LEGO creations by master builders to awaken your playful child
Remember when we used to spend our summer holidays and free time after school tinkering with LEGO blocks, and sometimes trudging on them with our feet? Fun times, right? But, LEGO is no longer considered child’s play! Master builders, artists and LEGO enthusiasts around the world create awesome LEGO constructions that will blow your mind. They are the result of their hours of dedication, attention to detail, hard work and creativity. They can be considered works of art, and I enjoy browsing these creations, admiring them and feeling an intense rush of satisfaction with their perfection. And, we have selected the best of the lot for you to drool and go gaga!
1. The New Back to the Future LEGO Machine
The new LEGO Back to the Future Time Machine is improved, detailed and better than ever! The jazzed-up build features a Flux Capacitor light brick, gullwing doors and printed dash dates. You can add the different equipment from different parts of the movie – including the lightning rod from the first movie and the hood-mounted circuit from Part III!
2. The Atari 2600
This LEGO set is a sequel to the Nintendo Entertainment System comprising 2,646 pieces – but there’s no denying the significantly higher perceived value of the Atari 2600 set. To keep things interesting for gamers who love all things classic 70 or 80, there are the three cartridges of the classic games – Asteroids, Adventure and Centipede – sliding into the main body of the brick console. Each of the games also gets a matching mini figure to complete the look.
3. LEGO “I Am Groot”
Inspired by Marvel’s famous sentient tree that can only speak the words “I am Groot”, this little figure does a really good job as a real action figure that you can build and then play with. Crafted from 467 bricks, the Baby Groot Statue is ideal for kids over ten and Marvel fans well into adulthood. The I Am Groot also builds sporty movable limbs with adjustable fingers and an ever-smiling face reminiscent of the dancing baby Groot from the second Guardians of the Galaxy movie!
4. LEGO Speed Champions
This LEGO playset with 2 Mercedes-AMG racers lets you collect, build and race your very own LEGO speed champion. In fact, it’s just like the real thing – it’s been given genuine Mercedes design details. This one is a must have for LEGO lovers!
5. The LEGO Batmobile
Inspired by the plot of the roller coaster movie, TaeYang Lee tried to recreate the mood of the film but failed to live up to his own expectations. Later, he discovered Mecabricks, a LEGO modeling tool, and that’s how this awesome build was born. Much like the on-screen Batmobile, this one also takes place in a dark, dark world that amplifies its sinister character.
6. Vintage LEGO Toaster
In the latest series of weirdly awesome LEGO builds that actually work (like this LEGO lawn mower or this LEGO Polaroid camera), Dimexart’s Vintage LEGO Toaster is a pretty cool retro-inspired appliance that turns slices of bread sourdough into a nice golden toast. The entire build is LEGO (including the toast, unfortunately) and uses approximately 658 LEGO bricks, plus 2 rubber bands that allow the toast to pop out of the device!
7. The Starry Night LEGO Set
The Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh LEGO set is a 3D rendering of the Dutch Post-Impressionist painter’s famous oil painting on canvas. It’s another figment of a Lego designer’s imagination put into production and turned into reality from an idea. The final production set is on sale and ready to sell quickly.
8.Lego Great Pyramid of Giza
Now you can recreate one of the ancient wonders of the world – ta Great Pyramid of Giza! The beautifully detailed cutaway construction includes main tunnels, chambers, and the system that may have been used to move large rocks and boulders during construction. He even understands 2 small pyramids, 2 mortuary temples, statues of Sphinxes, a working village and an obelisk.
9. The LEGO Kumbi Saleh 3020 CE
Using over 100,000 LEGO pieces, designer Ekow Nimako imagines the Kumbi Saleh 3020 CE a Ghanaian metropolis 1000 years in the future. This artwork is the centerpiece of his exhibit titled Building Black Civilizations and features detail like you’ve never seen before, almost reminiscent of the Game of Thrones title sequence!
10. LEGO Botanical Collection
Designed to provide users with a means of rest and relaxation, the Botanical Collection is like a kind of three-dimensional puzzle that merges the childlike joy of LEGO building blocks with the patient play of puzzles. While children and adults enjoy collecting LEGO blocks and building microscopic cityscapes from that collection, the Botanical Collection marks a clear effort by the toy block company to “adult” their LEGO collection.
