Game of Death

Ieyasu has recreated legendary Martial Artist Bruce Lee in his iconic yellow track suit, as seen in his final movie, Game of Death. The builder doesn’t mention it in their description but I think was built to honor the fact that today is Bruce Lee’s 74th birthday. I really appreciate the posability of this figure. That, and the fact that the builder has included a backdrop that compliments the build without being distracting, puts this creation on the top shelf.

Brickmania releases custom Red Baron Fokker Dr. 1 set [News]

Brickmania has just released a new version of the iconic World War I tri-plane flown by Baron Manfred Von Richthofen, The Red Baron. The Fokker Dr. 1 kit includes special MG08 “Spandau” machine guns, hand-injected in the Brickarms studios, as well as a custom printed minifig of the baron himself.

Vorapedes are Voracious

These lovely creepy things were built by our very own Nannan Zhang. I love how Nannan is able to transform the pieces he uses into something that is much greater than the sum of its parts and managing to create a creature that is so organic and deadly-looking.

Jonarado founded by Jonas and Jonas

This western collaboration by Jonas (Legopard) and Jonas (Brick Vader) features an intricately crafted small town with subtle details that distinguish the creation such as non-linear oriented buildings and an uneven landscape. You can see more detailed shots on MOCpages.

Enter the Armory

You all know I’m a sucker for a good medieval scene. Well, this is a really good one. We don’t often see interior shots quite like this. Mark Erickson has knocked this one out of the park. I love the rows of weapons, the various stands and displays, as well as the overall architecture of the place. Overall, it’s a really nice build.

LEGO Chibi Optimus Prime

Angus Maclane, famous for couches and Cube-Dudes, went and super-deformed Optimus Prime. I think he’s adorable. If they had only done the Transformers movies this way, it would have been so much better.

A purple flower

Hacim Bricks says he felt like building a purple flower. So he did. I feel like posting a purple flower. So I am. It’s really nicely done and well presented.
