Description
This is a model of a flying vehicle I made from Legos (pieces from the 7163 Republic Gunship). Please ignore the Clone Troopers, they are there merely to give a sense of scale.
This ship is a low altitude shuttle for transporting small groups of troops. It has an open deck and the central canopy lifts to allow militia to deploy more quickly. The ship is manned by a single pilot in the front cockpit. The two airfoils move up and down to provide maximum stability in take-off and during flight. The ship tends to stay relatively low, as it's not designed for higher altitudes. It can however land on water and propel itself similar to a barge.
I've uploaded a handful of different images from various angles. So far it's the only Spore model I've constructed from Lego, but I hope to do a few more soon.

I would like to point out that the subject of the image was meant to be the Transport Shuttle not the pineapple.
