World War I Flying Ace

Here we see the WWI Flying Ace, locked in eternal battle with the Red Barron. His trusty Sopwith Camel strains under the maneuvers, but doesn't let him down, and his trusty sidekick Woodstock is by his side. Who will prevail? Well that is the question. Also, is dinner ready yet? A wonderful rendition of Snoopy by Legohaulic.

Scarif Citadel

The Rogue One builds are starting to flood my Flikr photostream (along with a lot of Batman builds)!  One of the most iconic new buildings in the newest Star Wars film is the citadel on the tropical planet of Scariff.  Inside of this structure, the technical readouts of the Empire's battle station are protected along with other important Imperial data files.  This micro version is incredibly accurate, right down to Director Krennic's signature shuttle coming in for a landing on the pad.  Great work Markus19840420!  Hope to see am even bigger one at some point in the future. 

For Better Or For Worse Or For Bananas

Congratulations, this minion couple by car_mp is going to tie the knot. But from the looks of it, the groom is perhaps having second thoughts. This looks a lot like a cake topper, but that would have to be a pretty enormous cake. What I really want to know is where those spiffy chromed 4x4 round plates.

NCS "Sobriety"

Yes, Febrovary is here, time to explore other planets. And when it's time to hit the craters, Benny likes to do it in style. In this beauty by Priovit70 he can do that, and keep superior traction with it's four independent tracks. Not only that, but according to the specs this thing has a whopping 5000 horses! I think it's a good thing sound doesn't travel in a vacuum.

S.H.A.D.O. Mobile Evo

For those that are familiar with it, you know that UFO was a pretty cool series. It had awesome vehicles, gripping action (eventually), groovy hairdos and one of the best themes ever. It didn't get much airplay in the US, but I was always a Gerry Anderson fan, and when it was on, I was watching. So this excellent S.H.A.D.O mobile evo from Norton74 gives me the warm fuzzies.

Icebreaker

Being from the central coast of California, maritime ice management is not really in my wheelhouse. So I found the description of this build, or more the organization that inspired it, fascinating. Adam Dodge built this to celebrate Canada's 150th birthday, and the Canadian Coast Guard, who not only provide ice breaking services for commercial ships, but also escorts, harbour breakouts, maintain shipping routes and provide ice information services.

Diggin' Dinos

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.

Vinochope

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. 

Let The World Know You've Got The Chops

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.

DART

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?).

Aegnor ZP41352

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.

The Battle Begins!

It's hard to believe it's been almost a year since the last Iron Builder, but a new season is here and a new battle has begun. This time around it's cmaddison against CeciΙie, and it's going to be a good fight. The seed part is the 2x3 tile with angle, in three colors! This should mix things up. 

It's your Last Chance!

Gotham City Without Batman

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.

Game On!

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!

A Pair Of Archers

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.

Birdemic: Shock And Terror - The LEGO Edition

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.

Optimal Optimus

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.

Dumbledore The Gray?

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.
