I love cheeseburgers, it's one of my favorite foods. I could be within walking distance of a multitude of restaurants, perhaps even Michelin star rated ones, but I'd be just as happy at In-N-Out. And now of course I'm going to have to have a burger for lunch because of this awesome MOC by nobu_tary. It's also the first use of the new Unikitty base I've seen and it's brilliant.
You didn't think he got to be the "king of burgers" solely on the merits of the Whopper did you? No, if you want to dominate in the world of fast food you need a strategy, you need a colossal marketing program, and you need something else, something special. This is the BK-900 "Burgermeister Rex" by Baron Julius von Brunk, and it's here to conquer.
I can assure you the last job description you'd ever find for me is "astronaut". If my weight didn't instantly disqualify me my propensity for motion sickness would not long after. But, in the highly imaginative world where I would break the bounds of gravity of this planet I would still have a weakness for gimmicky food, and I'd be first in line to get something from these wonderful food rovers from TFDesigns.
If I were at a theme park, or just about anywhere else, and I saw this I would be helpless against it's temptation. I don't know what that says about me, but I don't care. These brilliant little food kiosks by Big_Sal_224 are from the game Theme Park, which I never played, but sure would love to visit. I think the world needs more food-shaped places to get food.
As things heat up in this round of Iron Builder the two competitors are stepping it up. I love cheeseburgers, they're one of my favorite foods. I also have a family history with them, since my dad started a very successful burger joint that continues to thrive to this day. So I find this latest build by Leopard irresistible (and now I'm craving a cheeseburger).
Most of the people that have visited BrickNerd Studios here in Lompoc have discovered something about me, I come from strong burger DNA. It's a tradition when someone visits to take them to Tom's, a local burger joint started by my dad Tom Sr about 35 years ago. I can assure you if builder Powerpig ever visits, I'll be taking him there, he clearly appreciates a good burger.
Can there be any finer mascot than a burger (I mean, besides a nerdy, bespectacled brick of course)? My dad had one for Tom's Burgers in Lompoc, McD's has Mayor McCheese and Krystal has one too. So this mascot for vitreolum's Mocathalon team joins a proud heritage, and looks awesome.
