I built a Lego Enterprise-D bridge diorama and viewscreen for my Star Trek minifigures - and instructions are available now!

I was lucky enough to get the Lego Enterprise-D set for Christmas, and decided that I needed to design somewhere for the minifigures to be displayed. Picard deserves to sit down! I posted my Enterprise-D bridge diorama and viewscreen builds a few weeks ago, and lots of people requested the instructions. I've been working away on them, and I'm happy to report that both are now available here:

MOC-256838 - Star Trek TNG Enterprise-D Bridge Diorama

MOC-257015 - Star Trek TNG Enterprise-D Viewscreen

The bridge diorama recreates the iconic set from Star Trek: The Next Generation entirely in bricks, from the curved wooden console behind the command chairs to the LCARS computer displays. You can also optionally add in the plaque and logo stickers from the Enterprise set.

The viewscreen is designed as a modular companion piece to the diorama which can be attached or displayed alongside or separately. To give the Enterprise crew something to look at, it includes a customisable starfield box and more than a dozen microscale ships, space lifeforms, and scenery elements, from Borg cubes and Romulan Birds of Prey to mysterious Crystalline Entities and even Deep Space Nine!

But the viewscreen is not just a window onto space - it's the Enterprise's primary means of communicating with all the friendly or hostile beings they encounter across the final frontier. With this in mind, I've also included some of the most famous aliens and other callers from the series as 2D tile art panels which can be clipped into the viewscreen. Lego Picard needs to deliver those stirring speeches to somebody, after all.

I hope you enjoy these MOCs - all comments, feedback, and shares are very welcome. Temba, his arms wide!
