My Blacktron space base's 100 remaining parts have been ordered as of yesterday.
Stay tuned for updates in the New Year for this model and others!

The cargo pod for set 10355 (inspired by a MOD by Huw from Brickset) has just over a dozen parts to go, and the antenna for the Blacktron space base is missing just five pieces. These two MOC's are going to be finished in early January when the space base's few remaining parts are ordered.

Ok, so I managed to reverse engineer the cargo pod Huw Millington designed and posted to Brickset, with a few embellishments in places. (nothing of which that impacts the dropping function from the set) This model is heavily inspired by just two pictures of his MOD of set 10355, (Blacktron Renegade) this cargo pod MOC features an opening lid with plenty of room inside for ill-gotten goods.
NOTE: The MOC is missing four parts, 4x of 41682 in black used on the lid in spots that should be pretty obvious.
