Here is a MOC build for the LEGO SPACE lovers amongst you! I made a MOC build of a black SPACE backdrop with LEGO plates. Can be used with LEGO Space themed sets, as a minifigure stand, or even as a piece of SPACE wall art. And how about that beautiful Space Diner GWP moc-up?
Have you seen the new LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 26 – Space yet? I did a full video review of all these great minifigures that got released in May 2024. With so many new SPACE themed sets it was only to be expected that LEGO would bring out a fantastic SPACE themed GWP too, which turned out to be an awesome SPACE Diner set. And this stargazing fanatic also made an extra MOC build of a black SPACE backdrop that can be used as a background for your space themed LEGO sets.

Where can I find the MOC instructions for the ‘LEGO black space backdrop?
Sorry, I don’t have them and will not make a file for it either. It is so simple to make because you only use black 6×8 plates and connect them at the back with e.g. 2×6, 2×8, 2×10 or even 2×12 plates. On the front (dark)side you can use several black plates or tiles to fortify the backdrop, or even use the stars printed display stands from the CMF#26 minifigures! Add any planets or colour elements as you desire, but the basis is there.
The diner however is no longer available as a gift with purchase, but here are the details if you still want to look for it online:
