It’s a great space bug queen diorama, by Alex Fojtik (BrickFX). This is a truly immersive display, incorporating some great details. My favorite is the dripping slime, but I’ve also been known to love hexagons. The scattered space helmet eggs look great, and must have been quite a challenge to pose for different angled photos.
I usually steer clear of multi-coloured brick-because-it’s-in-fashion art and design but I have to confess this particular boardroom table caught my eye. Not only is it genuinely made entirely of real LEGO (22k pieces of it no less) but there is no glue involved and a bunch of cute details including the client’s name.
As an added bonus the designers have included a 2-minute stop motion video of its creation down the bottom of the page.
Joel Baker constructed a sculpture of the scene from Toy Story where Sid pulls out Woody and Buzz at the claw crane. Say, if there were no glass, would you still have to pay and use the claw? Check out more views on Joel’s Flickr set.
HKLUG has posted a ton of excellent pictures from the 2010 Anime Festival their Facebook page.
You should definitely take the time to check them out. The pictures posted here really caught me eye, but there are many, many more.

Ralph Savelsberg (Mad physicist) has built a colorful and complex model of the Scania R500 recovery truck, featuring remote-controlled drive and steering. I love the half plate inset on the sides and the colored lines that run across the vehicle. As with Ralph’s style, you can see the exposed studs on the top that contributes to the sculptural quality of this model.
Check out the video to see the truck in action.
Here is one that I missed. TKH did a superb job of capturing the saucy awesomeness that is Jessie.
Thanks to The Living Brick for catching this.
David Pickett (fallentomato) presents his best brickfilms animation showing Lego bricks morphing into different objects. Each change from one object to another consists of many brick-built transition states that are shown for only a fraction of a second, and the results are well worth it. Check out more descriptions and behind-the-scenes info about the video on David’s website.
Iain Heath is a building fool — he’s created a myriad of iconic pieces of some of Hayao Miyazaki’s greatest films. But now he’s gone and built the master himself:
All of these are scheduled to make an appearance at BrickCon, as part of the Big in Japan display!
Flickr user jldgomes built the Window of the Chapter House (Janela do Capítulo) at the Convent of the Order of Christ in Portugal. At first I didn’t know what it was and thought of it as a biomechanical sci-fi sculpture similar to the brick-built Li II. I’m happy to have found out otherwise and learn some history in the process.
