Should you find yourself in the 1920s and need to get from Munich to Nuremberg in record time, then you’ll want an express ticket to ride behind the Bavarian S3/6. This majestic steam locomotive is meticulously recreated in LEGO by Bricks_n_Trucks. At 10 studs wide, the engine is comparable in scale to the Hogwarts Express Collector’s Edition, but unlike LEGO’s largest steam engine model, this train is fully motorized with a BuWizz engine (see the video below the fold!). The version you see here is an update to the builder’s first iteration, and spotting the differences highlights how much thought went into the smallest details. But what’s a Bavarian steam engine without luxurious cars to pull? Bricks_n_Trucks pairs the engine with passenger wagons from the Rheingold line. First, we have the baggage car in purple. The dining car seats 20 and offers breathtaking views. And the sleeping car offers blinds should...

Like a regular guy who dutifully appears at family reunions only to get shown up by his neurosurgeon cousin, the Acclamator-class assault ship tends to get overshadowed by its more famous descendants. But this humble Acclamator (by FlyInSpace) looks amazing enough in LEGO to have us forgetting about mighty Star Destroyers for a few parsecs. Executed with nary a stud in sight, it uses SNOT bricks to simulate the smooth-yet-textured hull plating to great effect. Here’s an aft view. That dark bluish-gray greebling is just superb. But wait! There’s more! Just when you thought this was simply a display piece incapable of lowering a boarding ramp to load endless battalions on their way to the wider battlefields of the Clone Wars… well, it does have a boarding ramp. The post Begun, the Clone War has—and it’s lookin’ good appeared first on The Brothers Brick. Original linkOriginal author: Ryan Kunz

The LEGO Art Gotham City (76271) is the first Batman: The Animated Series set and it features a skyline of the city. It consists of 4,210 pieces and retails for $299.99. Minifigures Batman has variant with this TAS version which is mostly gray with black dual-molded boots. The paper cape is two-colored, black on the outside and dark blue on the inside. He has a double-sided head with a stern look on one side and an angry look on the other. The cowl is a new piece with an additional piece of plastic on the inside for the white eyes. I’m not sure if there’s something wrong with mine or if like that for every one but the cowl doesn’t fully cover the regular eyes and you can see them underneath. I believe the my copy of the cowl is miscut. His accessory is the Batarang. Harley Quinn has on her...
