Mini Greek Temple

 A miniature Greek temple by blakeydrums, small enough to fit an iPod Nano container. This isn't the most impressive or creative build, but I think it's pretty neat. He mentioned on Reddit that he may start a whole series of builds like this, so that may be worth watching for.

The Building Blocks of Life

 Reddit user devlinux posted this really neat build to the /r/lego subreddit. The strand doesn't actually code for anything, but it still makes for a rather fun and interesting build.

Life-sized Bag End

 This life-sized Lego version of Bag End was built by 12 employees over a period of 3000 hours. It consists of over 2 million bricks and features working lights (my favorite) and actual smoke from the chimney. I'm not sure what this was built for, but it is incredibly awesome nonetheless.

Lego scale model of NYC

 Not really. But it is really cool piece. This digital render was made by 3D artist JR Schmidt, using maps and satellite data. This should be made. I think it would make for a really awesome build.

Yay! Sonic Screwdriver!

 One of the coolest sci-fi tools ever, from my absolute favorite show. The Tenth Doctor's sonic screwdriver by Bruce Lowell (bruceywan), effective against just about everything, expect deadlocked seals and wood.

Space Jump Recreated in Lego


 By now you all have probably seen Felix Baumgartner's 129,000 ft. skydive (if not, watch it). This would be that jump, performed by minifigs. Enjoy!

Oh... My... God

 I can't even begin to describe how beautiful this is. Carlyle Livingston II and Wayne Hussey spent over 800 hours putting together this Batcave. The cave itself is comprised of over 20000 individual elements, weighs over 100 lbs., and has motorized parts and its own lighting system! These men are gods to me.
