Here's something that goes Vroom! This radical hot rod by sm 01 goes by Fire Bucket, and it's pretty badass. The engine details are excellent, the touches of chrome are tasteful and not over done, the flames are tasteful (as far as flames go). And as if that wasn't enough, this bad boy is motorized and has lights! Check out the video below.
Christmas is only 23 days away, so I'd imagine it's full tilt boogie at the north pole right now. And with so many presents for all the good little boys and girls, delivery can get hectic. Now I know there's nine reindeer up there up to the challenge, but I think if Santa's new sleigh (wonderfully recreated here by Milan Sekiz) works out, they can all have a well deserved retirement.
As is usually the case during an Iron Builder competition, we're going to see a bit of a glut from builders Gilcélio and Arkov. Bus as is also the case, it will be epic MOC after epic MOC as these two titans battle it out. Gilcélio is already off to the races, having built 6 entries to date. But a lull from the opponent is usually ended with a jaw dropping entry, we'll just have to wait and see.
Update: It appears that Arkov has had to forfeit this round due to personal reasons. We know he'll be back and send him best wishes as he deals with the matters at hand.
I got a kick out of this MOC. One of my jobs not related to LEGO is supervising stereoscopic (3D) aspects of movies and visual effects. Yes, I get paid to wreck my vision and make artists cry, but it's for the better good and to save your eyes (you're welcome). So to see a really well composed 3D picture of a MOC is quite a treat. To see the 3D here, just cross your eyes to merge the images. Nice work infrapinklizzard!
During the Creations for Charity live stream, builder Iain Heath slammed out this awesome space guy from some trailer from some movie, Star Trek maybe? I dunno. But it turned out pretty good.
That title is a lie, I can't stand sardines. But I love a good build, and this sardine lunch by builder Gilcelio chagas. There's so many cool things here I don't know where to start. Of course the peeling back of the lid is genius, and the sardines with mixels eyes are perfect. But strangely I'm drawn to the most mundane item, the salt and pepper shaker.
Do you suppose less people would be creeped out by bugs if they were steam powered and had adorable little gears and complex mechanisms inside them? One can only suppose, but we can envision that possibility with this brilliant mechanical beetle by Dwalin Forkbeard.
When I first saw this picture by KOS Bricks I thought it was a bit late for Halloween. Then I thought is there really any time of year that we don't like a good zombie reference? Then I thought of all the poor retail workers out there on this black friday. I'm sure a great many of them will feel like this tonight.
When you think of Thanksgiving you probably think of relatives taking up all the parking out front, uncle Larry polishing off the brandy and what the heck is cranberry sauce anyway? Oh, and maybe turkey. For instance Tyrone the turkey, who skates, moves his head, flaps his wings and gobbles thanks to his NXT gizzard!
I do have a weakness for LEGO props. Anytime my Flickr feed fools me with a thumbnail I find it delightful. Now going to the doctor, that's a different story. But I think if he or she used this amazing LEGO equipment by Gilcélio I'd be easier to talk into making a visit
Tomorrow I will break out the Christmas carols for the first time of the year. We usually decorate for Christmas after feasting on Turkey and we'll listen to carols as we do it. Especially fun when I break out the vinyl, since I have all the records we listened to as a child. Back then they were played on a console very similar to this brilliant old school turntable by Yul Burman Karel.
As I always do I must disclose that I'm not a huge Transformers fan. It came along just a bit late for my childhood and the movies are just dumb. But I totally appreciate some awesome building, and this super deformed Optimus Prime from MacLane fits the bill. Now if someone could super deform Shia LaBeouf...
When I was a kid, Spiderman was my favorite super hero (Ironman too, but there were less toys). I have fond memories of racing around the cup-de-sac with my inexplicable Spiderman motorhome with my Mego figure inside. Now nobu_tary has created one of the best MOCs of everyone's favorite web slinger I've ever seen.
I don't know what mythical creature this MOC by Stuart Delahay is inspired by. Nor can I tell you the circumstances which led to this meeting. All I can say is I'm pretty sure the odds are stacked towards the big red guy, just sayin'.
Did you really think it was all patrolling, hunting down bounties and force choking? No! After hours on the death star there's some serious rocking to do. And you haven't lived until you've heard one of Vader's ripping solos. Nice build Julius von Brunk
This thing looks right out of a nightmare. It takes skill to make a Bionicle based MOC look this cool, and even more to make it actually look scary. You can practically hear the roar of this sinister looking winged Makuta from builder Pate-keetongu.
I think it's safe to call Comic Bricks officially a "thing" now. Monsterbricks is back with another excellent cover MOC, this time a classic Batman cover. The dynamic duo look pretty amazing here, and I never thought I'd think that about a MOC featuring Hero Factory parts.
Would you believe this absolutely stunning gingerbread house was built by someone who's never actually had (a situation that needs to be corrected) a gingerbread house? Builder Swan Dutchman confesses to this fact in his description. As the holidays rapidly approach I know we'll have one of these at my house, but I know for a fact it won't be nearly as amazing as this delicious work of art.
Thanks for the head's up Guy
I am irresistibly drawn to the simplicity and form of this image by mihaimariusmihu. As a MOC, it's deceptive in it's complexity, since overall it is mostly silhouetted and doesn't have much surface details. But look at all those converging shapes and angles, this is no small feat. The balance of the image is fantastic too,. While our subject is nearly dead center of frame (a photographic no no) the branches occupy an asymmetric and interesting composition, offering an excellent use of positive and negative space. Also, I'm craving a Tootsie Pop.
My love for all things Nintendo is well documented, so this collaborate series of MOCs from 6Kyubi6, 74louloute and fujiia instantly caught my eye. I haven't played MarioKart in quite some time, but I still have fond memories of playing with my boys (before they were too cool for Nintendo). Now I have to admit I want to go fire up the Wii!
