Phil Memmer built an UCS-style model of the probe droid, making good use of the quarter saucer pieces. The detailed mechanical arms are simply fascinating to look at.
When Okay Yaramanoglu used Lego Toy Story minifigs to create Star Wars characters, the result is both startling and hilarious. See if you can identify who is who in this photo. You can find the answers in Okay’s Flickr photostream.
Star Wars Celebration V took place last weekend. The video below has an incredible time-lapse footage of the public assembling a 15-foot wide Lego mural along with a good coverage of LEGO’s presence at the event.

The summer/winter (depending on where you live) 2010 LEGO Star Wars sets are now available from the LEGO Shop.
8128 Cad Bane’s Speeder has five minifigs, including some dude with a really funky hat.
The big additions are the 8098 Clone Turbo Tank (again with the funky hat) and new 8129 AT-AT Walker
Personally, I’m most excited about 8089 Hoth Wampa Cave.
Shipping is free for orders over $75 through the end of July, and remember, the LEGO VIP Program now works for Web orders — two more reasons to support the LEGO fan sites you visit (even if it’s not this one) by buying your LEGO online.
This set has just been unveiled at San Diego Comic Con, and we have photos, a video, and the press release below. The video should be working at 3pm EST. It isn’t yet, but hopefully will be soon.

We don’t normally point out reviews of new Lego sets, but this review of 8128 Cad Bane’s Speeder by Eurobricks member Inconspicuous is very well done with great photos. The set should be available on LEGO Shop at Home this August.
This upcoming weekend at Comic Con, you can purchase a set of exclusive Clone Wars CubeDudes designed by Angus MacLane. There will be 450 sets of 5 figures available for $75 each.

Or maybe it’s my own bad pun that bothers me. I do really like this ship, by -infomaniac-, though. It does a great job of capturing the shape of an insect in a space ship. The placement of the cockpit at the center is great concealment, it took me awhile to even spot it. I’m also a fan of the generally armored look, especially the use of minifig bases.
Junsier returns to Flickr with his best version of the Slave I. The almost sculptural quality of this creation captures the difficult curves of the ship. Jabba won’t have to wait long for his prize.
