StarCraft Terran battlecruiser

Brickshelf user vana treats us to an amazingly designed and photographed UCS scale Terran battlecuiser from the game StarCraft. The traditional greebles on studs technique prevails once again, making the model extra detailed.

Team Fortress 2 Sentry gun in LEGO by Steve Barker

We were certainly impressed with Brendan Mauro’s Team Fortress 2 minifigs, but Steve Barker rightly says of his Sentry gun (also inspired by Team Fortress 2), “I think I am more proud of this MOC [my own creation] than any of my others so far.”
Justifiably so, Steve, justifiably so!

Via Kotaku, with a hat tip […]

M274 Mongoose ATV from Halo by Vidgamer838

The flood of LEGO Halo creations is so overwhelming that I can make that pun without ever having played the game. Still, this Mongoose ATV and custom UNSC Marine by Vidgamer838 seemed too good to pass up:

Here’s the marine (custom torso decal, painted Rock Raiders helmet, and modified Ninjas armor for shoulder pauldrons) without the […]

Microscale Wipeout race by Havoc

Inspired by the 1995 game Wipeout, Havoc’s futuristic racing scene both excellent buildings with custom billboards and a set of six great racers:

Mammoth Tank from Command and Conquer III

Peter Morris presents a brick-built model of the Mammoth Mark III from Command and Conquer III. Using the harder to obtain larger technic treads, Peter manages to complete this impressively large model (see size comparison to a nomal sized minifig-scale tank). For those unfamiliar with Peter’s building style, the jagged shapes and small color partitions […]

Half Life 2 Dodge in mini

Don Solo took inspiration (or rather persuasion) from Adrian Florea to make a mini version of his Half Life 2 Dodge while topping off the seats with frogs.

Teikjoon rocks out with his Guitar Hero mecha

Guitar Hero rocks. And so does this great mecha inspired by the game, built by Teikjoon:

Note the invisible air guitar, Guitar Hero controller, and the PowerSlide propulsion unit. Awesome.

Half Life 2 inspired Dodge

Adrian Florea replicates the “Jalopy” car from Half Life 2, which has the appearance of a partially built and customized 1969 Dodge Charger. Take some time to absorb all the gutted details, especially in the hood area. The model seems to feature a working steering system as well.

Photo review of new BrickForge accessories for 2008 [Review]

Those of you who were paying close attention to our coverage of BrickWorld 2008 probably noticed references to and pictures of the latest BrickForge accessories.
Thanks to Nannan and the magic of the United States Postal Service, here’s my review of the new items BrickForge will be releasing soon. In general, I’ll try to avoid repeating […]

Legod of War by Mar Delgado

YouTuber Mar Delgado has posted an intriguing trailer for a LEGO CGI movie he’s working on, inspired by the game God of War:

Very cool.
(And no, this isn’t an “official” trailer. Sadly, there will be no LEGO God of War after LEGO Batman. Nor Grand Theft LEGO.)

LEGO Indiana Jones video game almost redeems Crystal Skull movie [Review]

We blog a lot of video game LEGO on The Brothers Brick, but I think this may be our first LEGO video game review — and the reason I haven’t blogged as much the last few days, heh heh!

After playing both the LEGO Star Wars games, I was really looking forward to LEGO Indiana Jones, […]

Micro Warhammer 40K diorama

Inspired by Alex Kahler’s micro creation featuring a mini Dreadnought from Warhammer 40K, Jarek presents a micro dio featuring a few of his designs, including a nifty little tank, complete with an accompanying diorama.

Zero Suit Samus minifig by Moko

Moko has been playing Metroid Prime 3, or so it would seem from his latest minifig, featuring Samus’s Varia suit and her Zero Suit:

LEGO Indiana Jones: The Original Adventures Video Game Demo now available!

Yep, you read that right! The demo for the new LEGO Indiana Jones video is now available for download here. Brace yourself, it’s nearly 470 MB, but I’m sure it’s worth it (I’m about halfway through downloading it as I write this post). I can’t wait to play! What a great way […]

The Weighted Companion Cube will accompany you throughout the test.

Since I’m running an older Mac here at home (too old to dual-boot or run VPC), my knowledge of Portal is limited — and reinterpreted — by the many LEGO creations the game has inspired.
Nevertheless, I recognize a good Weighted Companion Cube when I see one. Le’pena uses mainly Technic and Bionicle pieces to […]

Sinking of the Yamato

Christophe Bongay presents a comical diorama of the last seconds of Yamato combining a few of his previous creations. There are many unique aspects of this creation ranging from the block shark to the disproportional ship, which was originally built as a Metal Slug vehicle.

Please note that any appearance of danger is merely a device to enhance your testing experience.

If you haven’t seen the recent Cave Racer fad taking over LEGO areas of Flickr, you must be living under a rock.  If you haven’t played (or at least recognize) the epic game Portal, you’ve definitely been living under a rock.
Well, while trying to survive school, I decided to try my hand at a Cave […]

Scene from Silent Hill 4

The Silent Hill games are possibly the scariest horror video games out there, and that’s why I like them so much. Here’s a scene from Silent Hill 4, featuring a ghost and the protagonist, Henry Townsend.
