Gremlin Tank

I couldn't decide if this was more awesome, or more deadly looking. Then I realized that those terms didn't have to be mutually exclusive. Then I thought maybe I'd combine the terms, but  realized that both "deadsome" and "awesly" both sound stupid. So I decided to make up a new word for it, and after much thought I hereby declare this amazing MOC by Lego Junkie "threatacular". You're welcome.

Mitgardian Trade

This is one of those MOCs that seems simple at first, and then surprises you, then continues to draw you in. The detail seems minimalistic at first, then you realize you've just not really looked. The shapes seem almost crude, then you realize it's because they're effortless. Nice work Gideon.

Magnetic Drill

This excellent bit of machinery comes from Gilcélio, who is presently battling it out with Lego Junkie in the latest Iron Builder. I've never used this particular device, but I'd swear from a thumbnail it was a actual tool and not LEGO.

Visual Poetry

This is a feast for the eyes and the soul, T. S. Eliot's immortal words and McBricker's brilliant build. Combine both with beautiful composition and you have a trifecta. Just gorgeous.

The Sorcerer's Apprentice

No trip to Disneyland is complete without a parade. Either one that you've camped out for on Main Street, or the one that you didn't plan on blocking your access to Tomorrowland. This Fantasia float by Brickbaron isn't actually based on a real float, but you wouldn't know it. I can totally see this cruising around the hub while some poor cast members bake in the sun and dance on the deck.

Midi Frame

Everyone seems as excited by the new balljoint elements as I am. Both the new Chima Legend Beasts and Mixels are loaded with them, and all in reasonably priced sets. MacLane celebrated these new awesome parts by building this fairly simple, but completely slick humanoid frame. It's just aching to be animated.

Oak Shredder

I don't know what goblins and orcs have against trees, but I have to admire their ingenuity, and their steampunky aesthetics. The Oak Shredder is clearly quite the labor saving device. And not only does it make quick work of whatever trees are around, it looks like a blast to drive. Nice work captainsmog.

Gronckle

One of the best things about How To Train Your Dragon was the design diversity of the dragons themselves. This is one of my favorites, the gronckle. There's something about his bumblebee proportions and goofy demeanor that just appeals to me. This version by Stormbringer captures him perfectly.

Intergalactic Laundry Day

The laundering and ironing of clothes has long been the bane of human existence. The endless cycle of dirtying and washing your daily apparel nearly falls under the definition of insanity. Short of hiring a maid, it is a task you cannot escape. Perhaps someday Rodney the Robot will become a reality and we can live our days with a bit more sanity.

Mary Crisp Miss

I am continually amazed at what some builders can do with Bionicle and Hero Factory. Take this mind-blowing dragon by origamiguy1971, I can honestly say that the potential of these parts was lost on me, and I own a fair number of them. 

He Who Draws The Sword From The Stone, He Shall Be King

I am irresistibly drawn to this MOC by Gilcélio. John Boorman's Excalibur is one of my favorite movies, I was married at the Excalibur and I really dig a good MOC. Don't you want to just reach in there and try and pull it?

It's On Like Donkey Kong

If you haven't already noticed, there's another Iron Builder raging on Flickr. This bout pits Lego Junkie against Gilcélio and the part is the 1x4 double curved slope. Both builders have already thrown down the gauntlet and this is sure to be a contest for the ages.

Pixel America

This intriguing piece by Silva Vasil is inspired by the Pixelomic project by Dusan Cezek. I can't decide which is cooler, animated in 8-bit, or physical in bricks. It actually reminds me of the excellent game aesthetics of Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery.

Brick Lickin' Good

I've done a decent amount of world traveling, and one that that always amazes me (besides the cost of LEGO) is American fast food is EVERYWHERE. I was stunned at the number of Subways and KFCs in the UK. But I suppose it was a little taste of home when I needed it. This combo meal with a toy by M1di appears to have just as much nutritional value as well, and is way more awesome.

Creepin'

Day 2: I've survived my first night on the island. Luckily I was able to construct a suitable shelter with the crude implements at my disposal. I heard a great many creatures outside so I was quite happy to be in the confines of my small dirt dwelling. Now that the sun is coming up I think I'll do a little...what's that hissing sound?

The Nautilus

I'm as big a Disney nerd as I am a LEGO nerd, and I've always liked the aesthetics and design of Nemo's submarine from 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea. This was steampunk before anyone knew what steampunk was. Orion Pax does this classic justice with an jaw-dropping build, friggin' awesome. Check out his website for more pictures.

Strindberg Estate

Since I can't read German I've never really figured out what the Brick Time Team is all about. But I know they build amazing MOCs. This estate is fabulous, and if I ever get back to Europe, I look forward to seeing some stunning architecture like this. In the mean time I'm content to gawk at it in brick form.

Space Exploration Rover

Some builders build for hyper detail while others build for simplicity. There are very few who can pull off both styles as well as Kosmas Santosa. Kosmas continues to impresses us with his NASA Space Exploration Rover. The rover features fluid almost effortless design, implementation and photo editing.

Chopper

It is no secret I'm a Star Wars nerd, I make no attempt to hide it. So with every new project out there my interest is at least a little piqued. I'm mostly an original trilogy fan, but some stuff in the expanded universe intrigues me, and I'm watching the development of Star Wars: Rebels with interest. This squat little grumpy guy seems pretty awesome. This version was built for the Nuremberg Toy Fair

TRENCH®

Like marcosbessa, the builder of this beautiful MOC, I've never played TRENCH, but I find the design fascinating and lovely. And this LEGO interpretation of the game is equally so. The construction of this is so clean, so precise, it's more art than game.
