LEGO Groot from Guardians of the Galaxy

Sean and Steph Mayo just posted the most adorable Baby Groot (Sapling Groot?) ever. It was for a commission and I have to say that the new owner is very, very fortunate. I am Groot!

You should also check out two other versions by Jack M and Tyler. We’ve highlighted Tyler’s Groot before, but missed the boat on Jack’s.

Alina the Steampunk

Eero Okkonen (Pate-keetongu) built her and she is something special. We’ve seen quite a few wonderful figures similar to this one but the face puts her over the top. I have to say that the use of ‘batarangs’ was truly inspired!

Kraken Attack!

This scene of oceanic doom, built by Hen Peril, has a great sense of action going on. I love the chaotic feel and the convincing poses of the figures. Unfortunately, I don’t think they stand a chance!

Straight to the Heart

Gil is churning out great builds, one after the other, in the current Iron Builder challenge. This set of medical equipement is disturbingly life-like. Those pills are especially well made. It makes me want to eat my apple a day and keep the doctor away!

It’s just called “Space German”

Milan Sekiz built this menacing craft and he calls it “Space German”. I think it’s more Neo-Blacktron, but what do I know? Whatever it is, the ship has some lovely lines and a great color scheme. I’d hate to run across this in the far reaches of outer space…

It’s Alive!

Kosmas Santosa got out of his comfort zone, due to a challenge from a friend, and built this scene of the undead coming back to life. The atmosphere he has achieved here is awesomely creepy. I give me the chills just looking at it.
