We all love a good LEGO Gundam or Macross mecha, but LEGO builders everywhere are also creating excellent models of their own designs. Have a look at them here.

Mobile Suit Gundam Wing

Mike Szita (OrangeKnight Studios) has been building a series of microscale mecha from the Gundam universe over the last while, and he’s just posted a group shot of the squadron that shows off their variety.

Reinforcements arrive in style

Raoul Baldwin (Raoulosos) built a giant troop transport craft to carry infantry units and vehicles into the heat of combat. The mix of greens and black creates a camouflaged pattern while the tan interior adds a beautiful contrast.

MaK SAFS Space Type Pit-Viper by Tromas

TR Brownridge (.Tromas) has posted another inspiration model for the MaK Starfighter Contest. It’s great to see a classic MaK hardsuit, and this one has some lovely details — not least of which the sticker/decal use. Notice in particular the thin warning stripe below the floodlight on the front.

One grand Teuton

This mecha is quite impressive. I am not usually in favor of rebuilds but this one by Lord Dane is the bee’s knees. This one has quite the intimidating aura going on.

It brings flowers

I was in the mood to build a mecha, and I wanted to add a slightly disturbing twist to it. More description is on Flickr if you’re curious to find out what it’s doing.

MaK B3 – KriegsLäufer by Fredoichi

Speaking of MaK, Fredoichi returns to form with this little quadruped beauty, sporting minifig bike helmets as some excellently rounded grills.

From Russia with love

Though the inspiration for this little mecha by Chris (Ironsniper) may appear to be tachikoma from Ghost in the Shell, Chris has made this little arachnid all his own.

Not all giant robots play with guns

Douglas Adams once said that most sensible citizens of the galaxy find cricket to be in rather bad taste. But that’s earthlings for you. Not one to leave well-enough alone, Mark Stafford takes the game to a new level by adding giant robotic suits to the mix. I wish the PCA would get behind this idea. I’d actually watch the game then.

I have the power of the world in my belly

Todd Burke has some strange ideas, like a civilization of walking batteries. I’m not sure I want to know how he thought of that. Regardless, the belly-powered creature is rather unique, so you should check it out. Just don’t rub its tummy.

Warrior Bot is here to take you down

Sometimes the smaller builds are the most impressive. This arena warrior, by Frenald McRackel, is quite striking. It’s a very solid, cohesive build. Everything just works together perfectly.

Exo Force Gamma

Ted Andes wasn’t satisfied with making an awesome micromech army. He had to give each one a minifig pilot and make a poster for the team. And he had to ensure a better gender mix.

Organic Mech has no guns

Tyler Clites is stepping off into lesser explored territory. He says he was trying to make a mech that was more organic looking and didn’t have guns. I’d say he accomplished that and then some.
