Here are some images of my kitbash of the Eagle HLT (Heavy Lift Transport) inspired from the Space 1999 universe. Built from two MPC 1/72 scale MPC Eagle 1 Transport kits and parts from my spares box.
With two and a half times the lifting capacity as the Eagle Transports the Eagle HLT was instrumental in the construction of Moonbase Alpha.
Beautiful model... :-)

Thanks Marzio!!
ReplyDeleteIt's missing a C.B. antenna!
ReplyDeleteNEAT!
Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteBuilt like a big truck with the equivalent of the two rear wheel axles, very ingenious :) Cool!
ReplyDeleteLOL!! That's exactly what I was thinking!
ReplyDeleteSemi-truck was my first thought too, on seeing your model! Does that make the extra service module behind the cockpit a sleeper cab? And shine up those engine bells. Any self-respecting big rig has chrome stacks!
ReplyDelete'Twas the dark of the moon/ on the 13th of September/ And an Eagle haulin' waste ... OK, that doesn't work.
