I don't know how I missed this yuletide artillery MOC by nobu_tary when it was originally posted. And while Christmas may be over, the tree is still up, presents are all over the living room and I'm all hopped up on sugar so why not? I didn't realize Santa had a new "weapon" in his arsenal this year, which looks pretty exciting. I suppose the reindeer might have gotten upset for being underutilized, but at least they got a show.
And happy Chanukah to you all. It's a time of celebration, where families come together and warm wishes are shared by all. I wish I could reach out and hug every one of you that visit this little blog on a regular basis, you're my BrickNerd family and I love you all! Santa's already been to our house, my stocking is overflowing. It's time to open presents, eat yummy food and listen to some classic holiday music. Speaking of Santa, check him out in this spiffy new hotrod sleigh by builder Vaionaut! This thing can certainly spread some cheer in a fast way.
The Nightmare Before Christmas is now considered a classic, and a yearly tradition that lasts the entire last part of every year since it spans Halloween to Christmas. I remember seeing the film in the theater, back when Disney had no confidence in it, and we were absolutely blown away with every aspect of it. I am similarly blown away with this MOC by Cesbrick. I must admit when I first saw it, I didn't think it was LEGO, or at least Jack wasn't, but he is. Every aspect of this is spooky good!

Dear Sir,
It has come to our attention that your department has been developing a rocket powered sleigh. Needless to say we find this course of action very disturbing, not just from a safety standpoint but from a tradition standpoint, not to mention the jobs that have been put at risk. We are also very concerned about the noise problem this will pose, and our centuries old policy of silent nights. We feel that this is a irresponsible and reckless waste of resources, especially with the rising need to counter polar cap shrinkage. Your lead developer, Mr. Frost, is incredibly talented, and we feel his energies should be focused elsewhere.
We implore you to stop development immediately. We will not stand for such activity and you can consider this a formal grievance.
Sincerely,
Rudolf M. Jones
Representative, United Reindeer Team Local 525
BrickNerd's very own Nick Sweetman spends a little time every holiday season to make some scenes worthy of Christmas cards (in fact, they become cards courtesy of RedBubble). And with Christmas less than a week away, carols in the background and a chill in the air, I'm feeling pretty darn ready for Santa to visit, and these scenes just add to the cheer and excitement. C'mon December 25th!
....But the fire is so delightful, and since we've no place to go, build LEGO! Build LEGO! Build LEGO! Maybe build a nice holiday-themed diorama, like this one by Firas Abu-Jaber. He's known best for his cars, but I've got a soft spot for LEGO penguins and the one he built here is just adorable.
Christmas is less than two weeks away! I'm eagerly awaiting this guy's visit, although I have no idea how he's going to get my new Toyota Tacoma 4-door into his sleigh. Builder DOGOD Brick Design brings us this wonderful rendition of the world's jolliest old elf, and it's frankly one of the best brick-built Santas I've ever seen.
UPDATE: Not only is this a fantastic rendition of Santa, he's also got a little surprise in the back. He opens up to reveal a charming little scene of Santa enjoying some hot cocoa by the fireplace, brilliant!
Santa! It's Christmas everywhere you look these days, and I love it. This cheerful little scene by builder HCK_1974 has it all, a stunning tree adorned with festive decorations, a snowy lot where all the action is taking place, children and elves having a good time and a couple of adorable oversized reindeer. And of course santa flying by, spreading holiday cheer.
Builder and mechanical wiz JK Brickworks is back with a little kinetic holiday cheer. You may recognize the big guy and his team from set 10245 Santa's Workshop, but you've never seen them move like this. Jason has designed a remarkably low profile mechanical linkage that simulates the flying motion of the real Santa, amazing.
I have it under good authority that with the notable increased need for christmas requests for Star Wars gifts this year Santa has had to upgrade his sleigh to accommodate deliveries. This model by sm 01 was reconstructed from eye witness descriptions of test flights over the Norway. Best of luck Santa! (oh, and by the way, I'd like a remote controlled BB-8).
Our Christmas present to you, a fresh lump of coal in the form of another BrickNerd episode. This episode features a double showcase of Santa's Workshop and The Tumbler.
Christmas is only 23 days away, so I'd imagine it's full tilt boogie at the north pole right now. And with so many presents for all the good little boys and girls, delivery can get hectic. Now I know there's nine reindeer up there up to the challenge, but I think if Santa's new sleigh (wonderfully recreated here by Milan Sekiz) works out, they can all have a well deserved retirement.
I know how you feel Santa, I'm tired too. But tonight's your night, I promise we'll put out some delicious cookies for you. And I've been super good, really! Now, I'd like a Steadicam, some new Canon lenses, a slider dolly, some LED panels, a butterfly frame and black background, some flags, some apple boxes, a junior cart, oh and a LEGO death star, an X-wing...
I really can't get enough of these Brick Sketches by Chris McVeigh. And with Christmas only three days away I'm not sure how Santa had time to pose for this (I guess being in Canada helps for proximity to the north pole?) but I'm glad he did.
Christmas cheer meets elf cruelty in this twisted MOC by dWhisper. I have no explanation and your argument is invalid. The beatings will continue until holiday spirit improves.
Ooooh, so exciting! It's less than three weeks until this guy comes to town. I don't know about all of you but I've been very nice. So Santa, can you hook me up with some more filmmaking equipment so I can produce even better quality episodes for everyone? Speaking of quality, check out this build by Bricks for Brains, superb! Oh, and then there's the little workshop where he and the elves make all the toys.
As we transition into fall, school starts and BrickCon looms, it also means Christmas is right around the corner. Lovely, glorious Christmas, around which the entire kid-year revolves. It would seem LoctiteGirl is looking forward to it as well, judging by this charming MOC. I love the stars breaking up and becoming snow (although I do have to wonder how those are attached).
