I wanted a good way to display my Kreons and put together this vaguely Cybertron based MOC. I took the Lego deathstar as the basic template and then adapted the levels to create some of my favourite scenes from the comics. Here is a the basic shape. Below I will go through some of the scenes I have added in.
This scene is based on Fire in the Sky. Starscream and the seekers are draining power from the earths core and at the back, something is revealed beneath the melting ice.
Here we have the Mayhem Attack Squad about to be sent to Earth by a body-less Straxus. To the right, the appearance of something angry and pink has spooked the mad scientist Jihaxus...
This is probably my favourite. It is based on UK issue 152 where Galvatron takes on the Seacons. He doesn't seem too concerned, whilst Shockwave watches from the undersea base.
Here is the bridge of the Ark. Ironhide is on the cannon, blasting through the asteroid field while their ultimate destination has appeared on the front screen. Hound and Sideswipe at the back appear to be watching something beyond the door...
Here is the Lost Light Crew with a fairly shonky Metroplex as background. Nightbeat is holding a stone falcon as an homage to the issue Bird of Prey
This scene is based on the issue where Scorponok invents the Pretenders. His loyal troops (Apeface, Snapdragon, Slugslinger) look bemused.
This section is the main Decepticon area. Its loosley basedx on the fighting pit from Megatron origin. Here the Predacon and Constructacon leaders are seeing who is better before a packed crowd while Soundwave takes notes and Blackjack takes bets
At the back of the crowd the Scavengers have lost interest in the fight thanks to the arrival of Tarn
And here is something of a Phase Sixer get together, although Black Shadow also looks a little put off by Tarn behind him
It's hard to see but there is also a hatch here that drops into the smelting pool on the level below. Powerglide is about to be pushed in.
And here is the Smelting pool on the deck below. Blaster has made it to the ledger but Scrounge is half melted in the middle. It's kind of too dark and small to get a good shot.
