My wife loves The Little Mermaid, in fact it’s one of her all time favorite movies. She also loves Disney villains (and really, who doesn’t) and Ursula is one of the greatest of all time. So as soon as I spotted this marvelous version of the sea witch by retinence I knew she was going to be on the blog.  Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

Plumbing safety is no laughing matter. Every year hundreds of people are injured while improperly using the tools of the trade, and it's no joke. Not to mention the costs of repairs should a small flood happen. I know from first hand experience that a simple toilet overflow at the hands of a 9 year old can blossom into a $20k restoration project (true story). Take this apparatus for instance, a katana fixed to a plunger, can you imagine the damage that could be inflicted should this fall into the wrong.... Sorry, I'm being told this is from a video game, Fortnite or something. Never mind, move along. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

Inspired by the recent part study of the new wand piece (and it's sprue!) over at New Elementary builder MinifigNick decided to experiment, and this is the result: A charming dinner setting in a very interesting dining room. And while he had all those new Harry Potter parts laying around he decided to incorporate a few, can you spot them? Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

When I learned that LEGO was going to be made of plants, I didn't realize that a full carrot was on the menu! Zed_43 has created a very organic spaceship (hehe, get it?) and a cute little scene that can make everyone smile (except all the LEGO purist out there who don't want us to play with our food). But the icing on top is the impressive use of a real carrot as the core of the spaceship! All this talking of carrots and icing is really making me hungry, I think I'm going to have a piece of carrot cake.  Original linkOriginal author: Andrew Eden

I like the upgrades to this Link mech by Julius von Brunk. We last saw mecha Link way back in 2013. Well here it is about five years later (in peak Voltron hype) and the defender of Hyrule is back with some very nice upgrades. Zelda is in good hands. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

I missed the boat on Final Fantasy VII when it first came out (I was a Nintendo kid), but it's widely acclaimed as a classic RPG, and still fondly remembered to this day. One thing that hasn't aged as well is the blocky 3D models, but I think it gives it a certain charm, which Moko has brilliantly recreated in bricks. Those polygons look sharp!

This looks like a shot out of a movie, so I'm instantly fascinated of course. Ben Smith's dropship and APC look totally ready for action on whatever distant planet they're about to descend upon. I like to think it's some sort of rescue mission, where a hostile alien encounter is about to happen. But it's just as rad if they drop in, drive around for a bit, stop for some donuts then call for dust off. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

So you watched the stores, tracked the delivery trucks, bribed the clerks and fought the kids at Walmart and managed to score some of the new LEGO Harry Potter Collectible Minifigures or the new sets, so now what? Well, if you're builder LEGO 7 you build a replica of Newt's case to carry Newt, Tina, Jacob and Queenie, and it's absolutely magical. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

I'll be honest, I haven't completely wrapped my head around this latest offering from Ochre Jelly, mostly because I have practically no knowledge of Voltron, old or new. Iain describes this series as a "LEGO love note to the amazing animated Netflix show VOLTRON : LEGENDARY DEFENDER." and having not seen it, the characters mean nothing to me. But they are superbly built with the detail, flair and panache that I've come to expect from Iain, and they make me curious about the show. Click through for the whole series.

What is space? When you say the word most people travel about 60 miles up in their mind and see stars and satellites. But space is just space, be it between planets, between houses or between cells. Builder Dwalin Forkbeard shows us what exploration looks like on the nano level with Invader T3 Phage. And I've been fighting a virus since last Friday, hmmmm. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy
