The Brothers Brick

Matt Armstrong has been building a monstrous number of microscale cars, trucks, and buses. So many, in fact, that he is now experiencing grid-lock…

Thanks to Erik Smit for the reminder!

This is one of Tony Sava‘s older builds, but its a darn good one. We hadn’t featured it before and he just took a new, improved picture of it. So take a ride on the Polar Express!

By the way, Tony is featured in the newest issue of Railbricks. I believe this is their first-ever Steam edition…

Steven Walker takes us on a vintage road trip in his Model A coupe, built for LUGNuts concept challenge. Its a pretty little thing!

While I may not be keen on Valentine’s Day as a holiday, I can’t fault Mark Neuman for the way he expresses his Valentine’s wishes. He’s built an adorable mecha/animal robot to offer up a cupcake. I love the expressiveness of the face he’s achieved, and the feet are just adorable. Since I’m 3000 miles away from Mark, I can’t eat the cupcake, so I wish it was made of LEGO too.

Benlego has created a little piece of paradise, and it, like everywhere else, needs mowed.

This diminutive scene is crammed full of incredible details! To begin with, check out the roof and the lawn-mower…

While most hardsuits make minifigs chunkier, Alvaro Gunawan (Pyrefyre) allows his minifig pilots to take slightly longer steps.

I’m tempted. Aren’t you? In addition to the Ultimate Collector’s Millennium Falcon, the Sandcrawler is also 20% off.

Given that the Sand Crawler isn’t even available from LEGO anymore, this could be your last opportunity to get Jawas. Just sayin’. Thanks for the tip, Wes!

Chris Doyle over at Reasonably Clever has just announced the “Handtruck Building Challenge ’09.”

Your mission, should you choose to accept it: Incorporate as many LEGO handtrucks into a LEGO creation as you can. The deadline is March 13, 2009, so get building!

Check out Reasonably Clever for complete details.

Justin Vaughn has recently posted a very interesting spacecraft. When I first saw it, I didn’t think that I liked it. None of the sections seemed to flow with each other, or even belong together. As it turns out, that’s just the effect he was going for. The ship is intended to look like it was cobbled together out of various scrap at a space junkyard. Mission accomplished, Justin.

Long time spacer, turned sculptor, turned non-builder, Felix Greco has returned to the brick, and now he’s building castle creations. He’s built a cute little cottage, with some stone work that I think adds a nice touch of realism. I’m also a fan of the way he made the lattice windows on the first floor. The fact that it’s home to the “ice cream knocker over-er” just adds to my delight.

Peter (lego911) has busted out the faux-chrome and clear cheese to present the beautiful Facel-Vega HK500 of Countess Aurelie Dominque. Wonderfully sleek.

Well, not in the sense that I want them to eat my minifigs’ brains (well, perhaps some of them), but in the sense that zombies make pretty much anything cooler.

The guys from The Big Toy Hut have put together a batch of minifigs inspired by the zombie megafigs by Andrew Bell:

While we’re at it, here are a couple of really cool Joker minifigs from Dark Knight:

David McNeely (Blue Star Lego) has been having a bit of fun with minifigs lately.

More specifically, David’s been building specialized troops for the classic Blacktron faction, as well as a corresponding “Whitetron” force.

These remind me of Spy vs. Spy:

I might’ve overlooked this great Mobile Suit Gundam mecha by Solus Maximus as “Not LEGO” if reader Curtis hadn’t sent us a link.
