Matt De Lanoy (Pepa Quin) built Andy’s room in minifig scale – Toy Story minifig scale that is. Thus it’s quite a large display at 30″X30″. If you’re in Chicago, you can see this creation debut at NILTC’s Christmas Show on December 11-12.
Meanwhile, you should check out the gallery of photos on Flickr, which includes details such as the Buzz Lightyear mosaic and the setup.
Andrew Lee (onosendai2600) has just posted a cool mecha that he calls “Fluffy Bunny.” While it certainly doesn’t look fluffy to me, it does have a bit of a resemblance to a bunny. I also suspect that he may have found some inspiration in artwork for the upcoming film Sucker Punch.
Whether Andrew was inspired by that art or not, he’s done a wonderful job. The ear-like antennae on the body of the mecha really add to the bunny feeling. He’s also used just light touch of pink (a rare color, to be sure), that adds a bit of character to the creation.
If the Giga-Grader appeared in the stores I’d channel my inner 3-year old and chuck a tantrum. Shannon Sproule (Shannon Ocean) had better be bringing this LEGO delight to Brickvention for me to see in the brick.
And since I’m trained as a mathematician I’ll summarise with an equation: Tonka toys + M-Tron + (60s vibe)^2 + Rocking Robot = Awesome.
Brad Bergman made a full size window display of an advent calendar. Each of the 24 room contains a vignette and represents a day of December leading up to Christmas. Although you can already see the rooms revealed, Brad is posting detail shots of each vignette daily along with a description. You can follow the postings on his Flickr photostream.
Thanks for the tip Dylan!
There’s a certain beauty hidden in this hover ship by Cole Blaq. It’s blocky and chunky, but in all the right ways. I love the various angles that come together in the cockpit area on the front, and the use of tiles sticking out to represent armored windows is great.
The icing on the cake? It can carry that little truck posed in front of it.

Cool, arent they?
It’s amazing what can be done with cheese slopes, and Katie Walker knows that better than most of us when it comes to creating designs and patterns. Her latest Christmas window is simply a delight, just in time for the holidays.
With the release of the new Pharoah’s Quest sets, many people bought the magnets, as they are an easy way to get the more desirable minifigs. However, the magnet figs were glued to their bases.
When asked for an explanation, LEGO said that all magnet figs will be glued from now on. There was a contractual issue with the magnets in the licensed themes and they had to be glued. In order to make things more efficient in production, the decision was made to glue all magnet figs rather than run two seperate magnet lines (glued and unglued). This has caused a lot of consternation in the community.
