As most of you know, Stephen Colbert and Comedy Central aired the last episode of The Colbert Report last night. I'm sad to see it go, but happy for Stephen and I'll be tuning in to The Late Show when he takes over next year. This was my first real MOC when I joined the ranks of the AFOL community. It was warmly received and has a special place in my heart, as does Stephen.
It's been 30 years since this iconic ad made a big impact (pardon the pun). Back then I had no personal computer allegiance. I used whatever I could get my hands on since I didn't have my own. I later became an Amiga user, then moved on to PC. About three years ago I made the switch to Mac, and haven't looked back. JK Brickworks totally nails the look and feel for the ad, with a bit of a modern update. That Apple logo is amazing.
This is so freakin' adorable. From builder eldeeem comes the iconic Owly from the book series by Andy Runton. The pose, shapes and spirit of this MOC captures Owly perfectly, you just want to pick him up and hug him.
Batman turns 75 this year, and there is batmania everywhere. Builder polywen decided to celebrate with a large scale articulated figure, and it's amazing. Standing over 21" tall, he's nearly as intimidating as the real super hero (he is real, isn't he?). He's also 100% LEGO, even the cape is cut from a LEGO Club t-shirt, so we'll call it legit.
The prolific and talented SuckMyBrick is back with a movie quiz for you all. Can you name the movies these awesome little MOCs represent? These are so wonderful I can hardly contain myself. I got them all except one, still pondering it. There's ten in total, click through to see them all!
My good friend and Bricks Of Character cohort Iain Heath is back with another stellar MOC. From everyone's favorite anthropomorphized equestrian digitally rendered animated entertainment series My Little Pony comes Fluttershy and Discord. You can see these in person at Emerald City Comic-Con this weekend along with everyone's favorite British accented caffeine powered bipedal creative plastic brick arranger, Iain.
It's just like a god of the underworld isn't it? You're there, minding your own business, getting ready to dive into a delicious plate of pasta and there he is, looking in the window. Can't a guy enjoy a little lunch without getting creeped on?!?
