Day the Earth Stood Still

I really need to go back and mine the recent Micro Sci-Fi contest for blog posts. I really loved Kristi McWii's Day the Earth Stood Still.

Smurfy-good

Maybe I shouldn't call this micro at all. The techniques are definitely micro, but these Smurfs by Spidertoutouille are probably actually larger than minifig scale.

Micropolis

TwinLUG met this weekend, and, as you can imagine, Micropolis made a showing. Two of my favorites are these by either Nathan Stohlmann or Jennifer Heaton.

Iceberg, dead ahead

Mook built the Titanic.

Mountain Train

Jason Alleman must be doing something right, because his girlfriend is a pretty amazing micro builder. She made this train.

2013 Advent Calendar

One of the sets on display at the NY Toy Fair is the 2013 Star Wars Advent Calendar, full of great mini models.

Palpatine’s Shrink-O-Matic Ray Contest Winners

Winners are in for Palpatine’s Shrink-O-Matic Ray Contest on FBTB:

Fifth place went to Blackninjatom’s Y-Wing.


Fourth to Trooper10′s TIE Fighter (my personal favorite.


Third to Roarsack’s ATTE.


Flynn’s Millenium Falcon came in second.


And, drumroll please, the winner was Sparkart’s ATST.

Takeshi Itou

If you want to see some of the best castle MOCs ever made, check out Takeshi Itou's site Castle Element. He's recently made some beautiful micro castles, including these.

Is there a chance the track could bend?

Not a chance, my Hindu friend!

Lots of great MOCs are being created for the Micro Sci-Fi Contest, including these twoo that feature monorails: Jason Alleman's City of Tomorrow and 4estFeller 2.0's Utopia.

Serenity

Kristi McWii made this beautiful version of the Serenity.

Set phasers to shrink-ray

Spidertoutoutile also built this great bridge of the original Star Trek.

X-Wing

Angus MacLane built this X-Wing for the shrinkomatic contest on FBTB.

Stronghold by the sea

Lego Builder senior built the Stronghold by the sea for the microscale challenge on MOCpages.

Train

Across the falls by Lego Builder senior.

Sidney Myer Music Bowl

Akama1_lego made the Sidney Myer Music Bowl, which I gather is a concert venue in Melbourne.

Old MacDonald had a cow

Old MacDonald had a cow by I Scream Clone.

Micro Sci-Fi Contest

In another contest, Eurobricks invites you to enter the Micro Sci-Fi Contest. In addition to winning LEGO sets, Si-MOCs made these great trophies. Follow the links for contest details. You have until the end of the month to enter.

Shrinkomatic contest

FBTB is hosting Palpatine's Shrink-O-Matic Ray Contest.

You are challenged to build a SW vehicle at the scale of the microfigs found in LEGO games. You know, these guys:


As some inspiration (or intimidation), the first entry I've seen is Chris Maddison's depiction of General Grevious escaping from Obi-Wan:

Iron Giant

Chris Maddison made this wonderful version of the Iron Giant.

Train

Henning Birkeland made this stunning train.
