Newer LUG member Cody, Victor and I switched out the LUG Showcase for the Queens LEGO Store on March 26th. We swapped out Rick and Will’s gallery of Mechs for a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles scene.
The centerpiece of the display is Cody’s beautiful TMNT moc which is a three level display. The top tier is a street scene with a custom TMNT Party Van arriving on the scene to battle Baxter’s Robot, a middle tier showcasing a subway and Krang and the bottom where Fishface and a Foot Clan soldier are attacking the Turtle lair with ooze. Vic and I only added official TMNT sets to the moc as a way to help showcase LEGO products. Scattered throughout the scene are over 20 Foot Clan soldiers, the Turtles and Splinter, April, Baxter and 6 Mouser Turtles and Fishface. Setting up the Foot Clan soldiers was easier said than done as Cody’s moc was nearly studless and Vic came up with some clever ways to display the figs. Also, we made use of magnets to hang a Turtle glider-this is sort of a trademark detail for us Queens Showcase builders-we always try to incorporate something hanging from a magnet to the roof of the showcase.
This model will be on display until the 3rd week in April. There are too many details to see in this model so go check it out at the Queens LEGO Store inside the Queens Center Mall.
Great combination of Old and New Turtles!
Is there a way I can buy a smaller version of this? I have so many legos, and this would be perfect. Let me know. Thanks!
Chewymurphy,
I’ll email Cody to make sure he sees your post so he can answer your question.
Hello, thank you for the interest! I would happy to make you a version of this to the scale you would like it to be. Plz contact me at c3brix@gmail.com and we can discuss the particulars! Also I have other 80’s TMNT creations built like the turtle blimp and technodrome I can send you pics of! Look forward to hearing from you! Cody Wells (C3Brix/ILUGNY Member)
