Darkmire Mill

Derfel Cadarn’s Darkmire Mill

“The old mill on the edge of Grim Hollow now stands as a refuge for Lord Owain as he awaits the return of his sister who brings a tired Taryn and Sarlina with her. The once fast flowing river that powered the wheel has now become all but a small slow stream.”

Darkmire Mill is probably the best Lego mill I have ever seen, and I have seen many. Every detail in the scene has been perfectly placed. The waterfall, the creek bed, the ramshackle mill, the gnarly trees, even the extravagantly detailed base.

Flickr user Derfel Cadarn, is responsible for Darkmire Mill. Interestingly enough, the description states that this is Chapter 1: Grim Hollow, of the Dark Isle Saga.

Lego Superman: Black Zero Escape Reviewed

Plissken’s Superman: Black Zero Escape

With Lego having licenses to both DC Comics and Marvel Comics it means that as every new film based on their comics is released, so too is a new Lego set.

Man of Steel, the new Superman film directed by Zack Snyder, is getting its first Lego set. Superman: Black Zero Escape is just starting to hit stores now, with the first sets showing up in Germany.

Plissken of Eurobricks has posted the first full review. A huge surprise is General Zod’s full combat armor. I have a feeling that this set will become a must buy for any scifi builder out there.

Star Wars – Tour De Force

Oky’s Star Wars Tour De Force

R2D2’s secret passion is to ride in the Tour De Force. Where once a year the universes most elite bicyclists compete in a 23 day tour of Endor. Watch out R2D2, I hear that Anakin doesn’t play fair.

Oky from Flickr and Eurobricks created this awesome Star Wars Tour De Force concept.

Lego Collectable Minifigures – Series 10 Reviewed @ Eurobricks

Minifigures Series10 Reviewed by WhiteFang at Eurobricks

Who knew that we would already be up to Series 10 of the Lego Collectable Minifigures.

WhiteFang’s review of the newest set on Eurobricks is the definitive review.

It seems like I find myself blindly buying 2-3 of these every release, and while sometimes my luck is lacking, overall each new figure has found a home. Some of these like the Librarian and Roman Commander are very well done. And, who doesn’t image creating a huge Assassin’s Creed style battle with the Revolutionary Soldier.
