Is it weird that when I see a really cool ship like this my first thought is to imagine it mounted to a pylon in front of a green screen with a big motion control rig swooping a camera past it, then the shot that would result from that motion control pass? This is the Daedalus, by builder Rat Dude, and I want to see it in a movie! The detailing is exquisite, with a perfect blend of large and small detail to convey the scale, and just enough studs to let you know it’s LEGO. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

Tonight! Tommy works on his Nerdly. ElBarto watches it snow. And Firas Abu-Jaber builds a car. Yes, ladies and gentlemen, he’s back with a LEGO version of this deadly rear-engined super-car! So, you ask, what’s the deal with all those numbers and letters? And more letters? Some say each extra letter adds about twenty grand to the price tag. But that would be over simplifying the subtle yet dramatic differences within the 911 family. Therefore, creating a LEGO version that’s immediately recognizable- How hard can it be? I think we all know the answer to that… Nicely done, Firas! Original linkOriginal author: El Barto

Just yesterday I was wondering when and if we’d see this ship from builder vitreolum, ask and ye shall receive eh? This is the ship that rescued me from my reluctant dim age, and it is forever dear to my heart. It was also pivotal to the purchase of my house, as it was part of the collection I sold when we purchased it. No, I have no regrets, I love this house and I’m grateful for it.

…You never know what you’re gonna get. Builder SuckMyBrick is back with a tribute to a Tom Hanks and Robert Zemeckis classic, the quirky but brilliant Forrest Gump. Fun fact, before switching to the wine industry Mrs BrickNerd worked for See’s Candies for years. She could identify every single piece by appearance alone. So much for that little colloquialism.

I will always have a soft spot for classic pirates. When I was old enough to finally have some “disposable” income they were new on the market, and I bought a lot of them, emerging from my reluctant dim age. Builder vitreolum is clearly also a fan, this wonderful micro version of 6248 is actually part of a growing series. When will we see my personal favorite, a Black Seas Barracuda?

Layered costumes are difficult in real life, not to mention in LEGO elements, but builder Pate-keetongu pulls it off with his usual flair with this lovely creation from his imagination. Grata is a senior exchange student of Kontrabontembi monastery for wizard monks according to Eero’s webpage, and if she’s this impressive as a student, imagine when she’s a full fledged practicer of magic.

There are, however, some more or less popular characters that are not included like my main, Lucio. Hopefully there’s another wave so we can at least get the full roster lineup.
