My second rover for Febrovery is a re-imagining of set 6896 Celestial Forager. John had bought me a bunch of magnets a couple years ago, and they were some of the only pieces I brought with me when moving. So I’m glad to put them to use here!
I included most of the original’s main features with an articulating body, magnetic crane, and in my rendition the radar dish can be raised or lowered. Making this brought back a lot of fun memories of building vehicles for my youngest brother to play with.
Special thanks to Markus and Marin for loaning me some parts to complete the M-Tron styling.
After building the rover I wanted to use my remaining roller coaster tracks for some sort of M-Tron outpost. This loading station was the result.
The crane can slide back and forth along the rail at top, and swivel to easily load or unload the containers.
