Not content with the sharks with frickin’ laser beams in 8633 Speedboat Rescue, Hobo4Evar attaches a number of other potentially deadly accessories to the new shark:
If he doesn’t get you with the missile pod or gatling gun, that second-hand smoke is sure to kill.
Karf Oolhu has given his monkeys wings! Well, jetpacks, but it amounts to the same thing: Freakin’ Flying Monkeys!
Another one of mine. I was playing around with the new Lego shark and was comparing him with the previous renditions. I think this was inevitable!
We’ll end our nautically themed evening on a more peaceful note, with a gorgeous coral reef scene by Shannon Ocean:
That brick-built hammerhead shark is truly fantastic, as are the variety of other undersea flora and fauna (including skeletons as bleached coral).
Reader Giom sends word of an eight-legged LEGO Technic walker he built inspired by the “kinetic sculptures” of Theo Jansen:
For comparison, here’s a cool video (which happens to be a BMW ad; oh well):
Mike Crowley, aka Count Blockula, has done it again. But this time he does it on the farm.
Check out his Hen and Pig, as well.
Goopy the Troll may not be smart, but he gets the job done and in a hurry. He and his team of down-on-their-luck horses are the fastest in the business. Hence his title of “King of the Gong Farmers“! Next time your castle’s cesspit needs cleaning, call Goopy. He would appreciate the business.
Patrick Biggs (Ahava516 on Flickr) built an impressive and formidable Bionicle dragon for the BBC (Bionicle Based Creation) Contest #50 on BZPower. Check out the scales on the neck and the use of ninja hang-glider flaps for the wings (a technique which reminds me of Bryce McGlone’s Dragon).
…but someone actually used Galidor pieces and used them well. Steve Puckett pulled this off with a figure called “Zantanicus”, among others. I salute him for a job well done!

Danny Rice (Big_X) isn’t known to be prolific, but when he builds, something amazing always results. Check out this life-like scupture of an eagle, which I had passed off earlier as an actual model while browsing thumbnails.
BisonFuehrer recently posted this award-winning creation. Though built back in ’97, it still has the ability to impress.
