While you can’t buy buy buy official Deadpool & Wolverine Brickheadz from the LEGO group, mutant and merc fan Shipmaster steps up with fan variants that are too perfect to be pruned by the TVA. The headlining movie heroes are joined by lesser known fan favorite Gwenpool, who shares Deadpool’s meta superpowers (if not his penchant for blood and vulgarity). Shipmaster does a stellar job matching the characters’ comics appearances without skimping on LEGO skill. Binoculars make for the perfect ammo belt around Wade’s waist, and Wolverine’s “ears” nail the X-Men ’97 costume look, but my favorite technique is the log on Logan’s display stand.

Building scenes from movies and TV series has always been a thing with LEGO builders, but there is one very popular and long-running TV show that has a very special relation with LEGO, and yet it seems like—maybe for that very reason—it has been astonishingly underrepresented in the MOCing community. But here’s hoping that that’s about to change! There’s certainly no reason that Ninjago-inspired scenes shouldn’t be widespread in the building community, considering the huge amount of gorgeous landscapes, vehicles, animals, and scenes available—and tacking on the fact that the show is already half LEGO to begin with! But there are a few significant missing MOCs. I’m here today to share a bit of my inspiration with you and hopefully give you what you need to tackle building some Ninjago scenes —to get you inspired to dive in deeper and find the hundred other scenes that just need to be reproduced...

Today’s BrickNerd article features a guest post about LEGO monorail by Joe Meno of BrickJournal Magazine. Bring Back Monorail! One of the perennial requests that come from long-term LEGO fans is to bring back the monorail. Year in and year out, the request is made at conventions to LEGO representatives, and year in and year out, the company’s reply is the same: “We are not currently planning a monorail.” It has almost become a badge of honor for a visiting designer to get the question—to the point that asking the questions has become more of a cultural phenomenon rather than a sincere request. IMage via Brickset Of course, there are a number of reasons why monorail from the 80s and 90s is likely never going to make a comeback. The molds and the motor aren’t available anymore because they were produced by a contractor that no longer exists. There would be...
