Awesome Legos

Ready to fire some rubberbands on your office-mates? Grab a copy of Martin Hudepohl’s detailed manual, which shows you exactly how to build five devilish Lego Technic-powered weapons.

There’s some really fun and quirky storytelling here in stop-motion filmmaker and AFOL Chris Salt’s video; it’s an entirely brick-animated clip for one of the latest tracks by Printed Circuit.

The talented Ben Caulkins has built a remarkable Master Chief helmet completely from LEGOS which features many fine details, including the dazzling gold visor (from a modified motorcycle helmet).

While you may think you’re over the age limit for a game rated “E” for everyone, but we’re still looking forward to making our own personal minifigs and taking over the world, brick by plastic brick.

Popular Mechanics rounded up 8 of the best LEGO mods that they’ve seen, including a telescope, an ATM and an air conditioner. They may still look like toys, but all of the gadgets are functional.

These tough-ass minifigs were inked using ballpoint pens. Barcelona-based Grey agency made these pictures for a series of Pilot pen advertisements. We wonder if LEGO would approve of these.

The guys behind this LEGO machine are real pinball wizards. It’s built from ~8000 LEGOs, including 6 NXT robots, 9 touch sensors, 10 light sensors and 4 motors. Only the ball isn’t a LEGO part.

We love horseattack’s supercool LEGO felt tip 110 printer, made from analog motor electronics, sensors and printer driver. Wondering if those markers are the scented kind. (Thanks to all!)

This badass LEGO sniper rifle, made by Lee Enfield, is a working magazine-fed rifle in bolt action configuration, with detachable mags that hold LEGO bricks, scope and bi-pod. (Thanks Krzysztof!)

This T-800 was built entirely out of LEGOs, and is sure to scare the crap out of anyone who tries to stand in its way. Of course, you could always crush it in a compactor if you want to stop it.

Something about the primary colors and that smiley Lego head on this tee from teextile takes us back to a kinder, gentler place. Printed on slate American Apparel tees using softhand plastisol ink.

Homesickness prompted artist Cristoph Niemann to create vignettes of his hometown, New York, using LEGO bricks. Has all the pictures originally posted on his blog, plus some new ones.

Disguised as a Saleen ‘Stang, Barricade was easily one of the hottest Transformers in the ’07 movie; uber-brick guru Gyuta (who also did Wall-E) is back with an amazing LEGO version.

We’re still trying to count all the turrets on this monster LEGO replica of Space Battleship Yamato; this classic anime actually bested Star Wars at the Japanese box office in 1977.

Anyone can build a simulacrum of Wall-E out of Legos, but Korean brick fanatic Gyuta has built a version that can transform itself into Wall-E’s cube form as well as motor around on treads.

Poetically titled 19 Seconds to Find God, this striking LEGO diorama by Brian Kescenovitz instantly makes us think of The Matrix with robots dismembering minifigs left and right.
