Ridin’ the Big Thunder

I admit to being a sucker for Disney; I was 23 when I made my first trip. There’s a certain joy in seeing Mainstreet USA for the first time.

So with that in mind, this creation by Fat Tony brings me to that point, of being at Disney for the first time, and the sheer joy of riding the rides and seeing that magic.

 

 

LEGO Pineapple Grenade

This pineapple grenade by Nick Jensen is truly a blast. I have a thing for 1:1 Lego weapons and this one is a beauty. I don’t think I’ve ever commented on the fine, good looks of a grenade but there is a first time for everything.

Aquestrian Metal

This piece of work by David Collins (intrond) fits in a unique genre that I can’t decide. It looks like a mix between a spaceship and a mechanical creature. The color blocking and the multifaceted chunks are pleasing to look at. A few stickers add the vital details.

Back in Black

Mecha expert Ryuhei Kawai (Kwi-Chang) brings us yet another interesting piece. There are cool red hoses over the top, pistons on the back, and some crazy-long forearms. I can’t help but get a District 9 vibe from it, too.
