Spider 2.0

Spider 2.0, originally uploaded by 8er.....

While at first glance this may seem to be a very small creation it is in fact much larger than what first meets the eye. This micro 3-legged spider bot by 8er instantly caught my eye when it came up on my flickr homepage, and when I saw that he was a pretty unknown builder, I knew it was a must.

I'm Back

Well after a rather long absence from Lego and blogging, I am back to blogging. Though I may be in a dark age, I am still very interested in seeing what others build and what not. I just seem unable to build something myself. Well, off to find something to blog!

Serious Buisness

A tragic event has taken place in the Lego community. The popular Lego MOCist Nate “nnenn” Nielson has passed away. He definitely wasn't "un-sung" but I am sure everyone will agree that he was truly a hero of the community. Head over to Brothers-Brick to read Keith Goldman's excellent post commemorating the passing of this amazing builder. You will also find information on how FOLs are mobilizing to recognize him. Man, life is so short.....

Yes. More Hardsuits.

I immediately loved this little Power Suit by Brickshelf user "drabadan". The suit fits a fig and cleverly utilizes a Bionicle mask and a hocky slammer face for the cockpit. There are several different variants as well as other suits in his Brickshelf. Check em' all out.

Littlehaulic's Tan House

Legohaulic has proven time, and time again his absolute, unrelenting supremacy on the fields of Lego, and his little sister -Littlehaulic- has burst onto the scene with a ferociousness only matched by her brother... Except she builds ladies with potty hats. (not exactly the same as Tyler's recent Mechanical Terror, but still fantastic)

Littlehaulic's house is absolutely chocked full of wonderful little details, from a beautifully decorative interior -which looks like something straight out of d-higdon's playbook- to a cute little "spoon gnome."

In short, Littlehaulic seems to have picked up on a LOT of her elder brother's big talent.

Life Inside a Planet Destroyer

Missiles. Arms. Treads. Greebs.

sqiddster's latest creation, the LLRU, is really great, including lots of wonderful detail while being fully remote controlled.

Also, this beast is massive, not only in brick but also in scale. See that micro Enforcer Battle platform in the corner? Here's the original minifig scale model by nnenn. Yeah.

And just look at that missile launcher. <3

Enigma of the Wingèd Scarabax

This absolutely stunning Technic MOC makes wonderful use of multiple strange pieces from the hull, to the wings. Its creator -the BCth- has artfully melded the color-scheme together, in a beautiful, breathtaking fashion. the BCth is proving to be one of the greatest Bionicle MOCers around.
