With so many LEGO mechs on Flickr, it's hard to stand out, but there is a way. First you need excellent construction, that's obvious. But then you need a killer color combination, and a background that sets it off. Lastly is posing and photography, you took all that time to build an awesome mech, then you snap a picture in front of a wrinkled bedsheet with a five year old cell phone? Do you creation justice, like this beautiful mech from Moko, which hits all the points from above and then some. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

Solo is less than a week away, and I'm happy to say I'm still pretty much spoiler free (don't do anything to change that). This is from the trailer, an ominous and exceptionally cool train that runs over and under the track. It looks like it's going to be an exciting scene, and has inspired M. Mipi to build this fantastic little diorama. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

I mostly took a day off yesterday (I say mostly because I rarely take a whole day off) and just hung out with Mrs BrickNerd. We even took a little time to build the Belle and Beast Brickheadz. And then today I see that Swan Dutchman has built two characters from one of Mrs BrickNerd's all time favorite movies, The Little Mermaid, so I just had to share. Here is Ariel and Ursula, done to perfection. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

The LEGO Ideas Tron Light Cycle set is pretty nifty (even if the movie was a let down). But once you've built it the action is sorta over right? I mean they just sit there stuck to their base. Not nearly as exciting as the movie right? Well consummate tinkerer and all around mechanical wizard JK Brickworks wasn't satisfied with that, so he designed a dynamic display for his cycles, and he's shared how on his website.

I will admit that the first thing that caught my eye about these wonderful little Shibas by builder ZiO Chao was the fact that they have the same color combinations of my corgis Teemo and Lulu. Then when I viewed his photostream I was delighted to see a pair of corgis that could be them! As a side note I tried to show Teemo and Lulu, but they're only interested in getting their morning walk, perhaps when we get back... Original linkOriginal author: Tommy
