Lifesize props that will have you asking “Is it LEGO?”

Life sized Lego SUROS Regime rifle from Destiny

Nick Jensen has built a lot of life-sized Lego guns from video games. His latest SUROS Regime rifle from Destiny is very catchy, displaying flashy colors that live up to the gun’s exotic nature.

A lantern to light the way

Paul Toxopeus (P@u! +ox) gives us an absolutely gorgeous lantern to oogle at. He’s built in an LED light, and a stunning mosaic that just comes to life when the lights go out.

LEGO Nutella Jar

This makes me so incredibly happy:
LEGO Nutella - "Philipp" Glass

While it’s common for me to get super excited about Nutella, I think it’s a testament to this simple, but well executed build by Brucewaynelego, who manages to capture all my warm fuzzy feeling in this super recognizable model.

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!

Say Ahh!!!

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.

Unlocked

This one tricked me. Gilcelio built this very realistic padlock and hasp, put it on a lovely brick-built chest, and I didn’t realize it was LEGO until after I clicked on it. Very impressive. I love realistic, full-size recreations of everyday objects.

The secret was revealed, the padlock is open!

Ring ring ring

This antique telephone by Lee Young (edguy20) captures the ornate decorations that adorned such devices back in the day. However, it’s still quite a ways from the bending technology of the modern phone.

One for the work peeps.

These LEGO Doctor Who Bookends Will Keep Your Books from Going All Wibbly-Wobbly

Adam Dodge traverses the intersection of awesome LEGO model and useful real-world object with this pair of Doctor Who-inspired bookends. I suspect many a Whovian will be drooling over Adam’s excellent creation.

The Gods Themselves Look Down Upon Us

“Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.” This oft-quoted nugget from Arthur C. Clarke is perfectly embodied in this otherworldly model by Nick V. (Brickthing). It’s not often that I’m blown away by the aesthetics of a spacecraft, but Nick is one of the best builders in the community, and has been tearing it up of late. This model, an alien “deity” worshipped by ancient humanity, à la Stargate, is a study in excellence.

To avoid making every other post here on Brothers Brick one of Nick’s new models, I’m also going to point out this stunning bonsai tree.

Now You Must Face the Future

It comes as no surprise that the dynamic duo Sean and Steph Mayo (Siercon and Coral) have yet again produced another stunning model that nudges the boundaries of building possibilities a little further out. The Intelligence, as this model is named, is inspired by the classic pin-art toy, and seems to be straight from the pages of a surrealism guidebook.
