LEGO embraces Moonbase
The LEGO company has set a challenge to their own designers - create a moonbase module and present it at Brickfest!
I think this is the first time that LEGO has embraced a fan-created system like this. It’s great news for the relationship between adult fans of LEGO (AFOLs) and the LEGO company.
You can vote for your favorite of the designs presented. Here are the candidates; click the images to see more pictures:
 1. The Loony Luna Knight |
 2. Command and Defence |
 3. Squidman Module |
 4. Space Hungry Hippos |
 5. Ice Planet Dome |
Personally I voted for the Hungry Hippos. Remember that game from when we were kids in the 70’s? See the video if you’re not convinced just how cool this LEGO model is!

[...] The LEGO designer moonbase Contest seems to have been won by my favorite - Hungry Hippos. Or at least, I spotted it in the Moonbase layout. [...]
