The snowspeeder is one of my favorite Star Wars ships. It's angular design and no-nonsense style always appealed to me. There's been many attempts to build it this small (just look at all the Star Wars advent calendars) but I think this one by Rogue Bantha is the most successful I've seen. Built for the Star Wars building contest on Brickset. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

If you weren't actively looking for cool LEGO creations you might not even give this picture by Anthony SÉJOURNÉ a second look. From the thumbnail it just looks like a well photographed bar of soap. But look closer and you see it's a very clever build. While it's not going to get your hands any cleaner, it's certainly a clean build. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

One thing everyone knows about Komodo dragons is they're big, really big, the biggest lizards on the planet. What you may not realize about this brick-built version by d' Qiu Brick is that it's pretty much actual size (for a small Komodo dragon they can grow up to 9 feet!). Click through for pictures with a minifig for scale and prepare to be stunned. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

I wasn't exactly sure what I was looking at when I spied Vince Toulouse's latest creation.   Yeah, clearly it's a high-tech tram.  But with a front-loader washing machine on the third level?  Or is it a Minion?  Whatever, it's pretty frakin' cool!  Check out Vince's photostream to see all the nifty details, especially his notations on the various Duplo and Fabuland pieces that when into this build.  Slick!

I was fortunate enough to see this wonderfully whimsical piece by Brickbaron in person at BrickCon. I was also honored with an official party animal sheep head from Paul, one of 50 he gave out at the convention. Toward the end of the con all of the party animals gathered for a photo op (I'm on the right, making the usual stupid face). What a fantastic way to celebrate the yearly reunion of friends and brighten everyone's day, thanks Paul! Original linkOriginal author: Tommy
