Moc Monday: Bigger is Better, Even in Space

The classic Lego space themes of the 70s and 80s have always had a huge following.  To this day, people continue to build MOCs based on lines released 40 years ago.  This spaceship by Jacob Sadovich stands out.  Not just because it's big and scary, and covered in weapons, but because it's scaled to a Technic figure. 

I like it.  Maybe more of us should try building things in this scale.

You can see more of this ship and other cool builds on his Flickr.
