LEGO CREATOR Mini Cooper - stop animation

January 22, 2018 ohm

And this is the Christmas present my wife got for me. It's awesome. Here's my amateur attempt at filming its build from start to finish.

STAR WARS Advent Day 16: E-3P0

December 16, 2016 ohm

At first I thought it was an unfinished C-3P0. Again, I was wrong. It is a snooty E-3P0. As always, check Jay's Brick Blog for more information and great angles.

STAR WARS Advent Day 15: Tantive IV

December 15, 2016 ohm

LEGO nailed it. There's no way to look at this one and see anything but Leia's famous Blockade Runner. Except that better minds call it the Tantive IV. Right or wrong though my assumptions about its nomenclature may be, this is an awesome piece. Awesome.

STAR WARS Advent Day 14: Obi Wan's Jedi Starfighter

December 14, 2016 ohm

I thought the Venator-class Star Destroyer was an A-Wing. Jay's Brick Blog thought this one was. When are we going to get an A-Wing? If you've played X-Wing, you know: that thing is fast, manoeuvrable, and gosh... I want one.

STAR WARS Advent Day 13: Battle Droid

December 13, 2016 ohm

My wife calls it cute. I consider it one of Lucas's most egregious 'comedic' additions. On the plus side, the one above is suicidal. Jay's Brick Blog is more sanguine about the droids, but thinks they look goofy.

STAR WARS Advent Day 12: Droid Gunship

December 12, 2016 ohm

The droid gunship looks like an antlion. It's a cool piece, but it's ugly as sin, and is more Episode III than I can or want to handle. LEGO could have chosen something more from Hoth or from Jedi - anything but from Revenge of the Sith.

STAR WARS Advent Day 10: Venator-Class Star Destroyer

December 10, 2016 ohm

The Venator-Class Star Destroyer is a cool idea. But up close, it's pretty chintzy and from a distance can look like any of the following: A-Wing, Luke Skywalker's speeder, or the TCS Concordia. Evidently, Jay (of Jay's Brick Blog) really likes it.

STAR WARS Advent Day 9: Hoth Rebel Trooper

December 9, 2016 ohm

Finally, we've got a rebel to man the P-Tower and Defence Turret. And ultimately to fail in the face of imperial onslaught. Jay's Brick Blog have another take on that narrative. Check it out.

STAR WARS Advent Day 8: FD P-Tower

December 8, 2016 ohm

The FD P-Tower started out and ended with a splutter. Barely able to disable large walkers, it got blown up fare more often than it helped the rebellion fend off Imperial forces. As always, Jay's Brick Blog is the place to go to see it in various angles and get more information.

STAR WARS Advent Day 7: Snowman

December 7, 2016 ohm

Today's STAR WARS Lego Advent narrative is about powerlessness. The Bespin Guard is powerless because he sucks. As Jay's Brick Blog points out, his gun is the same piece used in fuel dispensers. He wears an elfin hat. He's in schoolboy blue. And, in this situation, he's facing down the snowman. Ugly as it is, its bazooka actually fires. As always, you'll find out more about the snowman at Jay's Brick Blog.
