Actually, Nathan Proudlove has entered the FBTB 2009 Podracer Challenge, but a random Episode I reference seemed to work better. No?
Nathan used light bricks from LEGO Creator sets for the energy binders. The dark blue and black color scheme contrasts nicely with the lighter highlights.
Argh…I was gonna use that for the power coupling on my podracer!
Do you think it’ll seem less original if I do now?
It is an excellent podracer, but in the spirit of correctness, he hasn’t actually entered it in the contest yet. ;-)
Garfitor, stick with your own plans. Don’t let someone else’s entry intimidate you, we want to see everyone’s creations. :-)
