Happy Lego Lunar New Year
Happy Lunar New Year. The year of the Horse is ready to begin. Flickr user Ryoutachan22 posted this super cute collection of the 12 Zodiac signs. Believe it or not, these were built by a 7 year old. Which, puts my own building skills to shame. These cute animals are a great example of how much variety you can achieve with only one shape (sphere).
Can you can match up the Rat, Cow, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep, Monkey, Bird, Dog, and Boar with their Lego representation?
Check out your Zodiac over on Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/98718001@N02/9307838262/
Lego Minecraft Co-build Holiday Update!
Lego has been running a Minecraft Co-build project over on Facebook. The goal of the project is to create Lego sets in a Minifigure scale Minecraft theme. The Lego designers for this project are working with the community. Minecraft and Lego fans get to vote on various details, such as the shape and articulation of the Creeper, the possible biome settings, etc. One of the huge announcements based on community feedback is that the final sets will have no stickers. Pictured here are two of the “in progress” biomes. A desert/sand set, and a jungle set. Steve is looking pretty good, and sporting a pixelated sword.
Lego has recently released a video update. Recapping some of the recent design decisions and such. It is worth a look, and reveals just how much thought and time goes into designing an official Lego set.

Skywalker Family Fun / Lego Thanksgiving by DigiNik13
Thanksgiving is one of those times where the whole family comes together. It doesn’t matter if they are on the Light side or the Dark side. Or if they are part of a Rebel Alliance or a great Empire. It’s a time to set aside differences and get together, and eat way too much food. “Skywalker Family Fun – Dad is about to cut the turkey.” Is a great photo vignette from DigiNik13.

This is Halloween… The Nightmare Before Christmas Lego, Jack Skellington
“This is Halloween, this is Halloween
Pumpkins scream in the dead of night”
Jack Skellington, from The Nightmare Before Christmas, is one of the most instantly recognizable characters. His spider like arms and legs, the skeletal frame, and ghostly face make Jack an incredibly difficult character to translate into Lego. Here, Carl Merriam has created his own version of Jack Skellington in Lego. The scale of this figure will dwarf a normal minifigure. Those limbs make it so hard for Jack Skellington to stand up on his own, but the technic bricks seem to holding. Seeing this MOC of Jack Skellington just makes you want to see more Nightmare Before Christmas Lego.
Jack, The Pumpkin King can be seen at Carl Merriam’s Flickr page: http://www.flickr.com/photos/39069854@N07/9360110291/

The (best?) Lego Minifigure Homemade Halloween Costume!
This might be the best Lego Minifigure costume. This homemade Halloween costume is super cool, especially compared to the official Legoland ones. This Minifig costume was shared by YouTube user, citizenera5er, whose son is going to win a whole lot of costume contests.
Happy Halloween!
