Possible LEGO Simpson Figures Spotted on Ebay

These two possible (probable?) official Simpson figures were just sold on Ebay for $56. While the torsos and legs are most likely just random parts grabbed from a bin, the heads look genuine. With a good amount of detail, and a smooth, LEGO look. We won't know for sure till we see the sets, but there's a good chance that these are real. Especially considering what's appeared on Ebay in the past.

More 2014 Ninjago Set Images

Swedish Toy website Brixit has released images of three of the new 2014 Ninjago sets. The sets have a very high dose of cyborg in them. Which isn't necessarily a bad thing. Depends on how much you like cyborgs.

The first set is 70724 Ninjacopter. An obvious Zane set. White seems to be a reoccurring color with him. Couldn't have anything to do with him being the ninja of ice, could it?

 70720 Hovering Hunter. Cole gets to smash the heads of bad guys in this set. And with a nifty (and dangerous) looking flail.

 70725 Nindroid Mech Dragon. This set looks to be the "epic showdown" set for the wave thus far. A massive cyborg dragon and a cool Ninja dune-buggy are the highlights. Though I wonder about the grey-haired minifig with the staff. Who is he? Time will tell.

What are your thoughts on the newest Ninjago sets? Let us know in the comments below!

The Incredible Hulk by Outer Rim Emperor

Bruce Banner transforms into the Hulk and beats the stuffing out of four punk-motorcyclists in this MOC by Outer Rim Emperor. The thing that caught my eye was the lighting. I do love me a well-lit MOC!

See it on Mocpages.

Tribull by Nick V

When I saw this I'm pretty sure my jaw hit the keyboard. I haven't seen too many of Nick V's MOCs. But They are all fantastic. I highly recommend you go over to his Flickr page and check them out.
Meanwhile, his Tribull is positively overwhelming! NPU to the last letter!

MOCOlympics Round 2: Blake Baer vs. Jamesuniverse

Blake Baer is always in his element during the MocOlympics. This was evident last year, and this year he is (could it be possible?) even better. And this MOC is why!
Just an excellent build all around. Highlights are the wings on the horse, the archway, and the forced perspective city. But the whole MOC deserves a better look.

LEGO 10243 Parisian Restaurant

LEGO's newest installment in the Modular Buildings line is the stunning 10243 Parisian Restaurant. I honestly have no complaints about this set. It's top-quality, and immensely detailed. Check out all the clever uses for parts. Not the least of which are the fangs for the plants. Definitely another winner for LEGO!

US $159.99 – CA $189.99 – DE 149.99 € – UK 132.99 £ – DK 1299.00 DKK

It’s very busy in the Parisian Restaurant. As a scooter zips by, inside the waiter rushes between the tables as the nervous young man gets ready to propose with the ring! It’s just as hectic behind the scenes, with the chef busily preparing the food. This beautifully detailed building is the setting for so many stories and is a great addition to the modular building series. The Parisian Restaurant has a fully-stocked, blue and white tiled kitchen with tableware as well as a cozy apartment with pull-down bed, kitchenette and fireplace. On the top floor is the artist’s room with a studio that includes a cast iron heater, easel, paintbrush and two works of art by the aspiring artist. Outside, stairs lead down to the roof terrace lined with hanging lanterns and flowers where the diners eat alfresco-style. This amazing Parisian Restaurant model even includes a facade with croissants, clams and feather details that recapture the feel of Paris. Includes 5 minifigures: chef, waiter, girl and a romantic couple.

Good job LEGO! Keep it up, and you'll be more than the second biggest toy company!

Passing Sherwood by LL Lolino

Check out this wonderful, oddly shaped MOC by LL Lolino. It must have been a bit of a trick to get the water to flow the way it is. But obviously the work payed off, as you can tell.
I applaud LL's building technique. It really is fabulous. Captures the forest perfectly.

See it on Mocpages.

Clavin Mosaic by Alex Rhode

It's everyone's favorite comic-book character in this little mosaic by Alex Rhode. Alex says it was only a short 45 minute build, but short is sweet for this MOC. And I'm sure there are some us who couldn't do something this good with twice as much time.

See it on Mocpages.

2014 High-res Ninjago Images

The first high-res 2014 Ninjago set images have been released. It appears the ninjas' are going cyborg! And from the looks of these three sets, the 4th (and hopefully last) installment is bringing back a bit of Exo-Force style. Especially with the new hair. Which I'm really excited for!

Thanks to Eurobricks for the pictures!

Check out multiple images and a description for each of the three the sets below.

LEGO CUUSOO: Sherlock Crosses 10,000

After a very short time (by CUUSOO standards), the project Sherlock has reached 10,000 supporters. Most of us shouldn't be surprised at this news considering the shows' fan base. Though I wonder how LEGO will react to this project. I don't watch the show so I really can't say how I think it will do, but as long as they make the Consultation room, a very nice model in my opinion, I'll rejoice with the Sherlock fans out there.

Sorry for my absence. There are multiple reasons for it, none of which I'll explain here. I'll make it up to you all.

M.O. Round 1; Sagittarius The Centaur by Lego Junkie

The MocOlympics are back! I feel like it was just a few months ago that I was saying it, but it has been over a year! Of course, like most Mocpages contests, the MocOlympics brings out some fantastic MOCs. And this Centaur by Lego Junkie is no exception.
I just love the whole MOC! From the great rock and tree work, to the fragile helmet, all the way to the six-pack on this guy- er, centaur.
Check out this MOC and many more ones like it in the 2013 MocOlympics group.

LEGO CUUSOO: Macross VF-1 Valkyrie + Fast Pack/ Armored Parts Reaches 10,000

In the latest CUUSOO news, the Macross VF-1 Valkyrie + Fast Pack/ Armored Parts project has recently reached 10,000 supporters. This is the end of a two year journey for this project. Very long, but very much worth it. I would really like to see where The LEGO Group takes a set like this.
There are quite a few other projects that are rapidly gaining popularity and supporters. One of these is the new Sherlock project that has just crossed the 3,200 supporter mark.
