I'm sure one or two of you have run into the Blacktron Intelligence Agency while poking around on Mocpages.I know the guy who made this. Doctor Darrow comes to model train conventions that I attend and usually brings these two beasties to show off-

I've bought a few Classic sets from him- in fact, this is the dude from who I got my Deadly Spacemen.

Another train convention is going on this week, and I came across his stuff. We fell to talking- as usual- and he handed me a flyer for a new convention in Indiana, called Indy Brick Jamboree.

Just a heads up to you guys in the area. It's in October, and it looks like there's going to be some epic stuff there, including Darrow's large collection of classic sets for sale. There won't be any Brikwars, but it is a new Lego con that's just starting up. I'm going to try and make it up there.

Also- the Blacktron Intelligence Agency Video.

Those sets are masterful! I hate how most of this stuff is away from me.

If those were closer to yore house, all yore Lego would be sucked into the Black Leghole gravitational well formed by this much Lego all in one place.

Ross, I say you run away from home and have this guy adopt you.

I'll have to look up if there are any Toronto Lego conventions, cause all the ones people post are hours away from me. :(

:roll: I am jealous, it just so happens I have a recent craving for classic deadly space men. MY DREAM OF RED VS BLUE [deadly spacemen] SHALL BECOME A REALITY SOME DAY!

Unfortunatley nothing on bricklink appeals to me and all I have are one of each black, white, red and blue reissued space men.

I've mentioned it to him. Funnily enough, he gazed at it thoughtfully for a moment, then grinned and asked me where I thought he put the Blacktron armory.

Potential, eh?
