This LEGO bot combats DRM. Designed by Peter Purgathofer the Mindstorms bot holds a Kindle, flips through pages and takes pictures. He stresses this was a private project, not part of the Vienna University of Technology, not an invitation or instruction on how to get around digital rights management. Instead, Purgathofer explains this is a […]

Sound of the Sky: LEGO Takemikazuchi
Sound of the Sky is an anime from A-1 Pictures and Aniplex that follows a young woman called Kanata Sorami who joins the military platroon in the town of Seize. It’s a post-apocalyptic war fought after humanity’s tech levels have regressed from sci-fi to early 20th century standards. This clever LEGO design shows one of […]
LEGO Marvel Super Heroes game trailer
The LEGO computer games have been a big hit. We’ve had LEGO Marvel boxsets and so a LEGO Marvel Super Heroes computer game makes a lot of sense. This is a chunky trailer, over 2 minutes long, but it’s worth a watch. There’s a plot which echoes The Chronicles of Doom and the Marvel Heroes […]
The pure evil blocks of LEGO Cthulhu
This impressive Cthulhu build was put together by Carl Merriam. To see the skill of the build just take a second to look at all the curves and smooth lines. This is a LEGO construct after all. These pieces come from dinosaur sets, snake models and other carefully repurposed blocks. Via Tested.com.
The incredible LEGO Marquis
The Marquis is a LEGO construction that hangs from a tripod of plastic pipes. You can see the effect in Peter Mowry’s Flickr. Or you can skip the suspense and see what the 56 inch tall build looks like against a backdrop. Mowry’s giant build reflects what a spaceship designed to be part of a […]
Spider LEGO: Unending Thirst
This fearsome spider was created by lego builder Masa of Kaliphlin. The title of the work is Unending Thirst which is a pretty scary title for a giant spider diorama. Via Brothers Brick.
The LEGO Movie trailer
I wonder how long they spent on the name of the movie. I think they could have called it anything they want but that we’d all just call it the LEGO movie instead. The time, instead, must have gone on the script. Okay so it’s a Muppets like “save us from the baddie with jokes” […]
LEGO war map
This is an usual LEGO build but the quality is clear. This is the sort of map you might expect to see on the wooden table in a field General’s tent headquarters. I can see why it reminds some of the start of a Game of Thrones, the TV version that is, too. The LEGO […]
LEGO facehugger
It’s amazing what people build out of LEGO. Some constructions are more dangerous than others, though. Deviant artist Carlos Valero has this LEGO facehugger on his roster of creations. It’s too scale too. Big enough to eat your face. Lovely.
An X-Wing Fighter is the largest LEGO ever built
The unveiling a life sized X-Wing Fighter in New York this week made the news and drew huge crowds. Joe Meno, editor-in-chief of BrickJournal was lucky enough to get a secret and personal tour ahead of the big day. His write up appears on Brothers Brick. The model uses more than 5 million bricks, was […]
