Blacktron remixes: Renegade + Invader


6954-1: Renegade, 1987. Asymmetrical Blacktron flagship separates into 9 components! 💯



Our 7th year doing the LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar together. Still fun. This year I have not yet upgraded my iPhone, so once again these are shot with an iPhone 7 Plus. I got crazy sick around Christmas and so never took the pictures for the final 3 days. For the first time, these builds were shot on location in Switzerland, France, and Brazil!
Just for kicks an expanded track layout for the Futuron monorail that my son pieced together today.

A selling point for the first wave of Blacktron sets was compatibility of modules between sets. Here are 3 Invader + Battrax combos.



6941-1: Battrax, 1987. A space hot rod / dragster! Kudos to whoever dreamed up this one. Modular ground vehicle that splits into 3 parts.




Blacktron had their own logo too, sort of an inverted triforce (only not equilateral).

Futuron felt like an evolution of the original Classic Space astronauts, but Blacktron were their own new faction. Darker than prior sets.
