Zombie hordes, nuclear annihilation, rising sea levels, the monkeypox — the future doesn’t look too bright for all those smiling LEGO minifigs. But survivors abound in the post-apocalyptic wasteland, entrenched in well-guarded camps or on the road in crazy armored contraptions. Check out all these post-apoc models to see that there is indeed hope for LEGO humanity after all…

Sebastian Arts’ Reality Dysfunction will eat your city

Run and hide your Cafe Corner, Market Street and Green Grocer!  This creepy creation built by Sebastian “Aliencat” Arts will consume all!

Side note: haha, take that Nannan, I finally blogged a Black Fantasy creation before you!

What do Half-Life 2 and Magritte have to do with each other?

Absolutely nothing.  But I am a huge fan of these two completely unrelated minfigs.

Peter Reid’s Wasteland

I guess things aren’t too bad in Peter Reid’s (legoloverman) view of the post apocalypse.

Witness the tire swing hanging from the charred tree. Either it was added since the tree burned, or whatever caused it wasn’t bad enough to melt the rubber. Either way, I think there’s a positive message to be found in this photo, even the description reads “End of days…”.

LEGO Zombie Contest reveals theater infested with brain-hungry minifigs

The Big Toy Hut’s LEGO Zombie Contest includes some great entries so far, like this scene in a movie theater by Gettobread:

LEGO zombies in a movie theater

The theater itself includes excellent details, from Bruce Lee smashing through a wall to Snake Plisskin looking ready to escape New York.

Check out the rest of the entries on Flickr. If you want to enter yourself, there’s not much time left — you have until April 21 to build and post a completely new LEGO zombie creation.

Is it too early to mention Zombie Apocafest 2009 yet?

Visions of post-apocalyptic landscapes

The ApocaLEGO landscapes we feature here on The Brothers Brick tend to be fairly crowded with action. Kris Kelvin has, perhaps, a more realistic vision for our mutually assured destruction:

Garbageman13‘s diorama may include a few more survivors, but the detailed building is what I find most striking:

I like LEGO zombies

Well, not in the sense that I want them to eat my minifigs’ brains (well, perhaps some of them), but in the sense that zombies make pretty much anything cooler.

The guys from The Big Toy Hut have put together a batch of minifigs inspired by the zombie megafigs by Andrew Bell:

While we’re at it, here are a couple of really cool Joker minifigs from Dark Knight:

Saving the last flower

Jeramy Cooke (icecoldmilk) recently finished a diorama intended for a certain contest a year ago :). It depicts a lone survivor guarding the last flower on Earth from an invading Black Fantasy creature. I love the dynamic chaos of the landscape and its contrast with a clean black and white tiled interior. Check through each photo in the gallery for notes from the builder on interesting details that you don’t want to miss.

Shelter in a post-apocalyptic storm

Kevin Fedde’s “larger project” Josh alluded to has apparently come to fruition:

LEGO Gordon Freeman rampages through Half Life 2 Nova Prospekt

ORRANGE has been playing Half-Life 2.

There are lots of details to check out in this diorama, including several custom minifigs (note Gordon Freeman himself and the poor dude parasitized by a headcrab).

A Chicken Chaser by Kevin Fedde

I’m a sucker for ApocaLego. Especially the lone survivor type. This little scene by Kevin Fedde is excellent. In fact, he is doing a series, based on this fig’s journal. You can keep track of the updates in Kevin’s ApocaLego folder.

My wife said I couldn’t blog this, as she likes chickens and felt sorry for the poor thing. Don’t tell her that I posted it, okay?
