Pointy!

Spartan M65 Hardsuit by lego2000
lego2000/m20xr has designed a hardsuit reminiscent of Maschinen Krieger, and it’s really rather cool. Here it is with an “optional 75 mm chain gun”:
Cheesy...in a good way...
LEGO Ambassador, Classic-Castler and LEGO builder extrodonaire Nelson Yrizarry has done it again and created his own new subtheme: CheeseBots. Wallow in it’s cheesy goodness, and check out the intergration of yellow minifig accessories, including mugs, lifes vests, jackhammer, goblets and more. His constuction techniques aren’t bad either. ;)
ED-209 from Robocop by Tim Gould
CG LEGO is really growing on me, thanks to Tim Gould. Here’s his latest, ED-209 from the Robocop movies:
MadCat BattleMech by DARKspawn
Brickshelfer DARKspawn may be better known for his many castle creations, but his “MadCat BattleMech” inspired by Battletech and MechWarrior isn’t half bad either:
Nice use of the Catwoman torso for the pilot.
Knight-Bot by Moko
It hasn’t been long since I posted something by Moko (is it ever?), but I haven’t posted a mecha by him in a while. Moko’s latest is a rather shiny robot inspired by knights of old:
Izzo’s Test 43
It’s been a while since I’ve blogged one of Izzo’s mecha. Today, he plays around with the latest revision to his basic frame. Here are the results, a great tan and dark grey mech:

News: More Summer 2007 Set Pictures
And for those of our readers living in a cave or spider-hole, or perhaps held incommunicado against your will, to Nate’s list of summer 2007 Castle box art, I’m compelled to add City, Exo-Force, Batman, Star Wars, etc. (All via Eurobricks, where you can see new pics from Creator and Technic as well.)
My favorites…
From Star Wars, 7661 Jedi Starfighter with Hyperdrive Ring (Kit Fisto!!!):
From Batman, 7786 some sort of Batcopter with Scarecrow’s biplane:
From City, 7998 dump truck:
From Exo-Force, a very large mecha:
Drum roll… The new space theme, Mars Mission[!] (Apply the exclamation point at your own discretion.) I like the drop-ship thingy:
I’ll definitely get this drop-ship, but I’ll withhold judgement on Mars Mission as a whole until we can see better pictures of the minifigs.
Hine Corp. FDX-39 by nnenn
Much less colorful but no less awesome than his last batch of mecha (previous post), mystery-person nnenn presents an all-black mecha. I don’t know what a “core-point suppressor” is, and I don’t really care to learn what transpired during the “Yulnagii offensive,” but dang is this mecha cool:
Vaughan James’ 5ive
The thing I like so much about micro-mecha is that they’re built of tons of tiny pieces. Vaughan James’ recent mecha illustrates this nicely, following in the footsteps of master micro mecha builders like zizy2 and Squieu.
Here’s Vaughan’s “5ive”:
Micro-Mecha Madness!
Japanese builders zizy2 and squieu both build fantastic micro-mecha. What better way to highlight them than in one convenient post?
Here’s zizy2’s “m40”:
And Squieu’s “Gigas”:
