LEGO’s Belville dolls are such strange and wonderful creations – a product of the late ’90s that looks like they came from a much earlier decade – which is probably why the dolls work so well in the amazing nostalgia-steeped dioramas of Victoria Worsley. They’re especially perfect in Victoria’s homage to ’60s set Little Shop of Horrors where she depicts the climactic confrontation as Seymore suddenly stands up to the alien plant. The larger scale allows ample space for potted plants, and of course, the diva plant herself, Audrey II. Hero Factory cocoon shells work perfectly for the petals around Audrey II’s mouth. Flip the scene around and you can see what happened to demented dentist Orin Scrivello. His ride is the conveniently scaled Creator 3-in-1 Vintage Motorcycle. It’s great to see the Fabuland garbage bin is capable of holding severed limbs. Victoria’s model is currently on display in the lobby...

When we first encountered the LEGO castle creations from Luke, who posts on Instagram as cathedralofbricks, we were immediately struck by the builder’s skill with medieval architecture and dramatic landscaping. Since we last spoke with Luke, he has gone on to win two top awards in the Summer Joust competition and sailed from castle territory into pirate-infested seas with a stunning tall ship.  This month, Luke debuted his biggest model yet, a tribute to Tolkien called “The Fellowship.” It’s such a magnificent build, we had to follow up with Luke about its creation. TBB: Thanks for taking the time to chat with us again. Congratulations on your latest large-scale MOC, “The Fellowship.” Luke: My pleasure! And thanks so much! TBB: Up until now, your builds have been original settings but this time you’re recreating a beloved location from a book and film. How did this change your approach to building? Luke:...

It looks like the LEGO Marvel X-Men X-Jet (76281) has gotten its permanent discount on Amazon. It is now priced at $67.99 which is 20% off or $17 off the regular price of $84.99. It does have minifigures of Wolverine, Cyclops, Rogue, and Magneto and that partly contributes to the higher price on top of the Disney tax. I’m curious to see if it will actually go any lower online (not the Walmart/Target markdowns) or if it’ll just be at this price until it retires.
