We’ve featured a LEGO Helm’s Deep before, but that pales in comparison with this version built by Goel Kim and Big J. Made up of over 150,000 bricks and 2,000 mini-figs it took a year and a half of preparation and six months to build.
There’s a huge selection of photos on MOCpages and Flickr showing off the sheer scale and detail of the diorama.

Relax, degenerate, and behold this fully-functioning but deeply silly App-controlled XBox disc autochanger built by LEGO nut Zwekka from 3,000 parts including three LEGO Mindstorms NXT micro-computers, seven NXT servos, an R/C motor and a light sensor.

Plenty of time for you to take a wazz into that empty Fanta bottle without getting up.
Another in a long line of insta-buys, if real (which, sadly, this isn’t) – a LEGOised Breaking Bad game.
Margaret Atwood once called scifi “talking squids in outer space“.
But that’s just, you know, her opinion, man.
This excellent cephalopod-on-Star Destroyer diorama by Iain Heath for Emerald City Comiccom now sits in the lobby of his employers, Tableau Software.

Vasil Vasil has “created a delicate and extremely elegant road bike where the vivid colours combined with the creative parts usage makes for a very pleasing model to view”.
