In a LEGO UCS (Ultimate Collectors Series) world of X-Wings and Millenium Falcons, Lino Martins (Hey, that’s me!) builds something no one wanted or asked for. It’s a Nantex-class Geonosian Starfighter from Star Wars: Attack of the Clones, also known as a beak fighter. It boasts an opening canopy and working landing gear. That is all. Oh, and it’s 21 inches long; more than 53 centimeters to the rest of the world. This marks the first time I’ve built my own LEGO creation in a couple of years, so that should suffice as chest beating and a display of dominance right up until 15 minutes from now when something bigger and better comes along.

Here it is resting on its aforementioned landing gear.

And finally, a shot showcasing the strange cockpit.
