Generally, when one thinks about yore’s classic space themes, big spaceship builds come to mind and occasionally a tiny rover. The G Brix gives us something different – a very large LEGO rover which can be flipped over, each side with its own aesthetic, depending on your mood it can be Blacktron or the Space Police.
The space police portion of the build uses vibrant translucent red elements, including the cockpit, and brilliant blue elements such as tiles and wing pieces. Of course, there are some distinguishing printed “police” tiles and slopes.
Now flip the build over and you get a very cool blacktron build complete in the black and yellow color scheme. Signature elements also included here are the yellow trans-clear cockpit and the printed slope with the blacktron logo.
This vehicle is a model and an RC car as well that can be controlled through an app. Overall it is an awesome build for any fan of classic space themes villainous or heroic.
I believe he used the sbrick part and interface design to create the R/C functions with normal Lego Power Functions parts. I haven’t seen one in person but it looks very nice and deserves a mention for sure!

Yes Jimmy, exactly! I used SBrick and Lego Batteries to power and control the rover. In my final rover however the scale was soo big that I need a LiPo battery to power the whole thing :D
