Jas Nagra may not be prolific on Flickr yet (though there’s some great stuff in his old Brickshelf gallery), but what he’s got there now is pretty awesome.
His latest mecha has commenters waxing profane. ;-)

Wash’O’bot!!!
I can’t stop laughing, so I’ll just let Tim Goddard tell you all about his new bot himself:
“Wash day blues? Let Wash’O’bot wash, dry and iron your cloak for you!”
Ha! Excellent.
Infected mecha
Toying with the idea of the black fantasy virus infecting a mecha, I altered my Project Bley Mecha to display filaments of the virus infection. The concept of using Brickarms grenades to simulate tumors played out wonderfully.
Horace Cheng roundup for March 5, 2008
With three fantastic creations in a row, Horace Cheng (Flickr) gets his own roundup post. :-)

Mechatronics
Today is a wonderful day for fans of LEGO mecha. I’m going for a triple post due to the flood of excellent designs.
Firstly Lukas presents this amazing Industrial Grade P-8 Lifter Robot. It’s tiny, it’s incredibly attractive and it has just become my favourite small scale mecha design.
Secondly Aaron Andrews has demonstrated his skill at both mecha and fantasy with The Troll Crusher, a ‘dwarf punk’ creation.
Finally Soren Roberts gives a cute overload with Danboard.
I’m all out of gushing words. I just plain love all three.
Black Fantasy wrap up
The Black Fantasy contest has just ended, and there are has been a myriad of entries, including a score of stunningly horrific creatures. The following highlights some of the amazing entries submitted towards the end of the contest.
The Final Horror, by Dene Quest.
Kermit the Destroyer, by Megan Rothrock.
Howl of Lamentations Unending, by Justin Vaughn.
Cyclopean Spawn of Stars, by Mark Stafford.
The Demon of Madness, by Justin Stebbins.
Infinite Sadness, by Chris Edwards.
Soren Roberts builds a very small city and then blows it up
Check out the brick-built laser blast in this lovely little scene from Soren Roberts. The squieu-esque mecha is certainly cool, but look closely — the laser blast is just amazing!
Kwi Chang gets industrial
Mecha builder Kwi Chang puts together one of his pictures from a trip to the port of Chiba with his latest mecha to create a very cool effect.
LEGO Exo-Force theme to end in 2008 [LEGO]
The LEGO Exo-Force theme was received with mixed feelings back in 2005. Nevertheless, many fans have embraced the theme in the intervening years — if for no other reason than that it yielded a plethora of new minifigs and other new parts.
So, it is once again with mixed emotions that I share the news of the end of the LEGO Exo-Force theme at the end of this year. Personally, I think the 2008 Exo-Force sets were some of the best-designed sets of the theme, so it’s disappointing to say goodbye to the theme just as it seems to be coming into its own.
Tim Zarki’s latest robot is round, spindly, and goes “Beeboop Bip”
I’m with Kevoh on this robot from Tim “Spook” Zarki — I imagine this thing a thousand feet tall, delicately stepping over the skyscrapers of a future metropolis.
Mark Kelso’s Texas Ranger
Using leftovers from his last creation, Mark Kelso creates a fine walker mech, it’s his first mecha so he says, but it look to me like he’s been at it for years. Keep the MOCs comin’ Mark!
Izzo’s back
Seems like forever since we’ve featured a new mecha by Izzo, but I suppose it’s only been a month and a half or so. Still, let’s get our Izzo fix.
