German LEGO blog The Brick Time has noticed photos I’d missed of the new minifigs in the summer 2007 LEGO Star Wars sets.
I’m rather excited about the Naboo pilot and redesigned Anakin Skywalker minifigs in 7660 Naboo Starfighter:
But I’m very excited by Kit Fisto in 7661 Jedi Starfighter:
King Leonidas I of Sparta led his men in the Battle of Thermopylae, and will be starring in an upcoming feature-length in-game cut-scene — I mean movie! — titled “300”.
Jared Burks follows up on the Ghostrider minifig he created recently with another movie-inspired minifig, the great king himself:
Izzo has done it again, but this time its a confrontation of epic proportions. He has recently posted a diorama called Engagement and it definitely engaging! He refers to this as scene 01, hopefully that means that more is on the way…
As soon as I got the above diorama posted, Izzo posted another one! Scene 02 is called Escape.
Chuck Citrin envisions a world in which United Nations peacekeepers ride ashore on four-legged mecha and ATVs with very small windscreens.
The Cerberus LAV:
The Cougar urban ATV:
One thing my own Gears of War characters lacked was a properly brick-built Lancer rifle.
Alex Peacock corrects this situation with a great Cog armed with a Lancer of his own design:

Hippotam over at Polish LEGO blog Klocki has found some really cool fine art in which the subjects have been turned into minifigs.
Here’s Edvard Munch’s “The Scream” LEGO’d by Joel Grannas:
And a self-portrait by Vincent Van Gogh LEGO’d by “nismo4banger”:

Martin Jaspers is at it again, this time using “jellybean” colors for his castle characters.
A pair of veterans scarred by battle:
A pair of younger soldiers guarding a crystal:
Alan Saunders (well, actually, Kent Brockman) says,
I, for one, welcome our insect overlords. I’d like to remind them that as a trusted TV personality I could be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground sugar caves.
Heh heh.
Via Polish LEGO blog Klocki Lego dla dorosłych, here’s MisterZumbi’s adorable five-wide Citroen DS:
Naturally, MisterZumbi created some fashionable Parisians to go with the classic French car:
Check out that purse! And I’m no fan of real-life poodles, but what minifig Parisian would be complete without a brick-built pooch?
Jared Burks (aka “Kaminoan”) and Emily Brownlow (aka “RecluceMage”) are best known for their minifig customization work — waterslide decals and resin-cast accessories, respectively.
This is what you get when these two work together:
Awesome. :twisted:
I’ve had my eye on Jas Nagra’s Flickr photostream ever since I noticed the mecha he’s been working on. In the meantime, here are some great minifigs:
