The Hero Recon Team customization service for Hero Creator will continue to operate. Orders are accepted until January 16, 2012. Building the umbilical tower is a challenging and expensive project, but if you are up to it, this is your chance to build it as the designer intended.The LEGO Group has decided to close their LEGO Design by Me customization service. The red looks striking next to the white and black of the rocket. While there are many ways to display the #21309 LEGO Ideas NASA Apollo Saturn V (we discussed some of them here: LEGO NASA Apollo Saturn V Display Ideas) the LEGO version of the NASA Saturn V umbilical tower is definitely a beautiful match.

Below are the links to download the parts list and building instructions, as well as additional resources I mentioned and you might find useful: Plus, the creator of the project also provided a couple of very simple alternative stands for the LEGO Ideas Saturn V, which you might consider building if your budget it smaller. There is also a dedicated Facebook page for the model with relevant discussion (no longer available). You might want to check these out before settling on a final version for yourself. In addition to the NASA Saturn V launch Umbilical Tower posted on LEGO Ideas, the project has a couple of other variations as well. You may want to play around with the LEGO Digital Designer file of the model to see if you can swap out some of the hard-to-find parts with cheaper alternatives. LEGO fans who already built the model share that it includes some rare and discontinued parts, which will make the model very expensive (if you don’t already own the pieces). You best option to get the parts you don’t already have is BrickLink, the largest online LEGO marketplace. Please note that this is a massive model, and although a parts list and building instructions are provided freely, you will need to shop for the necessary parts yourself. The overall height of the model is 143 studs = 1.14 meters = 3,75 feet = 45,03 inches, the platform length is 56 studs = 0.448 meters = 1.46 feet = 17.63 inches, and the platform width is 46 studs = 0.368 meters = 1.20 feet = 14.49 inches. Also, the three umbilical (located on the base of the platform) can pivot upward to release the rocket during take-off, just like the real one. In addition, you can manually lift up the damper (located at the top of the tower) during take-off, and lock or unlock the rocket so that it has maximum stability in a vertical position. The green control is to go up or down with the elevator, from level 0 (top of the platform) to the sixteenth floor of the crane (in the platform, there is a mechanism to stretch with two elastics the cable which makes a return trip). The blue control is for the gateways rotation during takeoff (at this time, the upper gateway with the white box, pivots to the right while the other 8 gateways are pivoting to the left). The red control is for raising or lowering the hook. The yellow control is for the rotation of the crane on its central axis either to the right or to the left. Notice that all the pipes and fuel lines have been replicated as technically possible on the LEGO model. The tower includes the crew elevator and ways for the crew to work on the rocket and inject fuel. The LEGO version of NASA Saturn V umbilical tower set features the launch tower itself as well as the launch pad.

(UPDATE: building instructions and parts-list are no longer available.) So, if you already have the beautiful #21309 LEGO Ideas NASA Apollo Saturn V, and you would like to make it even more impressive, you can download the parts list and building instructions to make your own NASA Saturn V Launch Umbilical Tower. Now that the project has been shelved, the creators Valerie Roche and Emmanuel Urquieta decided to release the instructions for anyone who would like to build it.

However, due to the sheer size of the tower (almost 3,000 pieces, which is over a 1,000 pieces more than the Saturn V itself), and the fact that it would only appeal to those who bought the #21309 LEGO Ideas NASA Apollo Saturn V already, it just wasn’t the right fit for the LEGO Ideas product line. There has been a lot of anticipation by LEGO fans, hoping that the project will be approved by the LEGO Ideas team.

One of the projects that was effected is the NASA Saturn V Launch Umbilical Tower that was meant to be a companion set for the highly impressive and very popular #21309 LEGO Ideas NASA Apollo Saturn V. As we have discussed the other day (see: LEGO Ideas Latest News & Updates), the LEGO Ideas team recently made a decision to not approve any of the fan-created projects in the latest batch under review.
