LEGO and Overwatch video game enthusiast Nick Brick has done something many builders don't -- build something that is completely wearable! Known for making weapon props from pop culture, that is certainly not the same as what Nick has accomplished here. His latest creation is Tracer's Chronal Accelerator, complete with even the character's goggles (with LEGO lenses)! With this creation being complete, Nick now has Tracer's complete arsenal.

I've seen many excellent custom LEGO guitars, and I think this instrument by Vitreolum should certainly be on that list. The model speaks for itself, being well-crafted and using simple parts to great effect. Even the shaping of the guitar was accomplished using common elements, while not being too crazy with the curves. Complete with a guitar stand, the only thing missing from this MOC is a case! Though that may have taken up a lot of parts. . . Original linkOriginal author: Nathaniel Stoner

Though dinosaurs may be extinct, their presence is still used to great advantage. Moko took it upon himself to strike fear into the enemies of these soldiers by building them a raptor mech, one that is clearly ready for action. It may be mechanical, but the essence of the powerful spirits of dinosaurs is represented well here. Two pilots, two legs, one larger turret, and no doubt plenty of other combat abilities.

What an absolutely beautiful creation by none other than Koen. Completely recognizable, excellently detailed, and even fitted with a wonderful scene to surround the highlight of this model. The Disney castle has recently come to life in LEGO form with the recent release of the set's design. However, this is the first microscale recreation that I have personally seen, and easily even one of the best microscale castles! It's hard for me to put into words how much I appreciate this little display. It's truly magical! Make sure to visit Koen's photostream for more photos (and angles) of this magical MOC!

This build appears to me to be demonstrating an effective way to recreate a nicer looking Vulture Droid compared to the original LEGO model. By using similar parts, Inthert made his own model that is a simple cross between old and new. According to the builder, this Vulture has lots of articulation, including each leg and the ability for the head to pop up and rotate for more poses. Inthert also explains that it is very fragile (though it doesn't look it) due to the extra articulation, but I think that's a worthy sacrifice. I'd still have several of these in a Clone Wars diorama. Well done! Original linkOriginal author: Nathaniel Stoner

A few days ago, The LEGO Group announced that it is extending their partnership with the World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF). It is an effort to reduce CO2 emissions with their manufacturing and supply chain operations by 2020. The partnership with WWF is to also promote global action on climate change. LEGO joined with WWF’s Climate Savers Programme in 2014 and has since exceeded all it’s climate targets including: – Balancing 100% of energy use with renewable sources through investing DKK 6 billion in two offshore wind farms– Research and development of more sustainable materials– Improving energy efficiency of producing LEGO bricks by more than 12% The continued partnership with WWF by TLG has committed to the following by 2020: – A further 10% increase in carbon (CO2) efficiency per LEGO brick produced– Continuing to ensure 100% of energy consumption is balanced by production of renewable energy sources– Further engaging...

This has never happened before. I'm at an event, I see an amazing creation, I meet the builder, and during the event itself, the builder publishes a picture and gives me the link. I've walked past this stunning and unique MOC of the mascot for Communidade 0937 several times and it captivates me every time. The entire interior structure of this is lightsaber blades, captured in a frame. For the display it's backlit too, making it even more magical. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

On the sunny central coast of California we enjoy a fairly bug-free life. Sure, there are trillions of them, but they really don't bother us, few bite or sting, and most are so small they go unnoticed. So, I think if I saw one of these in real life I might have a mini heart attack, even if they are completely harmless. A brilliant MOC by Grant Davis. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy
