Chrono Trigger

10 comments

Chrono Trigger redefined the role playing game world. Created by Squaresoft, it inspired generations and many RPG's to come. Crono, the main character was a boy of few words (really none at all). He and a group of friends that he would meet throughout eras, history and the future would have to save the world. The choices made along the way would affect the outcome of the game.

My idea for this set includes the playable characters: (from left to right) Crono, Marle/ Nadia, Lucca, Frog, Ayla, Robo and Magus, and also the Epoch or Aero Dalton Imperial, and Gato. Gato is a giant red robotic cat that sings. You can fight Gato early in the game at a fair to earn money for prizes. His song always sticks in my head 'My name is Gato, I have metal joints. Beat me up and earn 15 silver points'.

The Epoch was a lot of fun to build. In the game it is created by Belthasar and given to the team. It is a time machine that originally has no wings. They use it to travel to the past where it is stolen by Dalton. Dalton adds wings to it and renames it the Aero Dalton Imperial. In the game when you land the Epoch the wings fold in so i added this feature to my set. The wings fold in and out sliding under the cockpit.

The cockpit includes 3 seats, storage and a rack for Crono's and Frog's swords. There are levers and a fuel gage. The back has a trunk to store Nadia's crossbow and Lucca's gun. The back has flames shooting out as well.

This game was a lot of fun and, even if you've never played it, I think this set would be fun for you. The Epoch is a unique spacecraft/ time machine and Gato is an amusing and interesting build. The minifigures are colorful and fun.
