Rod Gillies (2 Much Caffeine) applies his skills to medieval Japan with his latest creation, “The General is summoned to war”. The stone wall has a great texture, and the green roof isn’t something you see that often in LEGO samurai/ninja creations (though they certainly exist in real life). My favorite detail is the fountain.
The latest creation from Moko is dressed in samurai mecha armor and wields twin energy katanas. That’s enough to spell awesome, but there are some worthwhile details to note such as the use of tiered tiles and cheese slopes to imitate the jagged samurai armor. And as with pictures involving chrome radar dishes, you get Continue reading →
I built this diorama with Donut, whom you may remember from our April Fools mock interview. Donut is actually a real person who’s indeed active online at Classic Castle and Eurobricks forums. I hope you enjoy our little project called The Last Samurai. You can read the poem associated with the creation here.
From beetles to snails, we’ve enjoyed the encounters that Geppelin‘s minifigs have had with animals over the years, but none are cuter than this kitten meeting a ninja. Thanks for the link, little bro! Hope I didn’t make Tsunami too jealous.
Moko‘s latest mecha combines two things that we all know are awesome: ninjas and robots. Black and silver with gold accents, the ninja mecha can seat a minifig — a masked mystery man whose identity remains unknown.
So much so, in fact, that I recently built one. It’s been so popular, that I’ve decided not to build anything but cars anymore. Since I’m still admin on classic-space.com, I’m going to convert the forums to be all about LEGO car creations. There will be emphasis on classic cars, and on trunk space. I’m Continue reading →
TT Games‘ publisher Warner Brothers Interactive Entertainment just announced LEGO Battles for Nintendo DS. The game is due out this summer, and will apparently emphasize building in original themes over the movie-based and comic-inspired adventures of games like LEGO Star Wars, Indiana Jones, and Batman. Check out this graphic of LEGO Pirates in action: The Continue reading →
Kevin Fedde uploaded a cute, little Shinto shrine today. I really like the overgrown look he has going on here.
Paul Brassington prepares you to witness a showdown over the fate of the sacred dumpling. This creation warrants a detailed look at its construciton and accompanying humorous captions. Don’t miss it!
DARKspawn + monkey ninja = total win.
Pirates and Ninja have been fighting it out for quite awhile. But now its time for the Final Round! Its all come down this: a competitive-eating competition, hosted by Anthony Sava. Get Ready, Get Set, Chow Down!
David Pagano, Nate Burr and myself were all recently asked by the LEGO Company to make a brickfilm to celebrate the LEGO minifigure’s 30th birthday. This is my contribution, 30 Years: The Story of the Minifigure. How many historical figures/events can you name? Don’t forget to check out GOMINIMANGO.com for more videos and a contest (details Continue reading →
Monkfish44 is training insectoid, bug-eyed creatures in the way of the ninja. Doesn’t seem to wise, if you ask me. Those things have a way of turning on you.
I’m extremely pleased to announce that Keith Goldman has joined The Brothers Brick as our resident Columnist. Keith is one of those LEGO fans of near-mythical proportions. Having met Keith in person, I can report that he stands nine feet four inches tall (that’s twelve meters for you Canadians), and is able to levitate his Continue reading →
Minifigs.net member ArzLan is a customizer I hadn’t encountered until I saw this gorgeous samurai on Brickshelf: Poking around, I found even more great custom samurai minifigs: Don’t miss lots of other great creations in ArzLan’s Brickshelf gallery.
