We gotta great big convoy, rockin' through the night

Jerrec has come down to Earth with his latest micros, a convoy of trucks and a fire brigade. Thanks to Klocki for pointing these out.

The wheels on the bus go round and round

Steven Marshall is back, with a London bus and a house. The stairwell on the bus is a particularly cool detail.

Into the west

Steinreich presents an awesome micro version of the classic set 697, Stagecoach. I particularly like the design of the horses.

More toys

It's time for some more micro-toys for mini-folk. Rick3691 has built a Star Destroyer and another spaceship.


Dspatten has a train set up around the Christmas tree.


Finally, I've blogged this one before, but it deserves multiple mentions. Michael Jasper's great Frechen 2007 shows scenes from a German AFOL gathering. The figs are showing off their creations, including an Eiffel Tower, a Yellow Castle 375, several trains, R2-D2, and micro versions of MOCs that were actually on display at the real event.

Truth, justice, and the teeny tiny way

Brock V and Thomas and Thomas Schaffer made what they call Star Wars super minis, microscale MOCs built with an absolute minimum of pieces. Some of them do look pretty bad, but there are a few that are surprisingly evocative given the very small piece count, such as the Gungun sub, Slave 1, and the Rebel Blockade Runner.




Finally, LOL at the Death Star. That's no moon!

Time for a vacation

Deborah Higdon posted a great Caribbean resort. My favorite detail is the furniture around the pool. Also note how picket fences are incorporated to give a detail to the roof-lines of the bungalows (Jason Alleman helped figure out this detail).

Executor
