When Batman came out in 1989 it was a full week before I got to see it (crunch time on the Ghostbusters attraction at Universal) and by that time I heard all my friends tear it to shreds. I went in with low expectations...and loved it, still do. There are some eye roll moments, but this was the first super hero movie that wasn't just downright silly or bad, and it still holds up. This pivotal scene where Joker tries to poison the residents of Gotham with festive parade floats (spoilers!) has been gloriously recreated in bricks by builder Cpt. Brick, and I totally love it.

Having recently joined the half century club, I can sort of relate to this MOC by builder tankm. Not that I'm using a cane yet, but I'm certainly not in the fresh flush of youth any more. According to the builder this is a future self portrait, and I think it's wonderful. We should all imagine ourselves enjoying beautiful places in the winter of our lives.

Dragonball Z was one of my favorite animes growing up. It's completely ridiculous, but so much fun. Legendary builder Moko has made a MOC of Super Saiyan Vegeta in his Great Ape form (long story...). He captured the look perfectly, and I love how pose-able he looks. How will Goku get out of this pickle? TUNE IN NEXT TIME ON DRAGONBALL Z! Original linkOriginal author: James Morr
Humans have always envied birds. For as long as we've been looking up, we've been longing to take to the skies. Thankfully, we were clever enough to figure out how, and flying airplanes is now the aspiration. Like this little one by builder tankm, we can all dream of flight, and the dream is within reach.

Lord of the Rings fans should recognize this, it's the White City, Minas Tirith in the realm of Gondor. This build by Swan Dutchman is technically a micro build, but when it's of a subject on this scale, even in micro it's a huge undertaking. According to Koen it took about 6 months and is composed of over 11,500 parts! Just look at all the detail, it's amazing. Original linkOriginal author: Tommy
