World Trade Center, New York by Spencer R.

This is just too beautiful not to post. The model took five years of study and planning, and I can say that the finish was definitely worth the wait.

This is probably one of my favorite micro-scale architecture builds. 

See it on Mocpages and Flickr.

Huge Pirate Town - Pirates of the Caribbean - JR3 Contest by Brian Lyles

Maybe the "Huge" in the title is overdoing it? Nope! Not this time.

This huge pirate town by Brian Lyles is just that. Or maybe... Hugeamongous. It doesn't matter what you wanna call it. This town is definitely worth checking out.

Review: 6865 Captain America's Avenging Cycle

And now for my first ever pictorial review of a LEGO set. I'm not sure how this is gonna go, but let's get on with it.

For this review, I have chosen the new LEGO Marvel Super Heroes: Captain America's Avenging Cycle. 

This set is a must have. Not only for the great figures, but because... Just because! The set is surprisingly large for the amount of pieces. The glider, turret and cycle make a pretty good sized heap when grouped together. One of the biggest heaps I have seen for sets this price.

LEGO is getting ready for their big May The 4th sale next month. And this year's exclusive minifigure will be a chrome TC-14 Protocol Droid.
