HM 307 by Markus Haindl

I hadn’t run across Markus Haindl’s LEGO creations until I got an e-mail from him a few days ago. His latest mecha made checking out his Flickr photostream well worth my time!

Andrew Lee’s Doomsday is red and packs a punch

Andrew Lee has been tinkering with this mecha for a while now, and this latest variant is reminiscent of Warhammer 40,000. The standard is extremely cool.

The Quest

I’ve been wanting to do something like this for a while. It was inspired by Anthony Sava’s Cold Winter’s Knight.
Here’s a closeup of the cave entrance, if you are into such things.

Microscale Escort Carrier by Soren

Soren Roberts takes a break from his usual spacey proclivities to build something with a more historical bent.
Via MicroBricks.

Microspace Escort Carrier by Adrian Florea

It’s official: You can add Adrian Florea to my Favorite Builders list.

Historical Personages by Morgan19

I’ve admired Morgan19’s minifigs ever since I noticed his great Firefly minifigs. The latest batch is a group of historical minifigs, entries for the Fine Clonier Historical Minifig Contest. I might quibble with the “historical” nature of some of these, but it’s a great collection of minifigs, presented beautifully.

Tower on the Water by RebelRock

Check out this nifty castle by RebelRock.

Gotta love the studless water and he’s got Brickforge animals too!

Purple skies of Nnenn

UVN 99p Shyromal by Nnenn.

Not so neutral now, are we?

Spacer Jerac adds to his microscale Swiss fleet with the formidable dreadnaught Briareus.
Via Klocki and MicroBricks.

How Ben Ellerman survived Castle 2007

Back in April, I posted about LEGO Ambassador Mark Sandlin’s involvement with the Mars Mission theme. With Castle 2007 out for several months and anticipation building toward next year’s sets, Ben Ellerman takes some time to look back and reflect on his involvement in the development of the current Castle theme.
Here’s Ben in the […]

Two turntables and a microphone

Brothers Brick reader Kevin Guoh sent us a link to his Flickr photostream a few weeks ago, and I promptly lost his message in our mountain of reader submission e-mail. Among his creations is this great DJ console (and don’t miss his floor lamp). Sorry, Kevin! Better late than never?

News: More 2008 LEGO Castle, Indiana Jones, and Star Wars set pictures

Well, it’s that time of the year again. Fans everywhere are running across better and better pictures of upcoming sets. Eurobricks is famous (dare I say notorious?) for finding leaked pictures, and this latest batch is no exception.
Bearing in mind that we don’t yet know if these are just prototypes, and that LEGO has not […]

hotel 4 antz?

The trash wars of the future

Tired of dirty, muddy, radioactive futures? Then why not step forward into the future world Hippotam imagines: Clean and shiny.

Calloused Boxer by Zach Clapsadle

This larger-than-minifig-scale steampunk racer by Zach Clapsadle is just begging to be picked up and swooshed around the room with very loud vrooming noises.

U.S.S. Blesz by Vitus Barth

Blocktastic, perhaps, but Vitus Barth’s latest SHIP is also rather fantastic.

Bullet Dozer by Legohaulic

Legohaulic is at it again.
