With the imminent arrival of LEGO’s Micro Ninjago City gift with purchase (specific details still unknown), it serves as an excellent opportunity to think small! Let’s travel around the world by exploring the mini modulars of Thomas Carlier. Long-time readers will be familiar with his work as we’ve showcased his movie MOCs here before. Since then, Thomas has prepared a colorful and eye-catching book for LEGO fans so that every traveler can build a miniature city or festive street celebrating various cultures. I got the chance to talk to him about the project. Ann: Hi Thomas! It's so nice to talk again and see your new LEGO creations. What inspired you to work on a LEGO project about national beauty and identity? Thomas: Hello everyone! It's so great to connect with you again, and I'm thrilled to share with BrickNerd readers my latest project which was co-created with my brother, the...

Check out this superb LEGO Y-wing built by FlyInSpace. It’s a dead ringer for one of the original studio props! Superb shaping, a ton of greebles, and… The same size as your smartphone?! Yes, this model is actually a lot smaller than it might look at first! Certain pieces do provide clues as to its scale, such as the pair of cabinet doors used as the cockpit roof. Quite how FlyInSpace has managed to pack so much greebley goodness into such a tiny package boggles the mind. A miniature marvel!

This compact asteroid prospecting ship, made of LEGO by Jan Woźnica, would fit in very well in the universe of The Expanse, with structural supports and a engine-as-down design common among the working class “belters” spacecrafts. The overall shape even reminds me a bit of an asteroid, with an almost ovoid shape. The small maneuvering thrusters at the back and sides are a nice detail, and that airlock is perfectly placed for any needed spacewalks.
