The Great Deku Tree
/The Great Deku Tree from The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time holds a dear place in my heart, and I suspect in a great many of yours too. It’s the first dungeon of sorts that many of us conquered, at least in a 3D game, and beyond the training ground that is Kokiri Forest. It’s that first satisfying completion of a large task in the game, and rewarding. It also happens to be my favorite game franchise. Builder Julius von Brunk has recreated this icon in bricks, and it has all the feels I could want.
Change was in the air for Bio-Cup 2026 Round 2 as builders tackled the theme of Metamorphosis. From fatherhood and molting to decay and rebirth, these are some of the transformations that caught our eye as the competition moves toward its final rounds.
