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.

Deadpool’s Day Off.

This Lego Owl Will Drop Some Wisdom.

What kind of questions could you ask a Lego Owl? “Which is better Classic Space or Star Wars?” “Will the Lego Movie be good?” “What minifies will Series 15 have?” “Will there be an official Lego Silmarillion theme?” “Where are all the Lego Pirates?” “Why is Ninjago so crazy?” The list could go on and on… whether of not a Lego Owl could actually answer such questions.

This Owl is amazingly lifelike. With a great focused stare, perfect coloring, and deadly talons. Owl was created by Mihai Marius Mihu.

Misspelled Lego Back to the Future Flux Capacitor Replacement

The recent Back to the Future Lego set had an embarrassing spelling error in its first few production runs. The Flux Capacitor reads “SHEILD EYES FROM LIGHT.” Lego knew early on about this misspelling but didn’t have an official solution to the problem. They did state that future production runs would be corrected, and that other solutions were being looked into. As of a few days ago, Lego has officially announced a replacement program. You can now get a corrected “SHIELD EYES FROM LIGHT” replacement brick by contacting Lego customer service. This is a great response from Lego!

The good news for all the early buyers, is that they will have both versions of the Flux Capacitor.

The Adventure Time Project, A Lego land of Ooo at Lego CUUSOO

Lego and Adventure Time are an almost perfect match. Fans of both have been hoping for Lego to pick up an official license. Jazlecraz has created an incredibly detailed Lego CUUSOO project based on Adventure Time. This is the best way to get Lego to notice the demand for Adventure Time. There are currently over 9,000 supporters for this project, and when it hits 10,000 Lego has to officially review the proposal and make a decision. Lego has officially commented on the Adventure Time Project, and noted that no new molds would be created for a CUUSOO project. Meaning that the minifigures have been set aside in favor for a micro scale theme. Everybody would still love to see Finn, Jake, BMO, Marceline, Princess Bubblegum, Ice King, and Lemongrab get their own microfigures.

The Adventure Time Project is focused on created one amazing micro scale Tree Fort. Consisting of about 400 Lego pieces in its current incarnation. This means that it would fit in with the current $34.99 price point that Lego has favored for their CUUSOO theme. There are also six micro scale Lego sets that have been added as a bonus. Showing what could be done if this becomes a full theme. One thing is certain, if these were real there would be a whole lot of Finn and Jake figures.

The Micro Ice Castle features Finn, Jake, the Ice King, Penguins, and the Wildberry Princess.
Marceline’s House would feature Finn, Jake, Marceline, Ice King, and Princess Bubblegum.

Micro Lumpy Space would feature Finn, Jake, Princess Bubblegum, the Lumpy Space Princess and the Lumpy Space King.
Castle Lemongrab would feature Finn, Jake, Princess Bubblegum, Lemongrab, and Lemongrab 2.

The Micro Candy Castle would beature Finn, Jake, Princess Bubblegum, Lady Rainicorn, and two other figures (I don’t know their names!).
And finally, the Micro Tree Fort would feature Finn, Jake, BMO, Princess Bubblegum, Marceline, and the Ice King.

The Simpsons Family Lego

Lego is getting ready to release an official Simpsons theme next year. There are rumors that the the Collectible Minifigures Series 13 will be entirely Simpsons Minifigs. If you can’t wait until 2014 for these releases then your own imagination can get a jump start on the Simpsons fandom. For instance, Madoruk created The Simpsons Family in the Lego miniland scale. The whole family is pretty well represented. And, the use of mosaic building techniques is a perfect match to the animated style.

The Simpsons Family is the creation of Madoruk, check it out over at Flickr: http://www.flickr.com/photos/madoruk/10477199203/

“Brick Patrol I” by Peter Fendrik, Lego Star Wars 3D Art

There are a couple of (internet) famous art pieces done involving Lego. One of those is “Brick Patrol I” by Peter Fendrik. This 3D Lego Star Wars render is almost perfect. The composition works well, the depth of field is great, and the color are vibrant. This is how everyone imagines their Lego bricks while building. What really makes this are the two Lego built planets in the background. These Lego Stormtroopers make a perfect desktop background.
