron ships.

In the builders own words: "This was build to commemorate the 16th Anniversary of my LUG, Comunidade 0937, where we had to make a Redux of a LEGO set or wooden toy produced in the last 90 years. Of course I had to go for a Blacktron II vehicle since they're the coolest faction ever produced by LEGO." Well, at least one person agrees with me.
