After months of chaos, creativity, and absolutely unhinged part usage, Bio-Cup 2025 has reached its dramatic conclusion. With the third and final round complete, Bio-Cup 2025 has come to a close! The final round theme was the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Each of the four remaining builders was assigned one of the horsemen (Famine, Pestilence, War, or Death) and tasked with unleashing their end-times avatar upon the world. Let’s saddle up one last time and take a ride through the results. DEATH: ANUB1S Coming in fourth place, Joey took an interesting approach to Death. Anubis is the Egyptian god of death, protector of graves and guide to the underworld. To make Anubis’s signature jackal head, he used an upside-down Metru foot for a snout and large claw elements nestled within Hero Factory claws for the ears. A sideways Nexo-Knights axe blade gives the eyes a cybernetic edge for a combined...

LEGO’s Fantastic Beasts When you think of the innovations that LEGO Harry Potter has introduced over the years, your mind might jump to the latest wand mould, a piece that has shown up in everything from BrickHeadz Commander Cody (40675) to the modular Corner Garage (10264). Or perhaps you’ll remember the Harry Potter theme as one of the first to introduce flesh skin tones back in 2004. Maybe it’s Harry Potter’s introduction of double-sided heads back in 2001 with Professor Quirrell, a feature that has more or less become standard by now. Over the course of nearly a quarter of a century, the Harry Potter theme has had an undeniable impact on so many different LEGO themes. Today, I...

To coincide with this anniversary, companies like McFarlane Toys and Sideshow Collectibles have released figures and vehicles to commemorate the film. The LEGO Group has also offered a tribute with set 76304 Batman Forever Batmobile, a version of the car that has quickly become one of my favorite on-screen Batmobiles. Today, I’d like to survey the history of the Batman Forever Batmobile, namely its influences from prolific artist H.R. Giger, as well as some small changes I’ve made to the set for my own preferences and to better represent the alien look of what might be the coolest on-screen Batmobile to date. The Biomechanical Batmobile and Its Influences HR Giger, the Swiss artist known best for the Xenomorph from the Alien series, was approached to design...
