Atomic Pop is my favorite toy/comic book store in Baltimore, and Atomic Punk is now my favorite hot rod. Nathan Proudlove (Proudlove) did a great job rendering this car in LEGO form.

Ok, so perhaps I’m a sucker for anything with a bubble dome, sue me.

What is the sound of one me talking? This is the Colbert Report!

Ralph Savelsberg gets ready to put the hurt on with this gorgeous rendition of the M1A1 Abrams. Can I use the word ‘gorgeous’ to describe a tank? I think so…

That’s all we’ve got left, at least according to Frank. Until then, enjoy this duo of miniland characters from Donnie Darko. They are brought to us by the incomparable Lino.

Matt Armstrong (Monsterbrick) has added another ingredient to his miniland scale rendition of the Powerpuff Girls, LEGO. I think he did an especially nice job on the shoes.
