Of the many Halo LEGO builders, only a few stand out as true masters of the theme. Tyler (Legohaulic) doesn’t need to prove that he’s one of them, but his recent grunt model further reinstates his talent in building in the theme.

Here they come to snuff the rooster…
Peter Morris was inspired by the Alice in Chains song “Rooster” to build this rather unique mecha. The torso fits a pilot, and this bad boy is fully posable.
You know he ain’t gonna die…
I’m over the moon for Zach’s micro moonbase factory
Inspired by Space Police Precinct 9, Zach Clapsadle decided the moon needed a factory. With smokestacks (built from pirate cannons). On the moon. Where there’s no air.
Love it.
Custom desert camo Tumbler by Brent Waller
It’s not often we feature LEGO that’s been painted to achieve the builder’s intended effect. But occasionally, like Jamie’s Dardenbahst, a customized creation rises above the rest and gets my grudging vote of approval. ;-)
Check out Brent Waller‘s rendition of the Batmobile “Tumbler” from Batman Begins:
Because LEGO doesn’t make the pieces he needed in tan, Brent built the Tumbler in white and light gray, and then painted the pieces tan with vinyl dye. He then layered the camouflage on top of the tan paint. The end result of this labor-intensive process is the spot-on Tumbler you see above.
If the customized version isn’t your thing, here’s Brent’s black version:
2008 Battles Contest Winners Selected!
I posted the winners of this year’s Battles Contest on Classic Castle earlier today. It was a difficult choice but here they are in all their splendor!
1st Place:
Rocko’s Goblin Attack
2nd Place:
Chris Edwards’ Family Reunion
3rd Place:
Adrian Florea’s Stone Golem Attack
Congratulations to these most excellent builders and their award-winning creations!
Total mayhem
One of those days, Rocko will get some sleep and we’ll be less jealous of his prolificness, but until then, nothing stops him from building, not even a dozen disasters happening simultaniously.
Tropicana racer bursting with colors
Nnenn‘s Tropicana racer is full of vibrant colors and decals. The color combination is especially vibrant, and I’ve not seen many colorful creations look this good. This is something only nnenn and a few others can achieve.
Rocko relaxes with the undead
So, after the zombie apocalypse, when humanity as we know it has ceased to exist, what do the victorious undead do? Kick up their heels in a gentlemen’s club, of course!
(The walking dead are simply pretending to be mindless drones as they tear apart our civilization. Clearly, once we’re out of the way, they’re capable of building a glorious society, as this diorama proves.)
Indigenous people fight back against pillaging invaders

Congratulations, Nannan! Way to represent. ;-)
