Where can I get a Planet Express ship?

[Reply #40 on:]

I'm not sure about Planet Express ship I tried to build one out of lego pieces got pissed off and quit couldn't get enough pieces the right color . But I have made some of the charaters in lego form. You can check them out if you like. http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p3984.m570.l1313&_nkw=futurama+lego&_sacat=See-All-Categories. Let me know what you think I've designed about thirty of them so far. Just need some help figuring out which ones will sell and which one's won't.

Hahaha, Labarbara. I would make one note about Leela, see if you can make her eye wider...it doesn't quite fit the bill right now, and I think that's why. Have you ever done a Scruffy? I would like to see what we would look like, and if he comes with a mop or washbucket heh.

Have you tried googling other Futurama lego ships to get an idea? I came across this on Youtube:

Awww. Dont be jealous    I have looked around before I started on the ship But couldn't get enough pieces in the colors I wanted. I will try the eye thing see if that helps. Love the mop idea, great stuff. You can see Scruffy and a few others here http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.329734003744664.95821.307276332657098&type=1. I hope I did this right, if not I'm sure y'all let me know!

If you can't get the pieces you want, you can still try building it... download Lego Digital Designer (it's free from Lego's website) and build it virtualy. Then print a .PDF of the instructions (which are auto-generated) and take it along to somebody with a hell of a lot of lego, and see how many of the right bricks you can get.

You could try using white bricks and colouring them with a marker pen, or even airbrushing them with enamel. There's a ton of different ways that the pro's make custom models.

Try the Eurobricks forums for more information.

Get it here.

Once you've mocked up the PX ship, you might want to visit this site to see if Lego might be interested in actually making and selling Futurama Lego.
