Just look at this lovely cybernetic, steampunky beauty from builder Pate-keetongu. I'm not a Magic the Gathering player, nor am I familiar with the character that inspired this build, but that doesn't diminish my appreciation for her. The sense of weight, balance, motion and purpose is all there, she looks ready to strike or take flight. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

One of my favorite family cars growing up was my dad's Jeep. It was obnoxious orange, bouncy, and uncomfortable, and we all loved it. So I have a natural soft spot for the venerable Jeep, and when I saw this beast by builder Horcik Designs I knew instantly I was going to blog it. And while I absolutely love my Toyota Tacoma, I could see myself towing my new Airstream with this without using much imagination. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

I've never played Brütal Legend (ok, I'll admit it, I've never heard of Brütal Legend) but I certainly dig this figure of it's main protagonist Eddie Riggs by builder Pepa Quin. And what's not to love? He's a faithful roadie turned post apocalyptic badass, slaying bad guys and rocking out. After learning about this game, with voices by Jack Black, Ozzy and Lemmy, I'll admit I'm intrigued, might have to seek it out. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

It doesn't get much more classic than Alice In Wonderland, from the Lewis Carroll book, to the animated Disney classic to the (personally traumatizing, ask me some time) live action Tim Burton movie, it's a long time fan favorite. Builder roΙΙi has drawn inspiration from the Disney version, and spun it with his own imagination into this delightful snapshot of the children's story. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

I love how my daily quest for interesting LEGO creations has educated me over the past five years. Who would have thought that so much was to be learned of other cultures, events, people and world history through the stacking of bricks? Today I learned of the viking conquest of the coast of Spain in the year 858AD, thanks to this incredible diorama by The Brickstons Group. I could go on and on about all the detail and storytelling of this colossal effort, but it's really best experienced looking for yourself. I highly recommend you click through for loads of pictures.

I still remember the time my oldest explained Pokemon to me so many years ago. We had the cards, the games, we watched the cartoons, it was big at our house. There was a poster on his wall, and he very patiently showed me the best ones and explained the concept of enslaving small woodland creatures, storing them in small spheres and forcing them to fight for his pleasure. I think the whole thing wouldn't have sounded quite so inhumane if I had known what was inside the Pokeballs. If it's like the concept by Grant Davis here, they seem well appointed and Pikachu seems pretty content. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

May was a very busy month in regards to LEGO news and here’s a recap of some of the more notable articles from the month. Again, it might be a longer post than other months. LEGO June 2018 Store Calendar Promotions & Events – The June promotions has kicked off and it’s a fairly calm month in terms of promotions. LEGO City Summer 2018 Capital (60200) Revealed – One of the largest LEGO City sets for the summer 2018 wave is the Capital (60200) which is similar in scale to the Town Square and City Square sets from previous years.

I think it's really too bad there's no dragons in the world. Whether or not this is because they've all died off or never existed in the first place I'll leave up to you. Luckily we can sort of bring them to life (or bring them back, again, up to you) through art and media, and that's exactly what builder Henjin_Quilones has done with this awesome rendition of Kijani the Earth Dragon.

This impressive locomotive by brickthebrick is one of those models that you look at for a second in confusion, because you can't figure out the scale. I thought it was just a train model at first glance, but my brain couldn't reconcile the level of detail achieved. Then I noticed the texture of the "rocks" in the track, those are 1x1 round tiles, this thing is huge. It's 1/15 scale and comprised of fourteen thousand pieces! Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

The next LEGO video game was announced last week to be LEGO DC Super-Villains coming in October. WB Games and TT Games will be at E3 next week to start promoting it and hopefully will continue at San Diego Comic Con. There’s already some new information about it in terms of new characters that we can expect to see. Greg Miller from Kinda Funny has been a genuine fan of LEGO video games for a while now and if you’ve been going to the SDCC panels for previous LEGO games, you can actually see the enthusiasm he has for these games. He has actually done some voice work for some of the previous LEGO games including Aldrich Killian for LEGO Marvel’s Avengers and Howard the Duck for LEGO Marvel Super Heroes 2. When a fan was asking him if he was going to be in this latest installment, he replied with...
