Magneto was right – a lot of people have been saying it. Even Professor X saw fit to hand over his X-Men to Magnus in the event of his death (or engagement to a space empress). LEGO builder and Marvel fan flambo14 shows their pro-Magneto stripes, creating a throne from a dismembered Sentinel hand for the the Master of Magnetism.  Flambo14 creates artfully arranged chaos with a mix of scrap metal parts for the raised dais, held in place not by magnetism, but by tension and cleverly concealed LEGO connections. It’s the perfect display piece for Marvel’s most magnetic personality. But good luck fitting that throne into the X-Mansion, bub.

After countless Halloween seasons in the LEGO hobby, I’ve seen pumpkins of every size, shape, and variety. So I certainly take notice when a new bit of “gourd-making tech” hits the scene. Fellow SortLUG member Deborah Higdon has nailed an excellent pumpkin shape in her seasonal mosaic, utilizing curved tiles to create the lobes of the fall fruit. A pair of spooky creatures and some winding vines add to the 3-D elements of the creation. All that’s left is to wish you all a happy Halloween from The Brothers Brick!

The respected Dr. Henry Jekyll and his monstrous alter ego Mr. Edward Hyde roam the streets in this slick and sinister build by Kamil Karpińsky. The titular characters from Robert Louis Stevenson’s classic story turned Halloween icons are a study in contrast: Jekyll is dressed to the nines in a bowtie, waistcoat, top hat, and long coat, with a gentleman’s cane as an affectation. Mr. Hyde, on the other hand, makes good use of Gothmog’s head from 10333 The Lord of the Rings: Barad-dur for a fearsome, demonic visage. His enlarged shoulders strain at the remnants of Jekyll’s coat, while his feet have split his trousers open, exposing his impressive brick-built musculature. The rest of the build is fairly minimalist, but we can see the infamous potion spilling onto the street. The post There’s no Hyde-ing the good and evil here appeared first on The Brothers Brick.
