These adorable little canines by Moritz are too cute for words. From now on, whenever I see these pieces actually used as fenders, I’ll wonder why they crammed doggie heads in there….
The builder gives proper credit to Teik Joon for using a fender as an animal head.
It’s rare I get to use the ‘Technic’ category but when good technical design appears on a train even Technic-challenged me can appreciate it. Esben Kolind gives his commuter train a whole lot more fun with working doors and, as though that wasn’t impressive enough, a sliding step. And he does all this on a well detailed six-wide train. Incredible only begins to describe my feelings.
Thanks to Tim David for the link.
It’s always enjoyable to be able to lift a title straight from flickr. Alex Eylar (Profound Whatever) is the inventor (or maybe discoverer) of the adorably cute WarholBots.
EDIT: Alex has just made it easier to see his collection of artbots.
jdarlack serves up a special serving with this little “tablescrap”. Brilliant use of the pig there. This is one of those creations that get me wondering “Why didn’t I think of that?”.
Patrick (Jason son) has given us an excellent rendition of Mad Max’s car. I’m not certain of how common this car ever was as a police interceptor in Australia, but I like to think that they’re running around all over the place. Remember, two men enter, one man leaves.
Flick user retinence shows a very dab hand at Bionicle construction with his wolf. Apparently he “skimped on the technique”. I’d be curious to see what non-skimping looks like because it’s fantastic as is.
It’s not just the blocky and chunky shape of this dropship by Flickr’s (Pha][_,][_,) that I enjoy, either. I’m also very much enjoying the color blocking built into that form. I’m also a fan of all the various forms intersecting one another. This ship serves as a great example that a great design is more important than fancy new parts or techniques.
I can’t believe no one has thought of it earlier, because using a checkered flag for a chessboard is brilliant. Nice going Ivana Zetko!
Aaron Dayman has concocted a lovely blend of technique and terror. If I don’t sleep tonight, I’ll never forgive him. I’m loving it.
Aaron Dayman (Aaron :-)) has raised the stakes in the classic-castle medieval weapon challenge with this entry. Aaron’s arsenal of of ninja weapons includes nunchaku, shuriken, caltrops, tekagi, fukiya and smoke bombs.
I’m really looking forward to seeing these in the Big in Japan display at BrickCon 2010. Maybe we should put together an entire brick built weapon museum?
These new items from Alan M. are all that and they appear to know it. The amount of “posability” achieved by this builder is nothing short of incredible.

This samurai is astounding. The plethora of unusual pieces meshes perfectly together. Genius, I say. Pure Genius. You can color me a fan of the builder. His name is Cameron, by the way.
And, yes, this is the type of thing we would love to see in the Big In Japan layout at BrickCon this year.
Thanks to Bruce for pointing this out to me.
