Technic MOC Rebel SnowSpeeder by Drakmin, version 2014

Depressed by the calculation of my estimated LEGO budget for 2014 largely weighed down by the Sandcrawler, I decided to take my mind off my head by going for a walk on the side of drakmin's flickr gallery, a talented MOCeur whom I had already told you about two years ago on our blog.

All this to tell you that the update of its Snowspeeder is worth a look for its exemplary finish and because it proves to us in the process that we can do something other than backhoe loaders and dump trucks with parts from the Technic range. On this model, the airbrakes, the rear flaps and the harpoon gun are mobile via two levers located in the cockpit.

If you feel like it, take the time to surrender on his flickr gallery, other (superb) photos of this MOC are available there and you will also discover a visual of his X-Wing Technic project still being finalized.

This Snowspeeder is also the subject ofa Cuusoo project, which objectively has little chance of ever reaching 10.000 supporters and even less of ending up on the shelves of the LEGO Shop, but if you are active on the Cuusoo platform, you can always show your appreciation for drakmin's work by a vote.
