in 1944 the empire of japan faced a new threat. the B29. the B29 was unlike any other warplane in the world. it had a targetting system that can only be called an "analog computer" it had 2 bombays, 11 crew. 4 remote control turrets command by the tail gunner and the CFC. it had super long range, (hitting tokyo from bases in manchuria.) and it also dropped the atomic bombs. it was the worlds first Strategic bomber, and the only one to see active service during ww2. and i made it in mifig scale!

the central are near the CFC and side gunners.

DEPLOYABLE LANDING GEAR!

good, but will it hold up in real life?

it should. i think? almost all the plates overlap by at least 2 studs, and the entire exterior is made out of plates. the floor is normall and flat and each wing is supported in 2 locations. i'ld be more worried if the landing gear assembly works (ie center of gravity up front) than if the shell will fall apart. as well the parts where people stand are each individual "blocks" i believe the technique is called SNOT however i do not have a good idea of what SNOT means.

SNOT means Studs Not On Top.

Using SNOT is anything besides just building straight up from a base brick-on-brick.

in that case this is definitely snot. but it is also pure awsome in a can!

Whats the order price?

probably somewhere around $300. its hard to tell since you would either have to peice it out on pab or rebuild it in lego's set rendering program

actually i built this after new version so it's fine. it costs $392.34

from now on ill had 25% to the (my) estimated cost.
