Ivy

Soul Caliber was probably my favorite game on the Dreamcast (oh, how we miss you Dreamcast). Many many happy hours were spent pummeling opponents in that game. One of the stand out characters was Ivy, not only for her amazing segmented whip sword, but of course for her costume and her figure (yes, totally silly, and clearly designed by a man). But she could certainly deliver some punishment. This Iron Builder inspired rendition by Pepa Quin is instantly recognizable.

I'm not a huge gun fan, nor have I ever played Titanfall, but this Smart Pistol MK5 by Nick Brick caught my eye. I don't know how accurate it is, there seems to be a bit of a lack of reference images, but I think that's even more impressive if a good percentage of this is extrapolated. And you all know I can't resist a good LEGO Prop.

UPDATE: Nick Brick assures me that it's accurate. He also pointed out that the game isn't out yet (so I have a great excuse for not having played it yet)

Warrior Rose, Graceful Valkyrie

There are a lot of games I haven't played. Honestly I don't get to play much of anything anymore (stupid adult responsibilities) and the popularity of some games honestly baffles me. But not as much as the titles for some games (and characters). This is Warrior Rose, Graceful Valkyrie (huh?) from the game Puzzle & Dragons (double huh?). That aside, this is an excellent MOC from MikeVd. I especially like the shield and the use of the sprue from the leaf parts as a detail.

I remember being a bit fascinated by combat and survival knives in high school. I even had one with a camo grip and nifty compass on the end. I still have a very nice Buck my brother gave me that I don't camp without. It's not as cool as this Halo combat by Pink Stormtrooper though. Not so much for being a knife, but for being a knife built this nice out of LEGO. Sure you can't slice potatoes with it, but who cares?

Fallout: New Toronto

Having not played Fallout I'm a bit lost as far as what's going on here. But I don't have to have the game experience to see I missed something else big and brilliant at Brickfair and Brickfete. This is a collaborative build between Si-Mocs and NightHawk, and a powerful duo they make. I think my favorite detail is the Airstream trailer, but I'm a sucker for those.

RAMPAGE!

I'm a kid of the 80's. Part of the generation that played PONG, wore parachute pants and dumped countless quarters into arcade machines. A somewhat later arrival to the 8-bit game revolution was this game, Rampage. It was the first game I know of where you scored points for not only smashing the crap out of everything, but even eating those pesky humans. Good times, good times.
