When I was a kid I was a big fan of the little known TV show "A Man Called Sloane", a spy series in the spirit of James Bond and Mission: Impossible. While Sloan was cool, his right hand man (pun intended) Torque was awesome, he had an amazing chrome mechanical hand with attachments. They would have been the perfect adversary of this character by vincentkiew, an eco-terrorist named Barret Wallace (from Final Fantasy VII), who also has a pretty spectacular modular arm.

I'm not sure if I'm breaking policy here. In general BrickNerd doesn't feature politics or religion, yet according to the description by builder Pate-keetongu the good reverend here is "Man of faith, force and a circular saw hat." He's also positively dashing, and it's my blog, so I'll do what I want.

The trailer for Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald dropped earlier today and LEGO has revealed potentially one of the sets that will accompany the movie. The set features a Thestral-draen carriage along with Johnny Depp’s Grindelwald along with a female minifigure. There’s also reported to be another set fir the movie tentatively named Newt Scamander’s Suitcase where it features a brick-built suitcase which can open up to show a scene from the movie.
