One Cool Custom Lego Gunship

by

In my recent post about the new Lego Gunship, reader XeQUae made mention that he had two of the old (and ultra valuable) Lego Gunships and he modified it so it can be an AT-TE carrier like in the one of the best scenes in the entirety of Attack of the Clones.

This thing is great. Congrats and thanks to XeQUae for the cool ship. I’m going to bust out a couple of seals of approval for this one. First there’s there’s the mighty cool stamp of approval:

AND THEN Duran Duran steps in to give a double shot of approval:

It’s not often that you see this kind of nerd approval, folks.
