Completely understandable Tim.
I overreacted quite a bit.
Apologies.

Nor is it a reasonable expectation that everyone in the world will know what RoninLUG is. Just sayin’. ;-)

Andrew> If you want to complain to anyone complain to Paul. He’s the one that didn’t label it. If I see a picture in someone’s photostream and its not labeled as being from a show I’ll assume it’s theirs. It’s not an unreasonable assumption to make.

It looks like something Goldman would make. That’s a good thing.

Seriously, WTF?
I’m all for Paul getting blogged – don’t get me wrong he doesn’t get enough recognition here at TBB. I’m just surprised that’s there’s no love and respect for the rest of the crew. For a dude who spends a ton of time on the net checking out and debating about lego you’d think you’d have figured out this was a group effort. (And that there was an actual title) . . .

Anyway for awesome pix you really should check out Brandon Griffith’s flickr stream (http://www.flickr.com/photos/brandongriffith/sets/72157623764796983/).

It’s good to see this here, and was amazing to see it in person at Bricks by the Bay.

I believe the name to this is Mecha Nature Trail Part Three: Betrayal.

With a scene like this, it would make an epic brickfilm :)

Wow this is the second time you guys have done this to me. Don’t you guys ever do proper research?

^ Thanks for adding that, I thought it looked like RoninLUG work.

I think it should be noted that this is a collab built also involving Andrew Lee, Fradel Gonzales, and Brandon Griffith.

I got to see this up close at Bricks by the Bay earlier this month, and it was pretty awesome (I think it won an award too). I especially like the waterfall, which if I remember right is all transparent bricks, providing some illumination for the secret base inside the hill.

In my opinion, the only thing that rivals this is Mark Kelso’s Apocalypsis. Except with the background off slightly.

You should see the pictures of the inside of the mountain. Truly remarkable build all around. There are even some LifeLites spread around here and there…
