I would genuinely like to see something like this, actually a feet of these, deployed in strategic spots all over my native state. We basically have two times of year in CA (or at least we did) wildfire season, and mudslide season. But since we haven't had any rain in forever, the state is essentially one big tinder pile right now.
I've never played TwinBee. Actually, come to think of it I've never heard of TwinBee. But that's because it had a very late and limited US release, and was retitled RainbowBell for some reason. But really, video game titles are generally pretty silly, it's all about the game play and design. And had I seen a badass mech like this one from rongYIREN on the cover, it would have grabbed my attention.
Chewbacca is one of my favorite Star Wars characters. He's fierce and lovable at the same time, he's mechanically inclined and can fix anything, and when he loses he pulls people's arms out of their sockets. I love this this version by unman, it's got a cartoony flair that suits him.
This is a heck of an alternate model. Most of the time alternate models are somewhat lamer versions of the main model (at least to me), but this steampunk mechanical owl alternate to the series 5 Mixels far surpasses any of those models. Nice work Legomichiiiiii.
Humans have engineered quite a staggering number of ways of inflicting harm on other humans. And of course, they've also come up with an almost equal number of ways to prevent such harm. Here's both in one excellent MOC by One More Brick. One long jabby thing to make holes in someone, and some really uncomfortable accessories to prevent such holes.
Here's a sleek neo classic space beauty from builder and phenomenal photographer agaethon29. I've been admiring his photography for over a year, and he may not build very often, but when he does...wow! This is like the illegitimate love child of the Galaxy Explorer and the Moonbase Interceptor, and I love it.
I'm not ashamed to admit I'm a Pirates of the Caribbean fan (well, except maybe the third movie, that was a bit of a mess) and I'm downright proud to say I worked on POTC: On Stranger Tides. But in my opinion the first one is still the best one, and this MOC by vitreolum is one of the best scenes. There's a ton of detail packed into this little diorama, but not so much it's overly complicated. Like Will and Jack, it's perfectly balanced.
I find myself conflicted on this this MOC by cecilihf. My dislike of the prequels is well documented, and this is from Episode II. But it's one of the better scenes in my opinion, if for no other reason than it's such a novel location. I'm a big fan of diners too, I probably get that from my grandpa Chet, he lived in diners. As a MOC, it's a fantastic build, with clean lines and clever techniques. If it wasn't populated by silly, over exaggerated CGI aliens, I would totally eat here.
Like I said a couple days ago, I was supposed to be at Disneyland last weekend, and I've been pouting about it for three days. But this outstanding MOC put a smile on my face. I love Mickey Mouse, especially a retro "pie eye" Mickey like this one from my friend Bill Volbrecht.
I've always really hoped mechs would become a reality in my lifetime. With the recent sword rattling of robot builders in America and Japan, I think we're starting to make progress. I just want to see one of these giant robots in action, or even just step into a hangar like this awesome one by builder Benjamin Cheh and see one of these beasts in person, what a sight it will be.
If you knew what was going on in the kitchens at a great many restaurants you simply wouldn't eat there. In fact, you probably wouldn't set foot in the door. Luckily they are the exception (I keep telling myself that, I want to believe) but builder MinifigNick has a MOC of one of the places you don't want to be, before and after the arrival of the health inspector. I think I'll cook at home tonight.
It took me a second to find the seed part in this latest Iron Builder MOC from One More Brick. And then after I spotted them, it took me another second to figure out how he built with them in this way. Not to mention the fact that from a thumbnail, you'd pass right over this picture, thinking it was real. That all adds up to a pretty impressive MOC.
I was supposed to be at Disneyland this weekend, but I'm not (very sad face). But if I were, we'd be waiting not-so-patiently for the fireworks. I the mean time I'm sure we'd get a Dole whip, probably ride Pirates and Mansion, and maybe if the crowds aren't bad wait in line for Peter Pan. And of course we'd get to see Captain Hook and Tick Tock in their eternal struggle. Luckily i've got this fabulous MOC by 'rolli to give me just a little dose of Disney magic.
It is always an absolute pleasure to see a character rendered with such accuracy and passion as this fantastic Cogsworth. And trust me it's not easy to build likenesses, even cartoony ones, but Swan Dutchman makes it seem effortless. And now my favorite duo from Beauty and the Beast are together, as it should be.
Builder m_o_n_k_e_y is back with another fantabulous robot MOC. Meet REDHED, built between bottles and diapers (new babies certainly keep you on your toes) and ready for action. That's perhaps what I enjoy most about Aaron's creations, they look functional and always seem to be ready to leap off the screen. A great balance of practicality and aesthetic.
I'm old. I'm really old. But at least I still have vivid memories of seeing Star Wars in the theater (like every weekend for a year, plus many viewings during the summer, lost count). But the inevitable march of time means that everyone and everything involved in my favorite movie of all time is also aging. And Han & Leia are no exception as imagined by Pepa Quin.
This is like a video game or fantasy movie that just hasn't been made yet. Builder Amida Na has crafted not only a collection of fantastic characters but has also developed those characters with back story and personality. Click through to see just who these wonderful characters (and more) are and get to know them a little better.
I love this, for a few reasons actually. First of course it's Star Wars original trilogy, so that's pretty much an automatic. Second, I can appreciate how difficult it was to do, lighting and photographing a super dark set with dark figures is really hard. And lastly, it's just a damn good shot, great lighting, great editing and great composition. Nicely done Andrew JN!
It's not easy being a LEGO Community Manager. There's all the phone calls, travel and email. There's the continual complaining from the whiny AFOL community. And if one more person asks about monorail track, someone's gonna get hurt. Well builder Si-MOCs understands this anguish, and gave Kevin Hinkle a mighty hammer to wield, and wield it he did.
The discerning gentleman prefers to travel in style and comfort, surrounded by his favorite things. Perhaps those things are burled walnut, fine grade leather and a superior sound system. Then again maybe those things are a ridiculous sound system, a harness suspension system and a FLAME THROWING GUITAR! Builder Pepa Quin seems to prefer the later.
