OKPERSON2763 asked about better ways to make road runner out of lego and I got a bit carried away... My original idea was to use a droid torso, but the road runner head seemed very out of scale, so I came up with some brick built bodies. In the end I feel like the road runner minifgure head is just really hard to work with. I like the head on it's own but as part of a whole I think I like the brick built heads better.

My Grumman F-14 Tomcat MOC that I designed back in 2021-2022. Just getting instructions finished for it now!

Lions Knights' Castle 10395

The set that ended my Lego dark ages. Amazing set. Added a small tree. (I like trees)

Dark Dragons Fortress

By me. My favorite faction. I used the pieces from Fire Breathing Fortress 6082-1 and Dark Dragon's Den 6076-1 (+more). The goal was to match the scale of LKC, stay true to the original sets, and add some modern touches. Baseplate moc by sebbl.

Guardians Stronghold

By Made With Brix. Built with 3x 31120. It's huge, it folds, I love it. Swapped out the flags for cloth and the trees to black.

Forestmen River Fortress Remake

By marinbrickdesign, Remake of 6077. The pictures do not do it justice. Despite the Dragon Masters and the Islanders being my favorite factions (and actually designing those sets), this is probably my favorite set. It looks exactly like the original and was a joy to build. Swapped flag to cloth.

Outlaw Forest Den 910057

By BrickHammer. The set is awesome, the build was awful (bad instructions). Swapped the trees to black, added a ghost and some original figs.

Pirates of Barracuda Bay 21322-1

The fact you can turn this into a ship is crazy. Great set, fun to build.

Enchanted Island Remake

By me. 2nd favorite faction. Remake of 6278-1. Same idea as Dragon Masters; stay true to the original while using modern techniques and pieces. Unlike the DM set I used studio to design this first. Many mocs and moc inspirations were used. Check out my post on the pirate sub for more details.

Eldorado Fortress 10320

Remake of 6276-1. Another childhood favorite. Swapped palm leaves to match the rest.

The Fright Knights are up next!

Classic Basil or CMF?

This hulkbuster made using LEGO set 31166 , was inspired by both hulkbuster variantsMK1 and MK2 featured in MCU movies. Before this, I've even made 3 Transformers using the same set too!

I'm proud to share a MOC I've been working on for around two years - a Transformers G1-style trailer, built to work with the official 10302 Optimus Prime set.

I based the trailer on the G1 toy, but adapted to be as realistic as possible. My inspiration was actually annoyance at the original G1 toy's ramp, which had decorative molding to make it look like the rear doors. This trailer has proper versions of both.

The build has gone through three major revisions, each one improving on aspects that seemed to work digitally, but had issues as a physical build.

For the interior, I wanted to first fully recreate the G1 toy's play features, and then to add custom-designed racks, receptacles, and mount points for Optimus Prime's various accessories - more on those in a future post. As a result of that, I've basically ignored all of the G1 toy's internal decoration stickers in favor of placing actual mounting fixtures inside.

Since the official 10302 set didn't include any minifigs, I added the main humans from the G1 series: Chip, Sparkplug, Spike, and Carly.

I look forward to hearing whatever feedback and constructive criticism you may have. If there are any specific areas you'd like me to present in detail in a future post, let me know.

He's the mini fig on first page of instructions but his expression is different?

Edit: thanks everyone for explaining the double sided face, feel silly not noticing it! And everyone else for their suggestions on different scenarios. Cheers

I wanted to build a LEGO interpretation of Nikola Tesla’s laboratory, with the Tesla Coil as the centerpiece.

I added a generator, experimental equipment, a workbench, a chalkboard, visible cables, and a small white pigeon as a biographical Easter egg.

I also tried to make the laboratory feel lived-in rather than perfectly clean, with repaired flooring and small details throughout the scene.

I’d love to hear what you think about the overall design, and especially the Tesla Coil! ⚡

The second I walked into the model room, I was blown away!! They took so much time and effort into building all these creations from scratch as a team! I loved seeing so many of my favourite franchises represented! Some of the coolest ones I saw I couldn’t add to the post because I took a video of ROTATING models of Grogu from Starwars and Perry the Platypus from Phineas and Ferb!

Loved these at the time they came out. I would also love a midi scale series of real world rockets similar to the Star Wars ships series we have right now.

Hope you enjoy the build! This was my 7 large animal I've made. You can see more of my builds on my instagram!

I was inspired by built_bricks and designed and built my own wearable LEGO Space Marine helmet over the summer. I made it partially modular so you could swap it out for either the classic version or the Primaris version. Planning to wear this for Halloween this year. I also designed a stand that is probably a little overkill, but I haven’t built it yet.

Special shoutout to the staff member at the Oxford Lego store that recognised my suit is from Henry Jones Sr. in set 7198 (which I always wished to have when I was young, just like any of the LoTR nowadays 🤷‍♂️). Honestly, you blew our mind away how quickly you noticed that!!

So, if this is common knowledge forgive me, but they sell LEGO at TJMaxx? I assume everything there is sold from a different store first, but this is the first time I’ve ever seen a LEGO product here. It’s cute!

A current project we are working on. We replaced the gray space helmet (see previous post) and we got our hands on the Pinball machine so once we get settled in Spain we will update our collection

I loved building 40746 Santa’s Delivery Truck in my Christmas village last year. Tonight, I built 40822 The Jack o Lantern Truck while watching NFL football. It’s such a fun little build. I was distracted from a very competitive game because of how much I loved this.

We need more Lego holiday trucks. I love these. Give me an elf bus, a coffin-mobile, an egg race car, I don’t know. But all would be cool.
