Some people imagine a future where everyone has their own flying car. I’d much rather live in a world where everyone has access to reliable and affordable flying public transportation! Like a train pulled by LEGO builder Daniel Barwegen‘s Space Train engine. I love how Daniel blends sci-fi repulsors with the look of a modern electric commuter train. The color blocking is sharp, using triangular tiles to create diagonal stripes. A piston rod amongst the thrusters is a fun nod to tradition.

Their previous board games were kind of hit or miss, so this time they joined forces with Asmodee, an entertainment leader specializing in board games. Although the game is not yet listed on LEGO’s […]Original linkOriginal author: Thita (admin)
