Visitors Sky-Fighter

Visitors Sky-Fighter

Hello everybody! I am pleased to introduce you my first project on LEGO ideas. This model is based on V (the television series of 1984-85) and it shows a Sky-Fighter, the popular fighting shuttle of the Visitors’ army.

Main Features

Bricks: 900 approximately.

Size: 32.5 cm (length), 23 cm (width), 12 cm (high).

Stickers: One in the nose and two in the wings, showing the Visitors’ emblem.

The access door is formed by two foldable sections. The upper one is part of the wing and it folds up to 90º upwards. The lower one is part of the lateral body and it folds 90º downwards, turning into a gangway.   

The landing gear is formed by three retractable legs; a front one located under the cockpit, and two more on the sides under the wings. Each leg is connected to a support base by means of a ball joint that allows its movement in all directions. During the flight, the legs are lodged within the aircraft and covered by landing gear doors.

The rear hatch folds 90º upwards, providing access to the gunner’s compartment. The laser cannons slide forwards, protruding from the small opening left by a hinged panel.

Minifigures

Diana: Commander of the Mother ship over Los Angeles.

Reptilian humanoid 1: Sky-Fighter’s Pilot.

Reptilian humanoid 2: Sky-Fighter’s Gunner.
