Live On Stage...
/This Iron Builder is starting to heat up. This entry by Brickthing is absolutely amazing. Not only from a building standpoint, but this is some top notch MOC photography. Well played sir, well played.
Who?
/You remember Mr. Owl? The one who taught us how many licks to the center of Tootsie Pop? Well, he cheated, turns out it's not three. Thankfully this isn't Mr. Owl, so I won't have to avenge my friend's broken tooth. Nice work mihaimariusmihu.
1Up!
/Being a long-time Nintendo fan these MOCs by dm_meister make me smile. Who can forget the thrill of scoring a mushroom and getting an extra life, slightly increasing your odds of getting to Bowser. Only then to get your butt handed to you by the boss.
Micropolis Hotel
/Micro buildings always catch my eye. There's something so captivating about them, especially when they're done well. Like this hotel from Lupinzar. Per request of the artist, please whistle or hum "The Girl From Ipanema" while viewing this post.
Oh Great, Cthulhu's Out
/I saw this amazing MOC in person at BrickCon, and again recently on Tested. I'm happy it's finally been photographed properly so can share it all with you. Behold Cthulhu, by the great Carlmerriam . This is serious out-of-the-box and next level building, love it.
One Small Step...
/I've always been a great admirer of the US space program. My first memory is sitting on my dad's lap, watching a NASA mission unfold on TV. We always wanted to go watch a shuttle launch together, but sadly he passed away before we ever got the chance. He was also very patriotic, and I see his smile in every US flag I look at. Thanks Legohaulic, I love this MOC and I know my dad would have too.
Viper
/
I don't know why, but I found myself reminiscing about classic Battlestar Galactica this morning. Yes, it was pretty bad, but it was a heck of a lot better than Buck Rogers (except perhaps for Colonel Deering, rawr) and I always thought Daggit was cool. I never watched the new series, but I like the ships. This Viper by onesendai2600 is one of my favorites.
Oasis Encounter
/Last week while driving in LA I spotted a guy stuck on Lincoln Blvd actually using a hookah in his car, today I see one brick-built, coincidence? Well, hardly, but this is a cool MOC by Disco86 anyway.
Congratulations!

BrickNerd would like to send a big congratulations to LEGO's own Jan Beyer and his wife on the birth of their baby boy. Woot!
Rainbow Lorikeet
/This beautiful bird sculpture comes to us from qi_tah. With the exception of perhaps fish, birds are the most colorful creatures on the planet, and this MOC captures that perfectly.
Guess Who?
/I love how insanely creative AFOLs can be. Check out this version of the classic game "Guess Who?" Gilcélio has created a version using sig figs of his friends, and it's completely playable. Check out the video!
Geological Survey Mechanoids
/Legoloverman is a master of the pocket-sized robot, just look at these little beauties. Each one of them has a specific job to do, and is customized to do it. Yet, they all look like brothers. Functionality fused with aesthetics, perfect.

Hall Of The Silver Throne
/Digger1221 offers up this lovely throne room, with some delicious details. The brick walls, border work and the throne are great, but my favorite parts are the floor pattern and the candle stands, excellent.
LEGO Minecraft Forced Perspective Mosaic
/At Minecon last weekend LEGO displayed a very cool forced perspective mosaic. Here's a video of it's creation.
Saruman's Orthanc Vic Viper
/This is a awesome mashup, Lord of the Rings meets Space meets Vic Viper. It's Novvember so VVs are showing up all over the place. But this one is so damn clever. I totally want to see more of these, c'mon everybody, licensed VV FTW!
Tigelfáh Castle And Town
/This is a massive and incredible collaborative build by SlyOwl, Kǻrrde, peggyjdb, workshysteve, Invicta Bricks, Malravion, Cuahchic and Derfel Cadarn. It was recently featured at the Great Western LEGO Show at STEAM in Swindon UK. The attention detail and work that went into this is stunning. And with eight different builders, there's tons of pictures to look at. Click through and enjoy!
Holy Competing Comic Hero Batman!
/Ah, the good old climbing the wall gag, classic campy Batman. It's amazing what you can accomplish with simple camera tricks like turning it on it's side. And this is exactly how this cheesy effect was accomplished. Nice photography InkBlotPhoto.
Yeti Cave
/This is a fun little vignette by Praiter Yed depicting a captured hero suspended from the top of an ice cave by a large white creature. His trusty rapier just out of reach. It all seems so familiar...
