cmaddison's quest for the Iron Builder throne continues with this wonderful little diorama depicting a paleontological dig in some arid location. The discovery is a hapless stegosaurus it would appear. Bad luck for the dino some 65 million years ago, good luck for the scientists who have found what looks to be a rare complete fossilized skeleton.
Jimmy from JBF Creations just wrapped up his first exhibition at Vinochope in Perpignan, France. We've already featured several of the pieces from this show, how can you go wrong blending wine, beer, yummy snacks and LEGO? As a thank you he created this brilliant reproduction of their logo, which I'm sure will be proudly displayed in the shop.
Those fine humans at Tee Fury have another brick themed shirt for you to adorn the upper half of your body with. Well, who am I to determine how you use a T-shirt? You go right ahead and wear it any way you like. But act quick, it'll be gone in less than 24 hours.
Well isn't this a lovely little bit of neo classic space yumminess? This is the DART, a single seat starfighter by builder Bricking It. The craft is sleek and fast looking, with an excellent balance of the classic color combinations. And the underside is a greeble fan's dream (and really, who can resist the greebs?).
It might have an awkward name, but it's a graceful craft. This is the Aegnor ZP41352 by builder Faber Mandragora. According to the builder it's a spaceship of the colonial marines used to patrol the stratosphere, but also for quick raids. But despite it's military origins, it's a beautiful and elegant ship. Some excellent photography and editing here, a very striking image.

This is a little high concept, but very cool (and hey, it's Batman). The overall shape here represents a flower vase. In the vase itself is several scenes of Batman and Robin taking time off with some distractions. Above that is Gotham, with it's classic city graphics. The outstretched hands represent the people of Gotham, calling out for Batman. And the "flowers" are obviously bat signals. A pretty stunning piece by Vincent's LEGO Creation.
Another round of the Iron Builder has begun! This round, the interesting element the builders must use is that new modified 2x3 tile that looks like a shield. Cecilie Fritzvold, one of two contestants, has created this awesome game controller as the first build of the competition. Not only is this truly well designed, but it really makes me want to start gaming! What would you play with this controller? Final Fantasy? Battlefront? The choice is yours!
Well, I don't know if "archer" properly describes either, but they both use arrows. This is Legolas of the Woodland Realm, and Daryl Dixon, of...somewhere in the south. They are the latest of a collection of ironic duos from builder Legohaulic. Legolas is an elf, son of Thranduil, King of the Woodland Realm, and one of the Fellowship of the Ring. He is a loyal companion and was instrumental in the downfall of Sauron. Daryl kills zombies.
Something that you might not know about me is my love of bad movies. Not just films that are poorly made, but those movies that are so bad, but made with such earnestness and passion, that somehow they've gone past awful and ended up good again. I'm a huge fan of Mystery Science Theater 3000 and RiffTrax, and they're unique take on the bad movie shared experience. When I heard that RiffTrax was having a contest inviting people to recreate some moments from James Nguyen films, I knew just what had to be done.
Please note, this is awful, just like the film that inspired it, you've been warned.
Some MOCs are worth the wait. It took builder ogelpeace1 a year to build this Optimus Prime from Transformers, but it was time well spent. Not only does it have all the right looks and pose-ability, it can transform. Check out the video to see this in action.
Harry Potter never laid eyes on The One Ring, and Albus Dumbledore never entrusted a hobbit to do anything. Although a mashup between these two classic worlds could be a very cool thing. Imagine the construction of Hogwarts being interrupted by a warg attack, or the four founders hosting a feast with Elrond. Another fantastic pair of character busts by Legohaulic.
I've always wanted to see one of these man-made wonders in person, there's just not that much heavy mining on the central coast of California (but you know, I'm fine with that too). It's just staggering to me that we can make such colossal machines, and that they work. It's also staggering to me that we can build such colossal recreations of these machines in brick, as builder Beat Felber has done here. Not only is it big, beautiful and beefy, it's remote controlled with S-Brick and Power Functions. And check out those custom wheels!
Jabba really doesn't like being threatened or told what to do. We saw what happened to Luke, and he was being pretty nice about it, even offered a gift (well, not really, it was all a trick). And rancors are always hungry, if not a little misunderstood, so Luke had his hands full after getting dropped. All this action is laid out in this excellent two story MOC of Jabba's palace by builder Martin Harris, where every scene can be recreated (and pretty much has in his photostream, check it out). Now I wanna watch Jedi...mmmm, slave Leia....
Starting February off with a firey creation here on BrickNerd. With all the rapid technological advances, even hellish demons need an upgrade. Jokes aside, this super hot mech created by Moko will singe the hair right off your eyebrows if you zoom in too closely. There are so many beautiful translucent red, yellow, and orange colors mixed together to give the intimidating appearance you see before you. I've never seen anything quite like this model. It is evident that this new design seems to be a clear contrast of Moko's previous Crystalon machine. Personally, I like the fire mech more, so I guess I'm officially a hot head.
I've played mahjong a lot, sadly it's only been on my phone, by myself. I've never even actually seen a proper mahjong set, and I've certainly never played with another human. Judging by the sheer joy inherent in this MOC by MikeVD, I'm missing out. Perhaps it's about time I take the steps needed to make this happen in real life.
Great Scott! Builder Legohaulic has shared another pair of ironic busts. This time around it's the 11th Doctor from Doctor Who and Doc Brown from Back To The Future. Talk about the ultimate timey wimey mashup, a time traveller and a time lord! They're expressions say it all though, this time and space stuff is not for the faint of heart
FebRovary is here, and builder ZCerberus is back with an ultra-flexible and humungous neo classic space offering. This is the M.C.V.P, or Mego Core Vehicle Platform, a multi-use, reconfigurable lunar vehicle with a multitude of variants. Here you see it in a couple of configurations, including a BrickNerd exclusive double ion cannon and twin phased pulse rail gun mode. Check out more configurations and the whole story on Eurobricks.
What a cool shot! Ordo just composed a well executed scene that could have come directly from an official LEGO movie! Apart from having a cool new speeder design, the builder chose to create a Coruscant-like cityscape to act as a nice background, really making this MOC look like a film sequence. I just think it's a well designed set for these figures, especially with that secondary speeder in the background. It would be nice to see more creations like this!
