1,000,000 Points is what Angus MacLane wins for building the cast of my favorite show on TV, 30 Rock. Here’s Frank Rossitano (Judah Friedlander), complete with trucker hat:
…plus four more, including the lovely Liz Lemon:
I want to go to there.

Three-score barrels of powder below / To prove old England’s overthrow
Even though today is Guy Fawkes Day, I do not recommend burning this CubeDude effigy built by Paul Lee (polywen):
LEGO does, after all, give off a rather acrid smell when burnt…
I would put a tax on all people who stand in water!
I had the distinct pleasure of seeing John Cleese in person last night at the Moore Theatre in Seattle. As my first post after being away for a couple of weeks, I have the distinct pleasure tonight of blogging this CubeDude Gumby by Iain Heath (Ochre Jelly):
LEGO Rock Band CubeDude has a green mohawk and regrettable tattoos
Ryan Wood (lights) rocks. Also, he built a CubeDude, which also rocks.
I love the tattoos on his arm, and how he’s holding the whammy bar.

LEGO Star Wars Slave Leia as a CubeDude – CubeBabe? CubeGirl? She’s CubeLicious!
Beyond the originals by Angus MacLane, my favorite CubeDude so far is this lovely Princess Leia as Jabba’s slave girl by Larry Lars.
I love the fact that Larry’s Leia is less, uh, cubical than most other CubeDudes. Beyond juvenile references to CubeDude anatomy, Larry has incorporated some really interesting techniques, including LEGO coins as earrings. Larry explains:
The coins are squeezed in between the head and the 1×1 round plates connected to the underside of headlight bricks. Since there is an edge on the coins they stay there.
CubeDudes of the Verse
Chris Doyle joins the CubeDude revolution with an awesome batch inspired by characters from Firefly and Serenity.
Don’t miss all of Chris’s CubeDudes on Reasonably Clever, as well as the growing number of adorable little guys in the Flickr group.
CubeDudes Invade!
Angus Maclane has been building like crazy lately. The craziness has manifested itself as CubeDudes, which appear to be famous characters with cubes for heads. They are adorable! He just posted oodles of these awesome little dudes. Click on the pictures to go to a gallery of related figures.
Which is your favorite?
