I’d say this was quarantine related, but probably not since quarantine wasn’t as in effect a month or so ago. I have to say it’s pretty fun though. Some unnecessary jump cuts in the video, but overall it’s neat. Kind of makes me want to try it too. Also seems like all the LEGOs are … Continued
Have you ever wanted a car? What about a LEGO car? How about a Ford Mustang? Well you’re in luck because a few years ago LEGOLand Florida built a full sized 1964 Ford Mustang, completely out of LEGO Bricks. 194,900 of them to be exact.

What a rush of excitement it was. I won’t give many spoilers, except to say that there were plenty of upsets and new … Continued
This is a pretty neat diorama of a mix of LEGO scenes from the sequel trilogy. What you can’t see from the photo is the moving ships that go around the perimeter. Reddit video doesn’t let me embed it for some reason, so you’ll have to venture over there. {reddit}
An intrepid designer built Route 1 from the original Pokemon games (possibly from Gold/Silver, not Red/Blue). I like the various touches of trainers, and “wild” Pokemon that appear throughout the level. Pokemon was something of a revolution back in the day. I remember my first time I beat the Elite Four. I was so nervous … Continued
Imgur user xadrian built his own LEGO Food Truck. I gotta say, the thing looks ace. There’s plenty of attention to detail on the inside. And actual flames on the side, not a baby decal. Actual. Flames. Doesn’t this guy look dangerous?
I’m sure you’ve seen versions of this before, but never matter, I’m posting the above video because I thought it was fun to watch, and it’s short, and you can spare the time. Trust me.
