We all love the brick-built greebles that decorate an intricate sci-fi model. But, sometimes it’s just as enjoyable to see how a builder incorporates some of LEGO’s pieces that feature pre-existing sculpted detail. Case in point, this bounty hunter droid by Toni A, which uses Technic and Bionicle parts to such perfection that you’d be forgiven for not knowing it was made from LEGO at all. Pre-sculpted piping, rivets, and pistons blend together in perfect harmony. And it’s easy to imagine those eyes shining at you from the darkened corridor of your disabled spaceship, as this robot closes in for the kill.

Bile and tears overflow, drowning everything in sorrow
Man, I really brought the room down with that title! But sometimes good art has to make you feel a bit down in the dumps. Take this new LEGO creation by Toni A, for example. It’s a tentacled creature called St. Abholos. It’s all part of a larger campaign to totally squig you the heck out, and I think it’s working. It’s more of a Cosmic Horror dread, which is much deeper than the sorrow you feel when you lose a comb. While you ponder your own insignificance in this universe, why not take a gander at some other like-minded Lovecraftian Horrors all hellbent on squelching your good time.
