Massive power loader takes on enormous Xenomorph in LEGO sci-fi battle of the ages

Alien creations appear to be like London buses. You wait ages for some great LEGO creations, and then two come along within a few days of each other! We featured a wonderful Miniland scale power loader earlier this week (along with an excellent title, I may add). But one-time LEGO Masters Australia winner Henry Pinto has upped the load-rating on the power loader, and then some! He’s made a truly titanic take on Ellen Ripley’s yellow ride. But that’s not the only big build here. After all, what’s a power loader without a Xenomorph to chuck around the USS Sulaco’s lower decks?

“Get away from her, you bricks!”

Like James Cameron, here at the Brothers Brick we never turn down an opportunity to show off a good power suit. Take this Minilander-scale Power Loader from Aliens built by Marco DeBon – equally adept at moving cargo and battling Xenomorphs. This model requires a Class-2 license to operate, but is a class all its own in terms of design, with pleasingly chunky arms and a great use of tiles for a clean look.

Ripley can step out of the loader and is fully poseable. She looks like she’s been training with Chun Li before joining the mission to LV-426. I almost feel sorry for the poor Alien queen that has to face her!

From the side, we can better appreciate Marco’s judicious use of greebles and the excellent application of printed and stickered tiles.
