Nick Wilde Created Out Of Lego

Nick Wilde Created Out Of Lego

This Lego bust of Nick Wilde is the creation of Vlad Lisin. Built as an entry into the Bio-Cup 2020, which challenged the designer to build something Canine themed. In Zootopia Nick is an extremely confidant con-artist who finds himself helping Judy Hopps. This Lego creation has the sly and confidant look down. An interesting detail is how the eyelids are actually Minifigure capes; it is unique and it works wells. A few of the other intersting parts in the creation include a handful of Bionicle parts scattered around, Lego Minifigure arms used in the muzzle / nose and cheeks, and the orange hoses used to give the ears some detail. Even with all the weird pieces this fox is looking good.

Roller Skate With Veron Zapper, A Lego Figure

Roller Skate With Veron Zapper, A Lego Figure

This is Veron Zapper, a Lego figure built by Eero Okkonen. Veron is an “urban speeder contest enthustiast” (a reference to a previous Lego build) who loves to roller skate. The idea is that the roller skate is attached to the boots. Above the wheels are some shocks before it gets to the foot part. The boombox is a great accessory that brings personality, and a lot of posing options to the figure. The box uses a Lego chain, and some Lego Dimensions bases. The whole figure is a great example of combining Lego system, with Bionicle, and other miscellaneous parts. A great feature about Veron Zapper is just how many poses you can put the figure in. There is a full range of motion in all the expected places. A few that are not as obvious is that the fingers all move individually, and the wrists can swivel. The best detail are the pair of Ninja Turtle shells being used for elbow pads!

A Pair Of Robots — A Lego MOC

A Pair Of Robots — A Lego MOC

This cute pair of robots is a Lego MOC created by R 194. The two of them look very similar but they are actually very different. Almost like a deluxe model and a junior model. The heads are based on a 2×3 shape. The difference in their eye design is interesting. Both work well. The bigger model has one major upgraded feature compared to its smaller version. It has ears. The big robot also has improved arms with an elbow joint, and improved legs with knees. Another interesting detail that works well is that the big robot has a slightly different design for both its feet. It helps give is a bit more personality.

Haku, Chihiro, And No-face — Spirited Away Lego Figures

Haku, Chihiro, and No-face — Spirited Away Lego Figures

This collection of Spirited Away Lego figures is created by Dylan Lane. Featuring the main characters; there is Haku, Chihiro, and No-face. All three of them are in scale to each other, and are easily recognizable. A hard achievement seeing that there is such little room for detail. This version of Haku is his human form, before he knows his real name. Chihiro is in her normal cloths. While No-face is in his much more friendly timid form. A few of the details that work well include the 2×2 black dish for Haku’s hair, the 1×2 grill brick for Chihiro’s hair, and the white rounds pieces on the 2×1 slope used for socks! If No-face offers you any gold do not take it.

Just How Do Those Westworld Robots Work?

Just How Do Those Westworld Robots Work? Printing.

Westworld is an interesting show. The robots that exist in the park are incredibly lifelike. So human that even the people behind the scenes have a hard time identifying robot from human. The show goes into great detail on how these mechanical people are created. Robot arms work endlessly to print muscle and tissue, bit by bit. The milky white bodies make for a very artistic image. The problem is that the show also goes to great lengths to not show how these Westworld Robots work. How do their white bodies end up looking like flesh? What is their power source? This Lego MOC is a recreation of the iconic scene in the opening credits. “Westworld Host Printing” is created by Mitch Phillips. The figure in the circle is an especially impressive build. Almost as complicated as printing a real robot. You can see a lot of Lego pieces, such as horns, clips, robot harms, teeth and bones. Maybe it is a tiny Power Functions motor operating these bots?

A Lego Link BrickHeadz

A Lego Link BrickHeadz, Side View

This Lego Link BrickHeadz style figure is created by Andrés Bevilacqua. The blocky figure works well with Link, probably because his original design came from 8-bit graphics in The Legend of Zelda. With a sword and shield he looks ready to go on an epic quest. The hat is a great shape and instantly recognizable, it also looks like it fits on his head. A lot of times hats end up looking like they are just set on top. The studs being exposed for the hair is a great detail. Giving Link that trademark voluminous hair. There are even the pointy elf ears sticking out from the hair. Seeing this BrickHeadz figure makes me want to see all the other classic Nintendo characters in Lego. Imagine a Lego BrickHeadz Donkey Kong, Mario, Luigi, Samus, and Kirby!

Where’s the Rum? — A Lego Jack Sparrow

Where’s the Rum? — A Lego Jack Sparrow

Keep your booze locked up, this brick built Jack Sparrow is looking for some rum. This Lego bust of Captain Jack is created by Bryce Dempsey. Built as an entry into an Iron Builder challenge, specifically to use the Minifigure shooters in new and unique ways. You can see a lot of them being used to create the hair, mustache, and goatee. A great detail is the single white shooter. Who knew that these even came in other colors. For a brick built figure this is a difficult scale to work in. Just big enough to get some extra details, but not small enough to rely on super simplified caricature. The nose and eyes are extremely well done in this scale, combined they form an instantly recognizable Jack.

The Silver Nail, A Lego Android

The Silver Nail, A Lego Android

This is the deadly Lego android named Silver Nail, created by Moko. The first striking thing about his figure is the use of a lot of silver plated Lego pieces. A very rare color in the Lego world. You can find a lot of surprising parts in this android. There are a few golden rings used in the fingers, and elbow. Count Dooku’s light saber hilt helps make up the fingers, as do some silver knifes. The silver is contrasted with a black and white design, and vibrant purple hair. An inside out Lego tire is used to make a skirt, which does not prevent the figure from taking any pose that it wants. There is a lot of articulation built into this mech. Double jointed knees, ankles, toes, hips, shoulders, elbows, hands, fingers, head, and even each strand of hair.

Relaxing In A Bath — A Lego MOC

Relaxing In A Bath — A Lego MOC

After a hard day at work nothing is more relaxing than a bath. This Lego MOC, called “The Bath” is created by Krzysztof J. This build has a few main parts to the scene. The woman is an impressive build. It is not a simple pose, with one leg up out of the water. The bathtub is another great model. The clawfoot tub has gold accents, the faucet is surprisingly detailed. With a gold Lego plate with a reverse 2×2 white round plate as the shower head. The bathtub is a bit more complicated than at first glance. The exterior is grey, with an interior in white, and a layer of transparent Lego bricks for the water. Thats a lot of layers. The whole scene is built on a base depicting a bathroom tile floor. The repetitive tile design looks great, and you can even see a cut out for the pluming. A great detail. A bath mat, and a pair of high heels finish the scene. Just remember your Lego needs a warm bath too.

Tahu Uniter, A Bionicle Build

Tahu Uniter, A Lego Bionicle Build

Lego Bionicle is a completely separate theme from Lego, with its own lore and specialized pieces. These type of models live on today in the recent Star Wars figures theme. This Lego MOC called “Tahu Uniter,” and created by Patrick Biggs is a reimagining of two popular Bionicle characters. Combining the 2016 versions of Tahu and Ikir, the two fire characters who worked together. This version is much more detailed than the official one. This build has a very striking red, gold, and blue color theme. The wings in particular look amazing. The use of 2×2 flat round gold plates overlapping created a great effect. Looking like scales and like armor at the same time. The circles are carried over onto the chest armor which creates a nice flow to the design.
