They were one of the first space travelers, so this seems so appropriate. Builder LEGO 7 imagines an alternate reality where the exploration of the expanses of space is done by simians, and frankly they look pretty awesome. Click through for many more pics. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

The current fad, at least here in the US, is fidget toys and fidget spinners. Before the ship has sailed, it appears that LEGO has produced official building instructions for two versions of the toy. The builds are very similar with no exclusive parts but it depends if you want to hold a turntable piece or a Technic pin. Of course, you can still customize the LEGO Fidget Spinner to your liking. **Via Reddit** The post Official LEGO Fidget Spinner Building Instructions appeared first on The Brick Fan.

How awesome would it be to roll down the street in this beauty? This lovely rendition of the Delahaye 136 by Lino M dates back to when design mattered, men wore hats and there was such a thing as "motoring", where just being out and about in the car was entertainment enough. I think in one of these, even today it would be enough, gorgeous. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

I've seen the famed Hearst Tower in real life, and while this brilliant micro scale recreation from builder Dan_Sto isn't as shiny, the real one doesn't have hotdogs integral to it's structure. Think about that the next time you're wandering in Manhattan. Luckily there's usually there's a hotdog cart for the inevitable craving. Thanks for the head's up Vince Original linkOriginal author: Tommy

Built for the Middle-earth LEGO Olympics, Carter Witz brought to us another representation of the wonderful stone walls of Erebor. What I love most about this build are the colors: gold, light gray, and the beautiful sand green. Carter did a nice job including details besides just treasure, such as the stairs, detailed columns, little windows, and hearths. Good luck if you drop your wedding ring in this. . .

Patrick Massey revealed his latest LEGO creation, a truly beautiful mosque from the middle-east. The colors he combined with tan give this building a unique look, especially that olive green brick-built dome that, quite literally, perfectly tops off this MOC. The windows on the sides are also executed well, probably my favorite details of this structure. Make sure to take a closer look! Original linkOriginal author: Nathaniel Stoner

Back in the day we were really into Rock-n-bowl. We would head to the bowling alley after dark to find the lighting all wackadoodle and the music blaring. Doesn't mean we could actually bowl, but we enjoyed ourselves regardless. So the first thing I thought about when I saw this brilliant MOC by Takkata1 was about that (well, actually, it was "so Iron Builder is going again") and now I'm wondering what ever happened to my bowling shoes.

Amazon is currently having very good sales on sets from various LEGO themes including a couple that are at a pretty decent price points for what you get. First is the LEGO City City Square (60097) which is at $135.99. That is 28% off the normal price of $189.99 or $54 off. You do get a lot of cool builds with the set including the tram, LEGO Store as well as the LEGO delivery truck which we rarely see. The next set that I think is a good buy is the LEGO Minecraft The Fortress (21127). It is currently at $67 or 39% off the normal price of $109.99. This brings the price/piece ratio to about $0.07. As with other Minecraft sets, you do get a good amount of parts anyways if you’re just buying it for parts. Finally, we have a couple of LEGO Star Wars sets to help you...

Builder and BrickNerd alumni Melan-E not only crafted a brilliant MOC here, she fostered a mood and longing.
