Warner Brothers cartoons were a staple of my kid diet (those and Chick-O-Sticks) so it pleases me to no end to see these classic characters built in brick. This is Pepa Quin's SIXTEENTH entry into Iron Builder (how do these guys do it?)
I love a good MOC with animation. Check out this DaVinci flying machine by True Dimensions. It not only has great aesthetics, the motion is great. The best part is you can build your own because True Dimensions has shared instructions on his website. You can also support it on Cuusoo.
MikeVd is back with another brilliant manga MOC, and once again I have no idea who it is or where she's from. A quick Google search has left me even more baffled, having no experience with battle ships personified as big eyed girls. I'll just stick with admiring this MOC, she's a beauty.

If I had a dollar for every time I spotted a Russian folklore inspired steampunk walking battle ready chicken hut...well, I could almost afford a Big Gulp. This whimsical and charming MOC by Dwalin Forkbeard is just that, and while a little difficult to wrap your head around, it's not hard to appreciate clever building and fun design.
What we have here is one sleek-looking, crimson beauty. I mean seriously, look at this thing! It would be amazing in any color, but is even more so in the rare LEGO dark red. The build is chock full of great little details including foot pedals, shifter, and a fully modeled engine under the hood.
They just don't make cars like this anymore.
I dropped many a quarter into various pinball machines in my past, but the machines that took the most of my hard earned coins were always the Star Wars themed machines. So this MOC by 6kyubi6 makes me very happy. And this doesn't just look awesome, it's totally playable and has lights!. Check out the video after the jump.
Here's a 'fab' mashup by qi_tah, The Shire and Fabuland. As if Hobbiton wasn't inviting enough, with the addition of Fabuland characters and charm, it's absolutely irresistible. I wish I had been able to see this in person at Brickvention.
This MOC by nate_daly is actually a few months old, but these new pictures really show off how awesome it truly is. There's so much to love and detail everywhere on this figure. I think my favorite part use is the Technic bumper bricks on the shoulders, inspired.
I'm a fan of Lord Of The Rings. And while many fans took some offense or were at least disappointed when Tom Bombadil didn't make the cut in Peter Jackson's epic trilogy I have to admit I didn't care. It's always struck me as sort of superfluous and odd part of the book. But perhaps if I had seen this charming MOC by Sergeant Chipmunk I would have had a clearer picture in my head. Then again, there's those songs...
This MOC by Mitah Val Karem depicts elves retrieving a secret cache of weapons in the middle of the forest. The cutaway sides revealing the action below is really cool, but what caught my eye was the tree. Mitah uses click hinges and barbs to great effect here.
Space and Castle, two of the most iconic LEGO themes ever created, have always been in stark contrast with each other. Space has been about squeaky clean starships with smooth lines and rocket boosters. Castle, on the other hand, has focused on the nitty gritty sword-and-sorcery struggle between the king and his subjects against some evil faction bent on their destruction. The two have never been crossed before. That is until today! Paul Vermeesch has rocketed the castle theme from planet earth and dropped it on some unknown planet creating a vision of what late-middle-ages on an alien planet would look like.
Brace yourselves. What do you get when you combine an awesome concept artist, with an awesome movie, with an awesome visual effect studio, with an awesome LEGO designer, with an awesome AFOL? You get this, the spinner from Blade Runner, designed by Syd Mead, realized by ILM, built in Technic by LEGO's Jørgen Thomsen and reverse engineered by BrickJournal's own Joe Meno.
In the 1865 novel by Jules Vern, From the Earth to the Moon, three gun fanatics plot the feasibility of being shot to the moon from a massive cannon. Not the brightest idea I suppose, but their meeting does provide a great set piece for Pippo Zane's latest build, The Gun Club. The creation itself is just bristling with details of a mid-1800s library/smoking room that is one far cry from the NASA command center of today.
Because judging by the matchup here, I'm assuming that's where this is going. Talk about double trouble, Mark of Falworth has crafted a serious little situation here. It kind of reminds me of a camp counseling team I experienced in 6th grade, those ladies wanted us dead.
When Inspector Gadget was reaching the peak of his popularity I'm afraid I was a bit old for cartoons (if that's really possible). What's funny is when I see him what pops into my head is Doug E Fresh. But now I want to flip the whole thing on it's head and when I hear Doug E Fresh I'll think of this outstanding MOC by Orion Pax. Check out his website for a full gallery.
Moko is back with yet another stunning MOC. This is KANTAM ROBO from the very popular Crayon Shinchan. Moko has a way of finding shapes and contouring I find mysterious and wonderful. He packs in detail without overbuilding, and minimizes clutter without underbuilding. And check out those launching fists!
Bricksonwheels is by far one of the best vehicle builders out there and never fails to please with his various trucks and motorcycles. His latest Peterbilt 362 is one amazing blast from the 80s that fits right in with the best of his creations. Look closely and you'll notice well thought-out details like the door handles, mud flaps and foot steps.
I know Bionicle and Hero Factory doesn't get much love on this blog, I have no excuse. But this series of figures and background story caught my eye. This is a fantasy middle age series called Hyde by Thirdeye88. I love the aesthetic of these, I really want to see some more creative photography of them, they tell a story.
This is beautiful. Here in California we don't see much of this classic Cape Cod architectural style, which has always made it seem just a bit more exotic for me. Everything here is spanish tiles and stucco. The building even more impressive with a lovely finished interior. I want to vacation here.
