Me and the wonderful world of Lego

Here is my first steps into Blogging... odd as I am quite old [that doesn't quite sound like I wanted it too!]
You might have seen me on Flickr though.

I love Lego and that's what I'll be blogging about, from great minifigs to awesome mocs via whatever else I find (o:

By the power of Grayskull!

Check out this awesome custom He-Man lego minifigure by Lil grizzle. He custom designed the armour and weapons himself, which is pretty awesome if you ask me. I love to see pushing themselves to create Lego minifigures.

TCW Aquatic Assault Trooper

Interesting custom cast here from The Clone Factory. I hadn't seen this guys work before and it looks okay and quite Lego-y.

Big Daddy Bouncer

I just came across this custom by .guin. I really love the customising on that helmet... it's from Bioshock right? I've never played it but this is a top notch lego custom minifigure. Very nice (o:

Spartan custom

Not quite sure how I missed this... KalSkirata has tried to make a custom spartan (which I am told is from Halo... although I have never played Halo, so I wouldn't know how close this looks to the original) using just parts made by Lego, which have been modified. I like the overall look of the figure, particularly the worn effect on the armour.

And some other pictures which caught my eye...

This little scene made me chuckle... thanks Pedro Vezini!  Although not strictly a custom here certainly worth a mention (o:

Quite a nice little Dr Who custom here.... although to me the hair says 11th and the suit says 10th... this comes from Brickdon

I wish they would have listened to Master Yoda... thanks Lego.Skrytsson. This helps to explain my HUGE disappointment with the 2011 Lego Star Wars advent calendar... Santa Yoda!?!  and that's just for starters... I wont post the other contents incase you dont want spoilers but for me, they have got them totally wrong and I will not be getting one! (I can't believe I am saying it... I love Lego Star Wars, really a lot. I was massively excited by the announcement of the calendar but I almost cried when I heard about the contents. Buck your ideas up Lego!) oooh... I'm starting to rant.... but, they need to check their pricings on new Lego Star Wars sets too... far too expensive! Right, I'm done (o:
