A Clikipiller of course! Megan Rothrock is known to build colorful and cheerful creatures and creations of all sorts. This one runs on a standard lego train track. I love the colors on the back of this bug.

Photo review of 7620 Indiana Jones Motorcycle Escape on BrickZone.net
Head on over to BrickZone.net for a full photo review of what appears to be the very first set from the upcoming Indiana Jones line — 7620 Indiana Jones Motorcycle Escape.
Sky-fishing with Owen Vanderbilt
Kamikaze love
Mark Stafford (aka Nabii) constructs an action-packed diorama called Crash-N-Burn. In the words of its creator, “if they shoot you down you take them out.”
I love Mark’s repeated use of the ice-cream pieces for the smoke, and just like in Hollywood, special effects aren’t cheap!
It never gets lonely in the desert
What’s better than having your truck broken down in the middle of the desert? Why, with a horde of zombies of course! Justin Vaughn conjures a swarm of zombies attacking a truck on a desert highway. Check out Zombie Hunt.
Nice salt shaker! Ran out of white paper? ;)
No, janitor Steve — don’t sit there!
Click the image to see what happens when Arpy (Brickshelf | Flickr) puts a familiar-looking janitor named “Steve” in the same room as an experimental alterdimensional transportal.
Cruising to the future
In his own words, “Admiral Giddens just purchased the Numitor from Bufford T Justice Fazoom. Captain Fazoom put the proton injector booster on his dad’s car prior to the sale, breaking up the classic lines. But, it does add features like 120% more time bending and less knocking on unleaded fleebjuice.
The Numitor is a 1 seater sedan that gets 1 million miles to the gallon skyway, 720,000 in the city. Comes standard with air and 8 track.”
I love the graphics edit in this photo! Makes me want to buy one as well.
Vader gets his own guards
If the Emperor gets his personal guards, why can’t the dark lord himself? When I found those red Darth Vader helmets on Bricklink, I knew what I had to do.
When four equals six
Well I’m trying to be a bit better about blogging my own stuff relatively quickly. This loco is based on a die-cast model of a German HF 110C locomotive which is meant to have six wheels but since I wanted it motorised with the classic motor it only has four. If you look carefully you will notice that the boiler and rear coal tender are upside down. Hope you like it.
Tank 5
I was originally going to add a comment about this to Nannan’s post below but decided that while over a year old, this tank was worthy of its own post.
Magnus Lauglo’s excellent minifig scale Warlord tank is a very attractive model. What makes it even better is that it is fully motorised. What Magnus said. Enough said.

Clear way for a motorized tank!
Carlos Encinas creates the first motorized tank I’ve seen called the Tiger. Click on the picture to read more about the model.
Check out the video of the tank in motion!
I am impressed by the functionality of the mindstorms kit. I am coincidentally working on my own motorized tank, but it uses a basic motor. This impressive demonstration of combining robotics with system certainly inspired me to consider using mindstorms in any future endeavors at motorized things.
Via Klocki
Hippotam revealed!
As a great builder and the creator of one of my favorite LEGO blogs (Klocki Lego dla dorosłych), I can’t imagine the LEGO online community without the man we knew previously only as Hippotam.
To honor the selection of his “Armadillo” (on the left above) as the “MOC of the Month” on Portuguese LEGO fan site Fórum 0937, the site featured an interview. Now, we’re lucky enough to have an English version on Klocki.
So, nice to meet you, Marcin Danielak! :-D
