Ranking quite high on the "sentences I didn't expect to compose today" list is this: Here is a remote controlled LEGO car shaped like a zombie taking a bath with some rubber duckies. I'll let that sink in, then invite you to click through to see more pics of this crazy car by builder Olive_Leaf as well as a video of it in action.
Since The Simpsons has been on the air in some form over 30 years, does that qualify Maggie as the world's oldest baby? Builder grubaluk not only put together two spot-on caricatures, but Maggie is also fully remote controlled! Using an S-brick, two Power Functions L motors and a Power Functions servo motor, she can totally surf the sidewalks.
Builder Bricksonwheels is back with another big, beautiful truck. This one's a Scania R580 PWT, and while it looks a treat just standing still, you can drive this one with your cell phone thanks to an S-Brick and two Power Functions XL motors.
If you haven't seen one before, "magic cubes" (or Yoshimoto Cubes) are pretty mesmerizing things. You can endlessly fold them, which is strangely satisfying. But why go to all that trouble when you can do it by remote control? That's what builder slfroden seems to have wondered, so he built this fully motorized and remote controlled version of a magic cube, and what can I say, It's magical.
Whenever one of these behemoths passes me on the road I'm in awe. Humans sure can built some crazy big stuff can't we? But I think seeing this colossal MOC by Dirk Klijn in person would be equally awe inspiring. This is the culmination of over three and a half years of work, and it shows. With five S-Bricks controlling over 17 functions it's a workhorse as well. I can't wait to see video of this baby in action. Click through for loads more pictures including a lot of WIP.
Ground troops need to get where they're going quickly, and pausing to construct a bridge is a good way to not go anywhere quickly. This is the genius of armored vehicle-launched bridges. Just drive up to that creek or ditch, back this baby up and drop a bridge right on it. This LEGO version by Tommy Styrvoky not only looks the part in stunning detail and construction, it's fully functional with remote control. Check out the video to see it in action.
This Technic Ford Edge by builder chumuhou is pretty insane. There's no description or links to learn more about it, so I can't tell you what specific features it has, but the battery pack and motors visible from below make it look like a fully functioning RC car. The body styling is fantastic, right down to the Ford emblem on the awesome front grill.
Way back when my family used to do cross country trips (in a beetle no less) and of course we had a CB radio, it was the 70's. So naturally we came to rely on the useful information of the truckers on the road, and when the opportunity arose with a well timed pitstop, we got to admire some of the trucks up close. This one has always been one of my favorites, the Peterbilt. This MOC by Bricksonwheels does it justice with a great paint scheme, loads of detail and just the right amount of chrome.
Small car enthusiasts should recognize this baby, the Peel P50, the smallest production car ever produced. TopGear fans might remember this as the car Jeremy Clarkson drove to work, literally. And by to work I mean to the building, through the front door, up the elevator and into the usual trouble you'd expect him to get in. Builder vmln8r not only nailed the aesthetic in a small 8x16 size, he managed to cram full remote capability into it thanks to some power functions and an S-Brick. He even shared the LDD file of the chassis so you can build your own. Check out the video to see it in action.
Mechanical mad genius JK Brickworks is back with another mind-blowing creation. This one might have you scratching your head how it could possibly work. Luckily Jason shared a video that shows all the secrets. Maybe it doesn't navigate stairs so well, but the rest of the time it's pretty amazing.
This is a seriously sweet hotrod from builder sm 01. The design is pretty classic model-T, with lots of flair, like the checkerboard firewall and detailed engine. But what's not immediately evident is the working door handles, adjustable rear suspension, mechanized engine and retractable license plate. Oh, and did I mention it's remote controlled too? Check out the video for all the working action.
I love when a MOC makes me go "wait, what?" That's the case with this awesome little forklift from builder mahjqa. The clean build and excellent pictures caught my attention, but I assumed it was just a nice Technic build, then I watched the video. This thing is a seriously agile and accurate little MOC, and the creative photography with Technic rigs is super impressive. The inclusion of the S-Brick makes it tablet controlled and the results are spectacular. And luckily for all of us the builder has shared the LDD file on his website as well, we can build our own!
This is impressive. I've been wondering if something like this is possible, now I wonder no more. Builder 4estFeller has created a fully functioning quadcopter from technic. Obviously the electronics and props are not LEGO, but the frame is, and it's perfect. Check out the video to see it in action.
Cadillac, the name is synonymous with quality. And now builder martijnnab22 has built the Cadillac of Technic MOCs (see what I did there?) with this sweet '59 Eldorado Biarritz 1959 Convertible. It's loaded with features including independent suspension, power functions remote control, lighting, locking doors and more. Check out the video to see them all.
This is an impressive beast from builder curtydc. The scale and styling alone would be enough to make you go "whoa", not to mention all the support vehicles that accompany this massive vehicle, but add to that it's remote controlled and "whoa" just doesn't seem to cut it. Take a look at these stats...
- Six 118mm RC4WD Interco IROK 1.9 Scale Tires
- Two XL motors power the 6 wheel drive powertrain
- Two M motors power the 6 wheel steering
- Fully Independent Suspension with 12 Shock Absorbers (2 per wheel)
- Two Battery Boxes
- Two IR Recievers
- One Control Switch
- Lots of rubber bands, a couple feet of extension wires, and a lot of blue bricks.
Talk about awesome, this StarCraft 2 siege tank from drakmin is so well designed, built, photographed and edited that it looks more like box or concept art. But no, it's an actual MOC and it's totally badass. Yes, it's been around for a while, but this picture is new so I don't know if I'd call it MOCstalgia or not, hmmm. Check out the video as well, sweet!
