Marek Markiewicz‘s Kenworth W900 Rotator tow truck has it all and is the best large truck creation I have seen. Beyond aesthetics and resemblance, the truck boosts a sick array of Power Functions features including lights, remote control with steering, pneumatics, and countless motors that drive even the tiniest detail. You have to see the video to be convinced.
Iain Grant has posted a video build of the upcoming 10211 Grand Emporium scheduled for February 20 release. From the box to the completed model, Iain has captured the great details that make this set a must have for many Lego fans.
Torri Ares‘s Victory 2 Gundam not only transforms from Core Fighter mode to mobile suite mode but it does so with music synchronization. The included video is a must-see, featuring a time-lapse build, transformation process and more with stellar presentation.
With two posts bashing the iPhone today, I figured I’d balance things out (beyond writing all my posts on a MacBook) by highlighting something pretty cool that made the rounds of the interwebs a couple weeks ago.
Ladies and gentlemen, behold the itty-bitty steering wheel for iPhone games:

Now, we normally don’t post things without attribution, but I can’t seem to find the original builder (the YouTube video doesn’t appear to have been posted by the builder). Any help tracking down the genius who designed this would be very much appreciated.
I have no idea what LEGO CL!CK is about — probably because I don’t have the patience to wade through the pseudo-interactivity of someone’s love affair with Flash. But that doesn’t stop this video from being gorgeous.
Perhaps CL!CK has something to do with the vaguely useless iPhone app FBTB reviewed (or vice versa), which had at least one of us fooled. Regardless, the video is whimsical and fantastic, as is the dude’s mustache.
This video that introduces the upcoming Hero Factory line in summer 2010 looks pretty cool with its dramatic animations, but I couldn’t help but notice that the narrator mentioned hero 10 times throughout the ~1 minute clip. I have a hunch I’ll be hearing this word a lot more than Bionicle in the months ahead.
We interrupt our scheduled blogging with a message from David Pickett (fallentomato): orange is the new green.
That’s right, the orcs are bringing the battle to you in their moving castle built by Tyler Clites (Legohaulic). Chalk one up for the bad guys!
This video demonstrates the moving castle in a funny short, it’s a must see!
TT Games has released a trailer for their upcoming LEGO Harry Potter video game. It doesn’t show a lot of gameplay footage, but reveals the studio’s signature humor.

While this clone shock trooper maxifig by Olivier may look like another solid LEGO sculpture, it’s actually quite different because you can make something happen by sticking a pin into it. Check out the video to see what I mean.
