MB-06/SAC Arm-Suit by HAZEL
HAZEL isn’t all about amazing customization and Gears of War. This awesome mecha has some interesting part uses, including a snowboard above the cockpit.
Check it out with tons of very cool custom stickers:
Gas Can is his middle name
Fvin doesn’t seem content to wait for the release of LEGO Disney/Pixar sets.
Fvin’s Mack from Cars may not have mud flaps, but has lots of other cool details to check out on Brickshelf.
Thanks for the tip, Bruce!
The lovely Queen of Hearts Castle
This majestic castle by Edward C (Reejoc) isn’t any ordinary fortification; it’s home to the Queen of Hearts and her loyal guards. To get to the castle, you must find your way through the thorned hedge maze, which is the first of its kind done in LEGO.
Some other cool features include the floating rock garden, the watchtower, and an intricate throne room. The inspiration for this creation was drawn from, as you guessed it, Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland.
My micro Battlestar Galactica hangar, with tiny Vipers and teeny Raptors

The Colonial Viper design is inspired by the little black fighter by Bodo Elsel I saw recently on MicroBricks.
Here’s a close-up of the Vipers, escorting a Colonial Raptor:
I have a few more photos in my Microscale Battlestar Galactica Hangar photoset on Flickr.
Cerberus Shock Battle Tank
Brad Edmondson’s (Tristarian Arms) futuristic hover tank is “a labor of love” – a project that had its inspirational roots from many years back during the builder’s teenage years. Check out the backstory on MOCpages and see how Brad has poured his soul into this fine creation. There is also a Youtube video showing detail shots of the model.
The barrister is in.
Yvonne Doyle ({YVD}) posted her lovely Barrister’s Office before I joined The Brothers Brick as a blogger. I was reminded of it again today, though, and when I saw that it hadn’t been covered here, I had to post about it.
I love the paneled wall that she’s built out of crates, and the lamp with green glass is absolutely perfect. This is exactly what I imagine a barrister or attorney’s office should look like. Of course, I work in a cubicle, as does every attorney at the office of the firm where I work, but a man can dream.
Apparently dwarves like roller coasters.
This is news to me, but flickr’s SlyOwl has done a fantastic job of showing us the medieval thrill rides built by the bearded miners. The twisting track is awesome, and he’s added a fantastic sense of motion with the minifigs on board. Of course, he’s not content to merely show us the ride in motion, he’s also built an accompanying display of the entrance to the ride, complete with jesters entertaining the patrons waiting in line. Don’t forget to check out the little details in the roller coaster scene, like the section of track that seems to be held up by bats, and the section of fallen track on the cave floor. Is that guano under the bats?
Jamie’s Gunship
Jamie (steelharbingerofdeath) has built a neat little gunship from the future. I think he’s done a great job on the rings for the lift-turbines, which I guess are spinning so fast that we can’t even see the blades. The body is compact, and it has just the right splash of color.
Steven Marshall does some heavy lifting with his forklift
Steven Marshall has put his orange bricks and the new Power Miners rollcage piece together to create this beautiful minifig-scale forklift, complete with actual rear steering!
Arrr! Shiver-me space-timbers!
Andrew Lee (Wintermute/Onosendai) has built quite an awesome pirate mecha. He has proven once again that he is the master of sticker use, using only official LEGO stickers. The weapons compliment is very nice as well, from the arm blades for breaching space-galleon hulls to the grappling hook.
Shannonia the expansive
Shannon Young won the “Best in Micro” award at BrickCon this past October, and he recently (finally!) began uploading detailed photos to the City of Shannonia Visitors’ Center on MOCpages.
In addition to the downtown core he began with nearly two years ago, Shannon has added a coastline, landscaping, and outlying suburbs.
