I’m not going to make this post about how this isn’t Frankenstein, that’s the doctor, it’s his monster. I’m also not going to insist his name is actually Adam, that’s not technically correct either. In the book he says (yeah, the monster speaks) “I ought to be thy Adam”, but that’s a suggestion the good Doctor ignores. The fact is he has no name, as if being a reanimated collection of corpse parts wasn’t bad enough, the poor guy doesn’t even have a name. What he does have is a loyal fan following, including DOGOD Brick Design, who crafted this wonderful likeness. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

So many metaphors pop in my head. The deadline for BrickJournal looming, my lack of preparation for Nerdvember, the current political climate of the US, or the world for that matter. You can look at this and see all the things that are making it less easy to sleep at night…or you can see it as a cleverly arranged collection of children’s play things. I’ll look at it that way, as an amusing MOC by builder nobu_tary. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

Hurricanes and Cyclones are downright scary.  I lived in Florida when Tropical Storm Fay came through, that was pretty minor with lots of flooding.   I moved north to Philadelphia to escape the tropical storms (and for other reasons), and was in the area when Sandy 2012 and Irene 2011 roared through.  While where I was at saw little damage, a few downed trees, power outages and such both those systems did tremendous damage.  Despite being fairly low on the Category number.  Also the damage wrought by Florence and Michael recently is quite amazing.  Nathan C MOCS really brings the damage home in brick for with this amazing educational MOC depicting what Hurricane Maria did last year to the Island of Puerto Rico.  He experienced the storm first hand.  In this build he has a number of moving elements that illustrates the forces hitting a house in Puerto Rico, the video of...

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.
