Based on the Harley-Davidson V-Rod, Henrik Jensen has created this highly detailed model. Funny, this is the second bike I've posted this week, and other than cherishing my 1982 Honda 50cc minibike, I'm not a big motorcycle guy. But the build quality and realistic proportions in this MOC really caught my eye. Nicely done, Henrik!
Conventions are hectic places. Meeting old and new friends, keeping an eye on the schedule, participating in events and trying to take it all in can get you stressed out in no time. So I stepped away for a few minutes to blog and found this. Can a MOC actually calm you down? This bonsai tree by Powerpig seems to have. Just looking at it made me smile and go "ahhh", and throttle back a bit., which is exactly what I needed.
This is awesome! Builder Titans Creations has crafted the single best Millennium Falcon MOC I've ever seen. Right out of the pages of one of those Amazing Cross-Section books this thing is a wonder of detail. Everywhere you look there is something cool, it's just mind-blowing. It's currently on display at LEGOLAND Malaysia, and I wish I could go see it in person.
Builder gonkius has crafted a thing of beauty here, a fully functional clock with an NXT at it's core. This isn't some fancy trick clock with a motor driving the hands, it's a fully functional clockwork with an escapement and pendulum. It's a wonder of LEGO engineering, and beautifully built, and it's just as gorgeous with it's skin on. Check out the video to see it in action and click through for more pictures.
I'm an early riser, just how I am. Maybe it's being a father, or maybe from being a professional, or maybe my cat just knows when to come sit on my bladder. Whatever it is I don't need an alarm clock, at least not usually. But I know many, many out there do, and the sound they make is enough to give them the heebie jeebies when played back at any hour. This MOC by KOSbricks has one major advantage over real alarm clocks, it doesn't actually make noise, so the temptation to smash it to smithereens shouldn't be a problem.
That's what Genghis Don calls his new GARC racer. For those of you who are unfamiliar with this theme, GARC stands for Galactic Asteroid Rally Circuit. Now, it's common knowledge that the possibility of successfully navigating an asteroid field is approximately three thousand seven hundred and twenty to one. Yeah, yeah, never tell you the odds... But this thing looks pretty fast, so my money's on these guys!
The Datsun 240Z (known as the "Fairlady" on the shores of its home country) is one of the most iconic Japanese sports cars of all time. In his usual inimitable fashion, Tiler has created a version in the brick that is immediately recognizable. Extra kudos on the photography, which is as clean as a Hutt's dinner plate. I take that back - a Hutt would likely eat the plate as well.
He's so SQUISHY!

He is the stuff of legends. Think about it, Boba Fett has been tantalizing us since 1979. First we mailed away to get a figure, just to discover his rocket didn't shoot. Then he became our favorite character with only a couple of lines and brief scenes. Then he was dispatched unceremoniously in the sarlaac pit in Jedi, only to have supposedly escaped in the expanded universe. Then his origin was revealed and his voice changed, what the heck? Regardless, he's still a badass, and everyone loves him, especially builder nobu_tary, who created this awesome MOC.
Yes, this is an awesome model of the bike from the classic anime movie. But what's even MORE awesomer is the fact that it actually works. Yeah, that's right, builder Sariel rigged with power functions! Check out the video highlighting all of the features. Just couldn't believe he let the hamster drive it...
I grew up on Godzilla movies and Toho classics. Where I live we had a thing called the Saturday Morning Film Festival, and while they tended to play movies I wasn't really interested in most of the time (and WAY too much Popeye), every once in a while we'd get treated to some Tokyo stompin' action. So I have an affinity to this big green lizard. And as if this version by legorobo:waka wasn't mind-blowing enough, it also walks, opens his mouth and moves his eyes! Be sure to check out the video below for all the action and a cameo by Mothra.
From the combined creative minds of Phillip K. Dick, Ridley Scott, Greg Jein and Syd Mead and now LEGOLIZE IT MAN comes one of the most iconic and beloved sic-fi vehicles of all time, the Spinner from Bladerunner. Like it's movie model counterpart this one lights up
What better way to celebrate May the Forth than watching a couple of nerds play with LEGO and say stupid things? We're building the Red Five X-Wing Starfighter live starting at 12 noon PST. Join us in the Google+ Hangout!
Yup, it's May the 4th, and Star Wars nerds the world over are celebrating. It makes my geek heart soar that we've all banded together to make this a thing. This isn't Hallmark selling cards, this isn't Walmart selling cheap hats and party blowers, it isn't even Lucasfilm and Disney cashing in. It's fans, like me, just saying "I love Star Wars" in as many ways as they possibly can. This cheese wedge mosaic by hilaryleung is clever and awesome.
Tomorrow is Star Wars Day, and we're going to celebrate by building Luke Skywalker's X-Wing starfighter live! Join me and my guest James Morr at 12 noon PST. It's going to be guaranteed 12-17% more exciting than waiting in line for Star Tours (well, at least the outdoors queue) See you tomorrow!
As we settle in for Star Wars Day Eve (that's a thing, isn't it?) I take a random glance at my Flickr feed and was delighted to discover this, the Friends Star from pricey73! It seems to be the absolute polar opposite of it's Imperial counterpart in all ways with the exception of shape. But really, who would build a giant space station that's shaped like a cube?
If you haven't seen it, Tremors is an awesome movie. It has wit, sarcasm, humor, drama, gritty filmmaking and of course giant subterranean bloodthirsty monsters. Oh, and Kevin Bacon is in it, and everything's better with bacon. In this scene, brilliantly recreated in micro scale by Grantmasters, our cast discovers that there's something very odd going on, and strange creatures are possibly behind it.
Brace yourselves, it's time for another round of Iron Builder. This competition is between two amazing builders, KOS brick and Gilcélio, and it's going to be a good one. Both contestants were quick to the MOCs, and already have the first ones done using the seed part of a 2x2 dark blue dome. It's going to be an interesting month.
“Well, there are two bantha down there but I don’t see any...wait a second, they’re sandpeople alright, I can see one of them now”
Oh chibi form factor, is there anything you can't make cute? This adorable chibi bantha from vitreolum is a little early for Star Wars day, but I'm not complaining. As far as I'm concerned the entire month of May is international Star Wars month. So how are you celebrating?
