Take the City!

The current Iron Builder throw-down between Maddison and Lowell has been nothing short of spectacular and my favorite of the series to date. Although there have been many outstanding competitions in the past, I’m not sure I’ve ever seen two opponents that were so evenly matched in both style and productivity. While I’m not surprised that the Aztec God of Reseda has turned in a bevy of clever models (one only has to refer to his legendary battle with Legohaulic for proof of his Iron greatness), I am forced to wonder what the hell has gotten into Chris Maddison (cmaddison). Please excuse an American a baseball reference, but it’s kind of like a punch-and-judy journeyman middle-infielder suddenly became a power-hitting all-star overnight. As soon as I’m done with this posting I plan on contacting the folks at Iron Builder to suggest that Maddison be subjected to a drug screening and background check immediatately.

In the meanwhile, please enjoy Maddison’s latest hammer-fist to the crotch of Lowell. The build reminds me of the opening to Game of Thrones opening sequence, and recalls any number of strategy board games.

Take the City!

In short, you can’t stop C-Mad, you can only hope to contain him. Lowell must go down!

Hear Me Roar

Now, I’ll be the first to admit that I have not yet made it to the third installment of Mr. Martin’s epic tale. I cannot claim to have seen any of this season yet, either (which I assure you is very sad). I can, however, tell you that I’ve been flickr-stalking Dave Ware (Brickwares) since I caught a sneak-peak of this mosaic on facebook.

Clearly my flickr-stalking paid off. Because this is just stunning, and regardless of your opinion of the Lannister family (or any of their words), you can certainly take a moment to appreciate this mosaic.

Peter Dinklage did.

If you lean more towards the sci-fi end of the spectrum, Dave’s got something for you, too.

The Iron Throne Made of Lego

The Iron Throne, that notoriously uncomfortable chair at the heart of the turmoil in Westeros in George R.R. Martin’s A Song of Ice and Fire series, has been wonderfully recreated in Lego by Jacob Nion. And of course, to accompany it is the beloved, if ill-fated, Ned Stark, Hand of the King. Jacob is following the styling of the HBO television series A Game of Thrones in his interpretation of the throne and of Stark, and nicely enough, Ned Stark is easy to recreate in Lego form thanks to actor Sean Bean already having been made in Lego in the character of Boromir.
