6441 Deep Sea Refuge Micro

One of my first sets and all time favourite, that has never spent a lot of time disassembled ( a fate most other sets usually fell victim to when their parts were needed elsewhere )
Probably one of the absolute best sets ever released, because it had so many functions and accessories that didn't require any additions or changes and served as a major learning and inspiration piece for own creations in terms of techniques and ideas.
The X-Ray machine was probably the best ever non-technic function LEGO ever created. That is why this was my main focus for this one. I absolutely had to include this piece of ingenious toy design in my homage to it.
The set is also able to open up exactly as the original, both the roof sections as well as the entire station. Pulling the pin disguised as a seashell will cause the cave to collapse. A lantern piece is used as shark cage, while the shark itself is made of tiny slope pieces above and below the surface.
