As a little tweak to my Randy Cooper SD, I pimped the little Micro Machines Blockade Runner for the docking bay. Still has to be repainted.

Now, that is way cool!!!!
Thanks guys! It was a real delicate job
No battery that small could power up all the LEDs. You can see the cable (b/w) on the right.

Don't hide it away in the docking bay... mount it just in front of hte star destroyer, with electroluminescent laser beams flying back and forth. Pew pew!

Great job on that Thomas. I agree, don't hide it away
Thanks again for the nice words!
Underside looks exactly like the upper side. All LEDs are contained. I cut the back of the piece, hollowed it out, drilled the holes and fit the LEDs.
Each LED usually runs on 3.3 Volts and I have a 12V power source for the SD. I did not want to use resistors because of the limited space in there, so I wired the upper 4 and lower 4 LEDs together.
Because there are only 3 LEDs in the mid section of the engines, I had the idea to use another LED for the cockpit

Now THAT is great :thumbsup
How the hell did you fit all the leds in there?
C´mon, post a pic of the underside and shar eyour secret...pleeeeeaaase

I never would have thought that was possible with mirco machines if I hadn't seen it here first
great job :thumbsup
great job :thumbsup
Thanks for the nice words guys!
Hm, might be possible. Do you know these vibrating self-contained toothbrushes with the tiny motor?
