The Golden Gate

It's the most recognized bridge in the world, one of the top 10 tourist destinations on earth, and it gives me no small sense of pride that it's in my home state of California. Now it's a gorgeous MOC that spans over 12 feet. I have to confess I am a bit jealous of attendees of BrickUniverse this weekend in Raleigh NC who get to see this stunning work by builder Rocco Buttliere in person. Click through for many more pictures and loads of information and history on the bridge, it's truly a labor of love.

Tadano Mobile Crane

Way back when I built a lot of Technic. Not really my own MOCs, but I did buy a lot of sets, especially the big ones. So I have a somewhat vague idea what went into the engineering behind this behemoth by builder Engineering with ABS. But I'll emphasize vague, because even the largest LEGO produced set pales in comparison to this mechanical marvel. Just check out the specs in the bottom picture, it's really impressive.
