I picked up all of Mixels series 3 yesterday, and tomorrow we're going to build them! Join me and Mrs. BrickNerd (my wife Dianna) at 10am PST for some crazy Mixel action.
It will be like waiting for your chance to board a plane, with 100% less CNN.
Join me with my special guests David Pagano and James Morr as we build LEGO 21110 Research Institute as well as LEGO Star Wars 75041 Vulture Droid. And as if that wasn't enough action, immediately following the build I will be doing a live ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. Our good friend Josh at The Brothers Brick as called me out, and I will rise to the challenge. Building starts today at noon PST, with the dowsing happening around 2pm. Join us!
Join Tommy Williamson as he builds LEGO 76023 The Batman Tumbler live!

Update, here's the time lapse...
Building the excellent LEGO Creator MINI Cooper. Guaranteed more exciting than reruns of CSPAN or 1950's bowling championship films.
The Google+ Hangout is started, join us!
We go live at 10am PST
Yes, I've managed to get my grubby little mits on this most iconic of cars, the LEGO Creator MINI Cooper and I'll be building it live tomorrow. What better way to spend the last day of a three day weekend (for those in the US) than hanging out with a bunch of nerds and watching another nerd play with toys!?! Join me and Mrs. BrickNerd tomorrow at 10am PST!
Join me and James Morr (AKA Spastik Chuwawa) as we build the entire series 2 of Mixels. Live from BrickNerd Studios.
I got an early father's day gift from my wife, the entire second wave of Mixels! I thought I might build some or all tonight live.
Google+ Hangout will start at 6pm PST, building will start soon after. Join me!
Join me as I build LEGO Architecture 21020 Trevi Fountain live. It's guaranteed to be at least 14% more exciting than reruns of golf.

Hey LEGO fans, it's time for another Live Build. Tonight I'll be building the LEGO Architecture 21020 Trevi Fountain. It's totally more fun than waiting for the clothes dryer.
The build starts at 8:00pm PST, join me!
We're counting down to 8pm PST to build LEGO 21108 Ghostbusters live. It's totally more fun than folding laundry or filing taxes!
The Google+ Hangout is already started, building starts in just a little while. Join me!
Who you gonna call?
Hey LEGO fans and those with very little to do in the evenings, I've got my grubby little mitts on a Ghostbusters set and I'm going to build it live tonight starting roughly at 8pm PST. Join me!
In part one I only finished about 2/3 of Metalbeard's Sea Cow (hey, it's a big model!) so today I'm going to finish her. Join me live at 9am PST, it will be way better than that meeting you were supposed to be in.
Tune it tomorrow brick fans for Sea Cow 2: Electric Bugaloo. As many of you know, despite the epic length of last week's live build, I was unable to finish Metalbeard's Sea Cow. Well, tomorrow morning at 9am PST I'm going to jump back in and and finish that beast. Join me!
Come hang out with me as I build 70810 Metalbeard's Sea Cow live! It's guaranteed to be at least 12% more exciting than waiting in line to see Else and Anna at Disneyland.
Building starts at 10am PST, join me!
Today we are joined by Katie Walker who shares the steps of creating a LEGO cheese slope mosaic that almost looks like a stained glass window.
What is a LEGO cheese slope and how can you tessellate them to make patterns that dazzle and amaze? This tutorial will teach you everything you need to know about cheese slope mosaics.
Can LEGO Botanical sets be used as “tree battle packs”? Yes! Here’s how to transform 10373 Mini Bonsai Trees into minifig-scale trees for all your MOC needs.
August is here with a fresh selection of LEGO contests and challenges. Don’t miss your chance to build a MOC and maybe even win some awesome LEGO prizes. With Frogust, Paradisa, and even some stop-motion in the mix, there’s plenty of inspiration to start building!
Sometimes the best LEGO projects solve problems nobody actually has. Follow the design of the Kong-o-Matic 2000, a motorized machine that plays LEGO Donkey Kong so you don’t have to!
Now you can build your own iconic upscaled LEGO tree! Instructions are available right here on BrickNerd and in BrickJournal’s most recent issue.
From color palettes to clever part choices, building LEGO Pokémon at minifig scale takes skill and a sharp eye for detail. We chat with Radioactive Cheese about how he brings his Pokédex to life.
