Holiday Block Toy Challenge

HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHHAHHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

oh wait this is a public post this time um...

Anyways!

The end-of-year holidays be upon us!
Maybe Christmas, maybe New Years (technically beginning of year, but whatever shut up), maybe that Jewish thing with the cool candle holder, or maybe something else I'm not worldly enough to know about!

So, to celebrate this joyous(?) occasion (and to distract myself from the loss of my ability to play SP in any meaningful capacity) I'll be holding this MAGNIFICENT challenge you see before you!

How does it work?

Well, uh...

Um...

Ooh! I know!

Your challenge is to construct a thing out of exclusively blocks, rotators, and the legally required cockpit!

"But Grain," you may be asking ("may" depending on whether or not you remember my name), "how are we to make a functioning plane without engines or wings?"

Well, the answer to that is simple:
You don't.

See, to keep this lighthearted and unique, you'll be making a toy model of whatever it is you choose to build. You may use blocks (hard or normal) and rotators (full size only) with a sum(Throttle) input, meaning the only motion it'll be capable of is a few parts slowly turning and that's all - think of it like a self-powered wind-up toy!
You may not use the Transform tool or part connections to achieve anything that cannot be done through basic placing, understood?

Now good luck and OOOH NO THEY'RE BACK THE GODS OF THE INNER REALMS THE SPACES THE VOIDS THE SPIRITS OF THE GLYPHS HIDDEN IN MY FLESH WHICCH I DO NOT HAVE OH THE SPACES THE SPACES THE RUNES THEY ARE FAR BEYOND WHAT I CAN FATHOM OOOOH SPARE ME I SHALL BRING YOUR FLFLESH FRESH AND UNTAINED BY FORMER RITUAL (ignoring the anguish ritual, no takebacks) AND YOU SHALL FEAST FOREVER! YOU SHALL TASTE THE BLOOD OF THE MAN-FOX OR MARK MY WORDS I SHALLL DIE TRYING OH LORDS OH LORDS OH LORDS OF THE RUNE! SPARE ME!

    There's a forum too, if that's worth anything at all to someone already here.
    I mean, it has bits of its own. But not crumbs! Those are here.
    Bits there, crumbs here, and somewhere in between I seem to have dropped my common sense. I'm sure it'll turn up sometime.

    To add, since I couldn't fit it in the original post (and it'd wreck my bit to add content after the fact):
    You may paint however you wish, HOWEVER any Rotator blocks you may use MUST be single-colour only! They are functional, not decorative! You may not use them as textures!
    Also, it should go without saying, but XML modding is not allowed beyond making rotators into spinning motors (which must be done with sum(Throttle) as the sole input). There's simply no need.

    Edit: You may also use free-spinning rotators if you so wish.

    Grading is basically the same as the last challenge:

    Oh. Yeah. Criteria.
    Basically just make something cool. Not super strict or anything, whatever I like most wins.
    Rewards are in the same vein as the previous challenge.
    Assuming this one actually gets participants this time.
    Anyhow, I'm gonna give the deadline of... Hm, the [25]th of [December]? May be subject to change, we'll see.
    One more thing. As in the previous challenge:

    Submissions can be done either through successor posts, or by hyperlinking it in the comments of this post. So long as I can easily access it for judgement.

    I consider it cheap to use a challenge to get points via others' work, so as long as I can easily access the submission it'll be considered valid.

    As are rewards:

    The deadline I'm pulling out of my nonexistence ass is... December [25]? Idk. Depends if I get any submissions, and if so how many. And how busy I am. etc. etc.
    Oh, and as for rewards:

    1st: 10 upvotes, may be exchanged for three spotlights

    (if I forget, harp on me)

    2st: 7 upvotes, or alternatively 2 spotlights

    3nd: 4 upvotes, or a spotlight and a "good job, baby" on whatever post you choose. Yes, I know, it's a bit usual for the best reward to be for third place but I am a generous god.
    All accepted submissions: an upvote, maybe tagging some of my affluent friends if I find it funny or excellent enough.
    NOTE: I reserve the right to reject a submission for any reason, whether it be its content (do not give the jet car tits), troubles with the person submitting it (chances are you know who you are), or some other thing. Probably won't happen to you, though. Leaving this here as a "just in case" point.

    Yes, this is slated to end December 25. Get to it!
