Lego - Set 918 rebuilt in Chrome

Lego set 918 is my all time favourite set. It was released in 1978 as part of the brand new Space Lego line and is compact, cool and very swooshable*. I have rebuilt it in chrome, using custom parts from a few different sellers on Bricklink.

Interesting notes: Lego does make chrome parts (the wing pieces for instance came from a Naboo Fighter from The Phantom Menace).  The other parts I used are chrome plated by the sellers. That means that the pieces are slightly heavier than regular Lego parts (they even 'clink'). They are also a tiny bit thicker than regular Lego, which means that they are slightly harder to click together. That shows how fine Lego's manufacturing tolerances are.

For those who like to buy Lego on Bricklink: these are the main stores selling custom chromed parts:
ChromeBricks
Bricks4All (who also did the custom engraved CR918 bricks)
ChromeBlockCity
TheChromeShop

*Swooshability is the most important characteristic of a good Space Lego set.
