The Plan

This is outstanding! This Maze overlay by Yatkuu is inspired by my all-time favorite zombie movie, Shaun of the Dead. Now we can recreate "the plan" while fiddling our knobs...wait, that came out wrong. Now we can re-enact the events of the film using hand/eye coordination (made more difficult after a couple pints) and get to the Winchester to wait for all of this to blow over.

Plus points for the Cornetto cameo.

The Happiest Maze On Earth

My wife and I were talking about Disneyland just this morning, and then I happen across this wonder maze overlay by builder Oky - Space Ranger. There's several recognizable rides and attractions here, from Sleeping Beauty's Castle to the Haunted Mansion, and it looks like a magical good time to play. I'm totally OK with the omission of Mickey's Toon Town, but this thing's gonna need a major overhaul when Star Wars land opens.

Factory Frenzy

I knew we could expect some cool custom maze surfaces for the new LEGO Ideas Maze set, but the thought of making a timed game of skill, especially something as cool as this futuristic factory theme from BrickNerd's own Steebles never occurred to me. Watch the video, this thing is pretty awesome. Next step, lights, sounds and triggered actions, somebody get on that.

I used to play with one of these classic toys back when they were made of wood and used metal marbles. Now I get to play with one build from my favorite toys, LEGO bricks.
