I don't know how many of a particular thing you have to assemble before you have a "collection", but in this case I'm going to go with two. Builder LEGO7 has added this salty old maniac gunner to his pirate collection, and the Caribbean just got a little less safe. With two pistols and a rifle, he looks ready for action, and with that look in his eye, it's happening any moment. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

I was already in a magical mood this morning, thinking about the fantastical world of Harry Potter. It must have been fate, because moments later I discovered this, an absolutely wonderful musical puzzle box by builder kjm161. Inspired by the intricate and beautiful puzzle boxes from the game The Room, Karen has crafted a gorgeous tribute to Harry Potter, with many surprises. I won't ruin the fun, just watch the video, it's amazing. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

Since The Simpsons has been on the air in some form over 30 years, does that qualify Maggie as the world's oldest baby?

Humans like to build big things. And once those great big things are built, they need a greater bigger place to be maintained. Like the colossal Vehicle Assembly Building at KSC, or the enormous Hangar One at Moffett Field. So naturally with a big mech, like this beauty from builder Benjamin Cheh, you need a bigger hangar to work on it.

Douglas Adams was a trailblazer of the "quirky science fiction" subgenre, especially in his display of the precise randomness of the universe — when imagining all of space, anything is possible, or in fact, likely. Iain Heath captures a corner of that qunitessentially peculiar world with his tribute to The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, which features, among other things, Marvin the depressed robot, a strikingly short-lived sperm whale, and a fleet of musical dolphins.

We blogged Chris McVeigh's retro fridge when it premiered way back in 2014. Ever since then he's been thinking about adding a matching range, and it's finally here! While I'm not sure these appliances would fit in to my existing kitchen, I'm really not opposed to redoing the whole thing around them (and we could get rid of these universally hated, tiled countertops!)

If you're into mecha and LEGO, and somehow not already familiar with Moko's work...crawl out from under that rock. His work is fantastic. His newest creation, the aptly named MFS-018 BloodCancer, is no different. Check out the alternate photo where it transforms into crab mode! Those claws can do some serious damage.

Rapunzel is back, and this time she's packing heat! This awesome mechanized Castle Walker by Sheo is a fun build, and the building technique used to make it is really interesting.
