If there are two things I love spending my time doing, it’s building LEGO and playing Halo. And despite a long-standing line of Mega sets, it’s the LEGO Halo builders online that I find myself in awe of. And none more so than HereticCreations! In case you couldn’t guess, this builder specialises in Halo creations, and in prolific fashion too. With a Flickr gallery containing over 800 photos, they’ve built everything from Flood-infested Covenant to enormous UNSC juggernauts, and plenty big and small in between.

The builder started the project four weeks ago with a flat base layer of the raven and skull. While ravens may be “black,” there’s an iridescence to the feathers that she brings out with color highlights in the pink and blue spectrum. Up close you can see so many parts that GothGirlBricks brings into the model – especially the animals! I see spiders, kittens, owls, butterflies,...

LEGO has announced an upcoming Black Friday 2025 Livestream to reveal a new mystery set. It will be held on November 6 at 9:15am PST/12:15pm EST. The caption reads, “Jump aboard to discover our newest set” and it’s very possible that it ties in to the LEGO Star Trek set that was teased back in September.
