Electronic Warfare Frigate “Kitsune” by Tim Zarki
I’ll repeat my silly multilingual joke I left as a comment on the photo: “Foxy!” (Kitsune means “fox” in Japanese.) And does this represent the fifth of five cool microspace ships? Or is that an “S” that stands for “Sexy?” Hmmm…
More than meets the eye
Microscale links for August 12, 2007
With both ApocaLEGO and microspace building still going strong, I’m reduced to playing catch-up with roundup posts like this one. It’s a nice problem to have! :-D
A virtual LEGO U.S.S. Sulaco from Aliens by BrickCommander (via Klocki) and The Khet Nasari Relic by Tim Zarki (via Moyblik):
Next, two creations by Andrew Lee (both via MicroBricks):
Finally, every microspace roundup post needs at least one creation from nnenn. This week’s is “Hurassa heavy-dropship, TB12 Porcilm” (via Snoikle):
Salmamir Torpedo Frigate by Adrian Florea
Adrian Florea presents Salmamir, a microscale torpedo frigate. He also demonstrates the innate swooshability of microspace creations:

Excellent Teddy Roosevelt. Great submission, Dan Sibley!
Will M. recreates the mystery of the Dutch minifig, in microscale!
The mysterious, gigantic minifig on a beach in The Netherlands has left TBB readers all abuzz. Builder Will M. has recreated this intriguing scene, in microscale no less!
Giant Lego man found in Dutch sea
AMSTERDAM (Reuters) – A giant, smiling Lego man was fished out of the sea in the Dutch resort of Zandvoort on Tuesday.Workers at a drinks stall rescued the 2.5-metre (8-foot) tall model with a yellow head and blue torso.
“We saw something bobbing about in the sea and we decided to take it out of the water,” said a stall worker. “It was a life-sized Lego toy.”
A woman nearby added: “I saw the Lego toy floating towards the beach from the direction of England.”
The toy was later placed in front of the drinks stall.
Excellent work, Will! You had me laughing so hard I could barely blog this.

The “Brickshelf crisis” seems to have interrupted the momentum of Microspacetopia, and ApocaLEGO (yes, we made a category), but that doesn’t mean people aren’t still building cool new microscale creations.
First up, a fueler by Cygnus, and (my favorite of this batch) a nine-piece creation called “Earwig” by Ean:

My current obsession may be all about microspace, but Shannon Young‘s obsession runs along more metropolitan lines. (Via MicroBricks.)

Thanks for the tip, reader Preda! :-D
Tim Zarki’s back is really, really mad!
Well, one can infer that from the name of his most recent microscale spaceship. Here’s Tim‘s Spinal Fury:
