Paul Vermeesch made a Lego marionette, which I’ve never seen before. The expression on the cowboy’s face is remarkable; don’t miss the minifig hairpiece that’s used for his hair (would you call that NPU?)

Swamp castle
Joshua Morris (I Scream Clone) decided that his first complete castle build should take place in a swamp setting. I like the how the rocks seem suspended over the acid pool, making the castle look very formidable in this view.
FBTB Mech Madness 2012 Building Tournament
Each year FBTB hosts a MOC Madness contest with great prizes and a great turnout. This year’s contest challenges you to build a mech for a hero or villain. Click the banner below for more details.
Unconventional MOCs
The two latest creations by Sean and Steph (Siercon and Coral) feature completely ridiculous yet interesting methods of building (or unbuilding). The first is a sea-scape made out of only transparent bricks that are not connected in any way.
The second is a medieval scene made from clone bricks and modified by real fire.
There’s a video to prove it:
Rivendell captured in Lego
Blake Baer and Jack Bittner present their second collaboration shown at BrickFair earlier this month. This time they built the beautiful Rivendell from Lord of the Rings. This is the first time I’ve seen the olive colored leaves used in significant quantities and they are great highlights on top of an already gorgeous diorama. You can see a video tour of the details on Flickr and more pictures including behind-the-scenes shots on MOCpages.
LEGO The Motion Picture Vehicle Design Contest
Warner Bros. is making the first Lego feature film due for 2014, and Lego has announced a contest to have your creation featured in the movie. Check out this video announcement and visit the contest website for how to enter.
The Amazing Posable Spider-Man
Mike McCooey once again made an ultra-posable figure this time depicting our favorite web-slinging superhero. With 48 points of articulation (not an easy feat to achieve with Lego), this Spidey can do what a spider can!
Desalination plant
Gilcelio Chagas from LUG Brasil is known for his miniland scale cars, but his recent model is something much different – a desalination plant made for an electrical engineering project. There are numerous details in the elements and custom decals, which you can appreciate in the Flickr set.
Stargate Goa’uld Death Glider
The Death Glider from Stargate is a challenging ship to build due to its curved shape, but Kevin Walter convincingly replicated it in Lego. The brick-built canopy looks very good.
Halo 4 M363 Sticky Detonator
Halo 4 is coming out this fall, and Nick Jensen is taking no breaks in the expansion of his life-sized Halo arsenal. Here is his brick-built version of the Sticky Detonator along with working features.
Lenticular Lego mosaic of Batman and the Joker
If you liked Arthur Gugick‘s Anakin-Vader lenticular mosaic, then you’ll love his recent one that depicts Batman and the Joker.
