This mini-tank changes everything

Well, everything about it changes. That’s the same thing, right? Geoff Herndon built it, but he was inspired by вrickart!san.

Zombie Apoc 101: how to make a super-cool Post-Apoc vehicle

With BrickCon coming, I’m sure many are interested in creating vehicles for the Zombie Apocalypse display. If you like what we’ve featured in the past, you should check out Jordan Neves‘ article on how to make your own unique and original apocafied vehicle. By the way, I recommend Jordan’s blog as a supplement to foster Continue reading →

The glorious apocafication of 7641 & 7733

Nick Crocco (Steam Pirate) is taking the apocafication of official LEGO sets to great heights. An armored city bus emerges from 7641 City Corner. Nick replaces the stickers on the truck in 7733 Truck & Forklift with Space Police III stickers of the same underlying design. I think it’s awesome that the LEGO designers took Continue reading →

Iron Mountain Legion Tank

I’ve been talking with some friends lately about building a joint post-apocalyptic diorama. I started thinking about various factions that could do battle in the wastelands, and came up with several ideas. One was the Iron Mountain Legion. The Iron Mountain Legion is intended to be the remnants or descendants of an elite military unit Continue reading →

The toxic waste zombie outbreak begins

Mysterious viruses and radiation exposure aren’t the only ways to start a zombie outbreak. Muffinmanifestation suggests that what we’re pouring into our lakes and streams might have a little something to do with the coming zombie onslaught. With the outbreak underway, the soldiers who discovered Ground Zero try to make it back to base.

The impending rise of the undead will be televised in living color

A common criticism of ApocaLEGO creations is that they’re all shades of brown or gray — believable colors for many apocalyptic scenarios, but not necessarily for the zombie apocalypse. With that in mind, I’ve added a few more colorful creations to my fleet of zombie-hunting vehicles. The big red vehicle is an apocafied version of Continue reading →

Zombie minifigs infest Brian Colin’s paintings

Artist Brian Colin recently painted a series of small canvases featuring LEGO zombies. Gotta love that Classic Space zombie leading the horde. Perhaps not the thing to hang in your baby’s nursery, but awesome on so many levels that I wanted to pick up a couple myself. Sadly, I was vetoed by my wife. The Continue reading →

During winter, the zombies freeze

Kevin Fedde (Crimson Wolf) knows that things are a bit safer in northern climes during a zombie outbreak. I really like the contrast between the grey police station and the tan restaurant. The LEGO Universe panel on the top of the building is also a great detail.

Nowhere to run

Sometimes, the words we write for our blog posts can’t do justice to the wonderful LEGO creations we feature. Here’s Kevin (Legorevolution) in his own words: The NSR (or New Space Reich) lost contact with the battle cruiser Andromeda a little over 2 light years ago. Since the vessel was exploring an uncharted sector of Continue reading →

Hooray for the Whore of Babylon!

Oh, I’m sorry, was that the wrong response to this new installment in Brendan Powell Smith‘s The Brick Testament I love the apocalypse, just love it.

Chk’ chk’ Boom

Dr. X shows us how zombie-apoc is done with these excellent vehicles. They look like contemporary vehicles, but with stuff tacked on. That is good.

This is not the future my mother warned me about – Terminator Salvation minifigs

It’s been a very long time since going to see a movie inspired me to build a bunch of minifigs as soon as I got home. I saw Terminator Salvation on Saturday night, and had to build the heroes and their antagonists. The human Resistance wouldn’t be the same without a couple of T-600 Terminators Continue reading →
