I see a little silhouetto of a man...
Scaramouche, scaramouche! Will you do the fandango?
Happy with his Prince minifigs, Izzo is on a musical roll. Here’s Queen:

Mnup Yyyeshnit Nidip! Meep norp.
I have no idea what I just said. I hope I didn’t offend any aliens who read this blog (you know who you are). Brickshelfer osk certainly captured their likeness in an excellent batch of alien minifigs:

Pippin Reed: 2084
Dennnis Coh is participating in the FBTB Forums R-Wing contest, but what caught my eye was his minifig pilot:
With a great brick-built weapon and excellent color coordination, Dennis’ version of Pippin Reed is smokin’ hot.
(Only after typing up the Technorati tags below did I notice just how much of a mashup this minifig is: With a name and head from Adventurers, built for a Star Wars contest, using an old Spyrius torso, Pippin makes an excellent Space minifig.)
Space Pirates! Aliens! Gorgeous Women!
I credit Azumu as one of the bloggers who got me into blogging just over a year ago, with his regular “best of Brickshelf” posts on LEGO-BINGO. But Azumu is also a consummate builder — his brick-built Pokemon are especially fantastic, even if you’re not a fan of little creatures who only say their own name.
So it was wonderful to click over to his blog post and see some great minifigs inspired by comic book artist Buichi Terasawa’s Space Adventure COBRA. Here’s the space pirate himself:

Monster Hunter 2 Minifigs
Okay, so it turns out that the series of minifigs Sugegasa has been posting lately are based on the upcoming PS2 RPG Monster Hunter 2 from Capcom, and the minifigs were actually built by Sugegasa’s younger brother.
Anyway, here’s the full set:
I like the improvements Sugegasa The Younger has made to the fig with the bow, and the two newest figs are great. I guess talent runs in the family.
¡Lucha Libre!
