LEGO has just released its first toys in the new “LEGO DC Universe Superheroes” lineup (“LEGO Marvel Superheroes” sets are coming later this year). To celebrate, adult LEGO builder Rod Gillies created this awesome TV displaying a Superman minifigure TV show — and it really plays. Read more »
In honor of Gears of War 3, some dude built a Lancer assault rifle entirely out of LEGO bricks. It’s life-sized, and it works. Mm-hmm, that’s what I said. Read more »
This amazing LEGO build recreates the Last March of the Ents from The Two Towers. What’s amazing about it is that it’s been made to Minifigure scale, which stretches it more than seven feet tall. Read more »
Lord of the Rings fans: prepare to be wowed. Blake Baer and Jack Bittner recreated the ruins of Amon Hen (where the final battle in Fellowship of the Rings takes place) entirely out of LEGO bricks, with a stunning level of detail. Read more »

When Jay Hoff decided to create a LEGO diorama of the Emperor’s arrival (from the beginning of Return of the Jedi), he wasn’t messing around. Hand-built to Minifigure scale, this mind-boggling MOC is comprised of 30,000 LEGO pieces, and utilizes almost 400 Minifigures. Perhaps most impressively, it’s built to Minifigure scale. The brilliance is in the details: the Imperial Shuttle, the gleaming black floor with red carpet path (comprised entirely of bricks turned sideways), the intricate hangar bay walls, the perfectly-placed Stormtroopers, the open bay doors with star field beyond… It makes me want to donate all of my LEGO bricks to a local daycare or something. Because I know Read more »

I’m an avid fan of the BBC revival, and I do remember mention of some mumbo jumbo about the TARDIS‘ interior being in a different dimension. But on the whole, it seems to be one of those “just go with it” concepts that we viewers are better off not pondering too hard.

What if Star Trek‘s Borg had created the LEGO brand? That’s where my mind goes when I look at this striking construction by LEGO builder Lukáš Šógor. (A second pic taken from a different angle is below.) He describes his piece as “Future LEGO,” but to me, it screams Borg. Don’t know about you, but the Borg cliffhanger episode where Captain Picard was assimilated is one of those geek moments that’s etched in my mind forever. I still remember where I was when that cliffhanger, “The Best of Both Worlds,” first aired. I can still hear the dramatic rise in the episode’s music when Commander Riker gave the shocking order to destroy Picard Read more »
