BrickLink Announces MOC Shop and Teaser Page

March 24, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

Earlier this month, BrickLink officially announced that they will be launching the BrickLink MOC Shop in May. It is a place where members can create, share, buy, and sell their MOCs to other members in the community. Builders can upload an image or the LDD file of their MOC for members in the community to like and comment on it and if it gets enough recognition, it becomes a candidate for it to be sold. The design of the MOC will be evaluated for parts availability by sellers. If it is approved, the MOC will be available for purchase as a BrickLink Original. You can read more about the process on the post here. BrickLink has released a teaser page for the MOC Shop (above image). What do you think of this new service and will any of you be selling your MOCs?

March LEGO User Group Showcase at Fashion Valley Store

March 21, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Spring is here and we’ve have a cool looking new model at the Fashion Valley LEGO Store showcase. This model was created by members of L Gauge which is a group of members in the LEGO Community here in the San Diego area who are working together to create a museum for visitors to see the history of LEGO.

This month’s model at the store is a scene showing minifigures having a fun time at the beach just like what we have here in sunny San Diego. Check out the images below.

Death of the Faerie Forest by Siercon and Coral

March 21, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

There always comes a time when a LEGO builder has to take down a build that they’ve cherished for a long time. This is what Sean and Steph Mayo, aka Siercon and Coral, has done with their Faerie Forest. Since they are moving soon, it had to be dismantled but it’s also a bittersweet moment. Hopefully we’ll get to see another forest build from them in the future. Check out the death of the Faerie Forest below. Be prepared to shed a tear.

March 17, 2014 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 2 Comments

With the news that a LEGO version of the Ghostbusters Ecto-1 (21108) becoming an official set, many people have took it upon themselves to build their own Firehouse Headquarters to have it ready for when the vehicle is available this summer. Sergio Herencias is one of these people. From inspiration from Dr. Dave Watford and Brent Waller, he has created his version the Firehouse which is a hybrid of both Ghostbusters movies. From the descriptions, the building is 38cm x 33.6cm x 17.5cm and consists of 3467 pieces. The total time it took for him to build was around 20 hours. The floors are removable and it also includes lights from LifeLites. Sergio also has plans to include lights in the Ecto-1 as well. Check out the timelapse video of him building his Ghostbusters Firehouse Headquarters MOC below.

The LEGO Movie Master Builder’s Submarine MOC by Imagine Rigney

"We Can Make a Bat-submarine… (Patent Pending)": LEGO Movie Submarine Side View

Last month, we reported on an image that surfaced of the Master Builder’s Submarine that was created by various characters in The LEGO Movie. The digital design was created by Grant Freckelton and his team using LEGO Digital Designer. In the movie, six characters worked together to create it. In the real world, it took one person to make it and he goes by the name of Imagine Rigney on Flickr. He has recreated the submarine with great accuracy. The sub is only a part of his bigger models as you can see from the images below. The sub is a cutaway design in which the characters witness the fall of Unikitty’s Cloud Cuckoo Land. He notes that while building the model, he found out that many of the elements used in the digital image didn’t exist in some of the colors or no longer exists. A very awesome MOC by Imagine Rigney and truly a representation of The LEGO Movie’s message.

To get you more into the mood for The LEGO Movie CK Tsang, aka chiukeung, has recreated the logo from the movie. This build is a fantastic recreation of the official one although it uses different pieces than the original one. This conveys the message that the movie as well as chiukeung bring which is to use your imagination to create something awesome.
