Halloween is in just two days, and things are getting awful scary. But thanks to the mechanical genius of JK Brickworks they’re also getting awful convenient. To celebrate everyone’s favorite sugar-fueled holiday Jason has designed a chocolate dispensing vending machine. Check out the video to see it in action and to go behind the scenes to see how it works! Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

About a year in the making, this incredible rendition of the “pork burger” by Rogue Bantha is at 1/72 scale, and from what I can see looks pretty darn accurate. Yes, there’s two official sets at about this scale (well, quite a bit bigger), and you may have been temporarily confused when you saw this, but this one is hand crafted by a fan, and I’m a fan of that fan.

It’s Sunday, which is classically a day of rest, so as normal I’ll be working (I pretty much work seven days a week, but it’s ok, I choose to). But I do intend to set aside a little time today to continue my exploration of Koholint Island in The Legend of Zelda: Link’s Awaking on my Nintendo Switch. Partially because I occasionally have to remind myself to take some down time, and partly because I saw this outrageously cool micro scale build from BrickinNick. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

Behold L.S.C., The LEGO Steam Company by builders Brick Rebel and Monstrophonic. This incredible collaboration was built for Lego World Utrecht 2019 and I desperately wish I could have been there to see this wondrous creation in person. There’s so much detail and steamy goodness wherever you look, and interactive powered features. A video is forthcoming and I can’t wait to see it. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

We’ve discussed my exceeding oldnessness on this blog a few times. For instance, I remember when there there as only three channels, and the remote control looked a lot like me, because it was me. I remember lawn darts, pong and Star Wars action figures being “new”. And I remember a time before all these magnetic mediums by builder Cha Mi, and their inevitable demise.
