Towns in the world of LEGO have everything cities in the real world do — police stations, fire engines, trains, hairdressers and veterinarians. Check out all the beautiful buildings and vehicles we’ve featured here on The Brothers Brick.

Misterzumbis LEGO Pakistan truck

It’s no secret that I’m fond of Pakistani trucks and it’s a love I share with Adam Grabowski (misterzumbi). Let’s face it, Adam does it better than me.

And for any doubters the bags are duplo sleeping bags.

Streets of London

SlyOwls LEGO Streets of London

For once I don’t have to rack my brain trying to think of a relevant song. Barney Main (SlyOwl) has already done it for me by basing a diorama on Ralph McTell’s song Streets of London. Be sure to click through the pictures in order to match the song lyrics to the diorama.

Do not attempt this in real life

Sean Kenney presents a public service announcement for bikers. Its message is simple yet striking. Check out Red Light.

Can I have instructions?

For once the answer is yes.

Duqs LEGO Seat Gondola

Ronald Vallenduuk (Duq) has recently added a couple of sets of instructions to Flickr and kindly showed me how to get LPub working again. I actually reverse engineered the seat gondola many years back after seeing a picture of it and coveting it so it’s great to see Ronald making it available to all and sundry.

LEGO 1928 Morris Minor

I used to make more instructions but had to stop for a while due to a problem I had with LPub. With Ronald’s fix I’m back and running so did some instructions for my latest.

Apartment for rent with view of Micropolis Central Station

Erik Smit has built two great Micropolis modules and combined them to show just how much detail you can pack into a very small space.

(Incidentally, BrickCon will have a collaborative MicroCity layout, so it’s not too late to build something and bring it!)

Pictures of 2010 LEGO sets – Atlantis, Toy Story, & more – at Festival RFFL [News]

UPDATE: High-res photos of LEGO Atlantis sets are now out.

——–

Alexander (Shurik) posted pictures of some of the 2010 sets that LEGO has displayed at a sponsored event in Russia called Festival Rossiyskogo Fan Forum Lego. The featured sets include samples from the following themes: Atlantis, Toy Story, Prince of Persia, Star Wars, Power Miners, City, Bionicle and more.

EDIT (TG): These pictures were uploaded due to a miscommunication and have been removed from Flickr at the request of TLG. The local Ambassador, Igor Makarov, asked me to remove the deeplink which I have done.

UPDATE: Target.com also has box art for one of the 2010 LEGO Power Miners sets, 8188 Fire Blaster:

Fendt Xylon tractor by MisterZumbi

New vehicles from Adam Grabowski (MisterZumbi) are always a bit of an event. His latest is a Fendt Xylon, a German tractor.

Amidst the snowy mountains...

This was just too good to pass up. The Schubert family created this amazing Alpine Village, which was displayed at BrickFair. The only photos appear to be on Brickshelf from Abe (scrope), another attendee.

Dmacs LEGO DT-75 Tractor

Warning! This model is 100% LEGO.

Dmac has combined practicality and raw beauty into his DT-75 tractor making a truly impressive beast. That plush seat looks so comfy I’d like to shrink myself to scale and relax.

As we live a life of ease

Nick Dean's Hotel Imperial

Nick Dean has drawn inspiration from the game Bioshock moved art deco under the sea to create this excellent Art Deco inspired undersea hotel with full interior. There’s too many good details to describe so I’ll leave it to you to scour each picture for the things you like.

Chapel in the hills

McBricker takes us on a journey into the hills of Crete, where this lovely little chapel nestles against the side of a cliff.

LEGO Greek Orthodox chapel

The tree, the goats, the sky, and the old nun walking with a cane all add depth to this scene.

Sky Victorian by Orlando

L. G. Orlando has built a rather ornate little Victorian house. I’m loving the details on this.
