Iron-Man Mark 3
by miniBIGS

author's comments:
We made this lineup of Iron-Men with art provided by Myron McMillin of Seattle.
We were inspired by the poll on our site and Iron-man had a huge response, so here you go.
There will be a few available on eBay and on our webstore. For info check out :

8-bit Basement
by Profound Whatever

author's comments:
It began as a graffiti-style project illustrating my first name (there is still a vague A-L-E-X pattern to it), and turned into a smorgasbord of 80s references.

The end result is so-so, but I was pleased at the method I figured out to turn two half-barrels into one whole barrel. I call patent dibs.

The house might not be in existence (anymore), but the legacy still lives on

The "Building" part:


Top Gear presenter, James May, built a new house in Surrey made entirely out of
Lego bricks. This two-story Lego palace, which resides in the middle of a vineyard,
has a working bathroom, and is covered inside and out with over 816 million Legos.



(Hm. So is it just over 3 million bricks, or does it actually near the astronomical figure
of near a billion LEGO bricks, in order to construct a house made solely of the stuff?)

The new, 1,205-piece Lego Space Shuttle set combines to form a 17.5-inches-tall
spacecraft, complete with retractable landing gear, detachable fuel tank, and
booster rockets. Included in the set are three minifigs (male and female astronauts
and a service crew member), a ground maintenance vehicle, and a launch pad for takeoffs.


The set will cost $100, and is expected to be released in June.

Saw a life-size Lego Woody the other day in Copenhagen, and I just had to pose with him.


Then there was the Lego Mars Rover at the Kennedy Space Center.

It's too bad you couldn't find a gallon hat to pose with in that first photo, GG, as I was lost for a second there as to what you were trying to convey (Salsa?) ; I did find myself chuckling, though, as I did realize a moment later you were mimicking Woody.

[article]

Variety is currently reporting that writers Dan and Kevin Hageman are crafting
a family-oriented LEGO movie that will combine animation with live action in
“an action adventure set in a LEGO world.” Dan Lin, who is currently producing
Sherlock Holmes and Robert Rodriguez’s new family film Shorts will produce the film under Lin Pictures.


...

With a built-in audience derived from family-friendly film seekers and a seemingly
ubiquitous presence of LEGO products in every child’s toy chest, Warner Bros.
is sure to have at least a modest success on their hands.

An interesting find I'd like to share: Can you name the Movie Characters by Lego? - sporcle [game]

I believe I got 19/24 of them right, even some of the way lesser-knowns (I took this little quiz about two weeks ago).

Lego Soap @ Geeky Clean


personal commentary:
while I probably would have less trouble having my bar of soap slipping/sliding around when wet with the above, I think using a washcloth/loofah is the exclusive method I'd employ if I were to use the above.
