The FriendsLoader, A Lego Friends Power Loader

Simon Liu's Lego Friends Power Loader

The Lego Friends are a lot tougher then they appear. Stephanie here looks like she is ready to load up some heavy cargo, or to kick some alien butt. There have been some great Minifigure scale Power Loaders, but this is one of the best Friends scale ones. It has even been dressed up with some pink; perfect for fitting in with all the other sets. This exoskeleton has some great details, especially the use of the Lego 1×1 round bricks. This Lego Friends Power Loader uses some common pieces, so it should be easy to build at home.

Spend the Year of the Sheep with a Lego Shaun the Sheep

ArzLan's Lego Shaun The Sheep

Spend the year of the Sheep with everybody’s favorite Shaun the Sheep. Shaun stars in his own animated TV Show, which in turn is a spin off of  Wallace and Gromit: A Close Shave. This cute Lego vignette shows the titular sheep hanging out with a much more angry looking sheep. Maybe it needs to be shorn? Which, in Lego would mean removing a couple of plates? No matter, these two sheep are excellent builds.

“Shaun the Sheep in the year of Sheep” is the creation of ArzLan and can be found on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/32161137@N08/16034677968/

There’s Always Money in the Lego Banana Stand

Bruce Lowell's Arrested Development, Lego Banana Stand

There are many iconic locations from the TV show Arrested Development, but none are as famous as the Bluth’s Original Frozen Banana Stand. This great little MOC features some extremely nice custom stickers. The SNOT building used to get the shape of the Banana Stand is amazingly complicated. And, best of all there looks to be enough room for a George Michael or Maeby Fünke. The tight space will certainly create some awkward situations. This thing is so accurate that I have a feeling there might even be Lego money lining the walls of the Banana Stand.

Lego Military Troopers: X78, X78/B, and X79

Devid VII's Lego Military Troopers X78

This Military Crew consists of the X78, the X78/B and the X79. These guys are sporting some of the best power armor out there. The X78 is a larger hard suit, perfect for tanking, that accommodates a Minifigure sitting down. Outfitted with a large rifle this guy is ready to fight. The X79 is the smaller armor, which makes it much more nimble. This power armor comes with rocket launchers and an automatic weapon. Finally the X78/B is an alternate version of the X78. This time accommodating a standing position, and a little bit more armor. These three Military Troopers are the work of Devid VII. Who shows off some excellent Minifigure scale building techniques. Check out how the standard legs are removed and the power armor is incorporated into the torso. Allowing a more realistic appearance (knees!)

411C: A Beautiful Lego Studio in Lego

Dave Kaleta's 411C Lego Studio

Lego builder Dave Kaleta has created an extremely realistic MOC based on his Lego studio. The project is titled “411C” and is named after the address of the studio space. This is a great workspace, featuring two huge desks, plenty of organized storage, unorganized storage, and even Lego mosaics hanging on the wall. This scene is made all the better by natural lighting and a huge window.

Dave Kaleta's 411C Lego Studio Storage

It is the details that make 411C so lifelike. Notice the glass jars on top of the shelving. The multicolored and differently shaped storage containers in the loft space. The well made mini mosaics. The feet holding up the main desk are especially well done, as is the slightly askew handles on the drawers. The desk chair is another great build, with a great use of a Lego propeller for the casters.

Dave Kaleta's 411C Lego Studio Desk

This Lego studio is part of a series of autobiographical builds. It is extremely detailed, and is a great way to show off a unique artistic studio space. Check out all the details over on Flickr: https://www.flickr.com/photos/davekaleta/15276376986/

And, to see just how close this is to the actual studio. Check out the short video below:

These Bad Binary Bitches Will Reprogram You

Andrew Lee's Lego Bad Binary Bitches

Lego and Robots are a very popular genre of Lego MOCs. This robot duo are known as the Bad Binary Bitches (that is some good alliteration). Check out their use of various clips and hinges. They are also a great place to show off new and cutting edge Lego building techniques.  Especially the use of the Lego Minifigure back connector used in the legs. The use of stickers (custom!) help lend these robot ladies some personality. They may be tough, but they certainly look delicate. They are standing on Lego wrenches after all.

Lego Bender On A Bender

Sean and Steph Mayo's Lego Futurama, A Saturday Bender

Futurama is one of the best TV shows ever made, and it’s no wonder that some truly epic MOCs have been created. But none are as cute as this Lego Bender. This little robot is featured in a creation titled “A Saturday Bender.” This vignette features the little robot doing what he does best. Getting completely plastered while watching Saturday morning cartoons. The use of the Lego flexible tubes and some creative part use makes this the cutest Bender Bending Rodríguez ever. Also check out that retro futuristic television.

A Saturday Bender is the creation of Sean and Steph Mayo, and you can view it here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/legocy/16188302121/

The Anatomy of a Tiny Lego Man

Freeny's Tiny Lego Man Anatomy Sculpt

This Tiny Lego Man Anatomy Study measures just 2.75 inches tall. The whole thing is even hand painted, including all the of the smallest details. Not only is there one finished Minifigure sculpt, but if you look into the background you can see another one being created. These little Lego Men are amazingly cool.
