Golden Gate
Mariann Asanuma built this great Golden Gate Bridge just in time for the upcoming Bricks by the Bay. If you like it, she's even selling key chains and earrings based on the design.

Plastic Zeppelin
Jeroen Ottens posted this great Hindenberg to Cuusoo. Thanks to his brother Maarten for the heads-up.

Courthouse
Luap31 built this rendition of the Kenosha County Courthouse for a contest. Presumably it is now being incorporated into his great BrickVille layout.

LEGO Minecraft
The upcoming LEGO Minecraft set chosen by Cuusoo users was recently announced at the LEGO World gathering in Denmark, and it is also showing up on such sites as Brickset, FBTB and the LEGO Cuusoo blog (and, amazingly, LEGO seems to have redesigned the press page of their site - I've complained in the past that they never seemed to post their press releases to their own site, so I'd get things like the official press release of the Tolkien theme, or the DC/Marvel themes via other fan sites). Anyway, I guess this counts as microscale. I don't play Minecraft, but these look like the Minecraft pictures I've seen. Mostly I see these as basic brick, plate, and particularly 1x1 tile parts packs. I'll be interested to see a parts breakdown to see if they are cost effective in this manner. That said, I'm sure Minecraft players will greatly enjoy this set and expand upon it from their collections.

Microspace
Doctor Mobius and SKotK are collaborating on a great project. They plan to recreate all of the original Classic Space line in micro form. They've already created a lot of iconic sets.

I particularly appreciate this one, as set 487 was my first Big LEGO set:

The X-1 Patrol Craft was another of my favorites as a kid:

Mini Modulars
Over on Brickset they note that set 10230, Mini-Modulars that was announced last year (at BrickCon?) is now available on lego.com. Apparently for the moment this is for LEGO VIP's only.

Aloft
Titolian has taken floating rocks into different scales. A couple of weeks ago he made aloft, and then today took that same scene and shrank it further.
