Summer movie season is coming to an end, having reinvigorated the superhero genre with great entries for both Marvel and DC. While it will be some time before the next super-powered crossover hits screens, the genre is still popping in the LEGO minifig community. Today on Minifig Monday, we bring you a mix of headlining heroes and deep cut villains from a legion of incredible LEGO fig fans. Be sure to add the creators to your pull list and give them a like. Now, dear readers, without further ado – Excelsior! When it comes to adapting Marvel for the screen, 2024’s X-Men ’97 is as good as it gets. LEGO’s X-Mansion introduced a few more mutants to minifig form, with some big omissions. Boderson Bricks steps up with Xavier’s gifted team of mutants, bringing Jubilee and Morph into the fold. Boderson also recreates the larger supporting cast of allies and villains,...

Despite what many movies would have us believe, working the night shift as a museum guard is probably a pretty quiet job most of the time… unless you work in this museum scene by Mark, who has crafted a fun story about a group of burglars who have infiltrated the dinosaur wing with less than wholesome plans while a trio of guards enter the scene on patrol. I like the use of a molded T-Rex head on the back wall, and the wall dioramas are lit to reveal displays. I do have one question, though, and that is just why are there so many cats roaming the museum at night? Maybe they are supposed to distract the guards. Were you able to spot all 3 burglars?

Here at The Brothers Brick, we’ve seen mechs of every imaginable shape and size. But few of them pack the whimsical punch of this giant robotic duck by Cody Avery. I love how the model seamlessly blends heavy industrial design with cartoonish touches. For instance, those feet look like they should be stamping out parts in some sort of super advanced car factory, but they come at the end of the spring wrapped legs. And while I would wager that most of the bricks used in the build are shades of gray, there’s just enough red, yellow, and blue that the robot feels vibrant and colorful.

Do not adjust your screen. Today’s round-up of Vignweek builds features topsy-turvy creations around the theme “upside down.” This is also the last set of builds created with a 24-hour limit. Some builds are photographed upside down, others are constructed from the ceiling down, and others split the difference with mirror worlds. These are just a selection of the incredible upside-down vignettes from both familiar builders and some new faces. You can always count on NikiFilik for bright and playful builds, and today is no exception. What a fun twist on perspective as this stunt plane flips in the sky. Someone had to do it, and that someone was buillding_after_dark. Spider-man’s upside-down kiss remains one of the most iconic scenes in all of superhero cinema and the builder recreates it perfectly. Not one to leave us hanging, Mork Builds pays tribute to another famous movie scene of a dangling hero. Poor Luke...

Stefan Eeckman had been amassing light nougat parts with the intent of building a replica of the Inferno, the pirate ship from the 80s classic The Goonies. But, when the time came to start construction alongside Legostone, inspiration struck. What started as a replica became something new and even more impressive. With new details like extra gun ports and modified masting, this version of the Inferno is the result of two friends going on an expected journey…which makes it a more fitting Goonies homage, in my opinion.
