Gundam Fever

I have some alarming news, builder Orion Pax has caught Gundam fever. Although little is known about this disease it would appear the only way to treat it is to build some amazing mechs. I think he'll get better though, if these MOCs are any indication. Check out his website for a ton more pictures of this amazing build.

Mobile Suit Gundam RX-78-2 PAX

Update: Alex was kind enough to provide me with an exclusive pic of some Gundam jewelry he's built as a companion piece. Feast your eyes on this serious bling.

MS Girl: Tantive IV Gundam 2

OK, bear with me here, this takes a little explanation. There's this Gundam sub-theme where you imagine cute anime girls wearing your favorite mobile suit as armor. But Kevin Ryhal has taken this to the next level by going Star Wars with it. So this is an anime version of Leia wearing the Tantive IV as armor, get it? And if that's all just too much to wrap your head around, hey look cleavage!

Vocaloid Bricks

I'm a drummer. Well, I guess I need to elaborate on that. I have a Roland electronic drum set, and I make noise with it on occasion. It's actually been a while, but I'm seriously considering moving it to my new studio where I can rock out with my headphones on. So the first thing that I noticed from this awesome MOC and pic by MikeVD was the drum set. But the whole thing just rocks.

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.

Kaneda's Bike

The Arvo Brothers are back and what a return it is. As though it wasn't enough to thrill us with their recreation of Kaneda's bike from the anime classic Akira, but they have more news as well. Apparently they meticulously documented the creation of this MOC and are going to release a book about it soon! With die-cut decals included no less! Until then we can just stare and drool.
