LEGO Minecraft alternate models

I have been experimenting with my LEGO Minecraft sets quite a bit lately; building alternate models and configurations (I have all three of the LEGO Minecraft sets and it is really fun to combine them! You can find them at the Online LEGO Shop.) Today I would like to share with you some alternate models that I found at the LEGO Minecraft Facebook Page. 🙂

LEGO Minecraft Alternate Models

The four LEGO fans who helped create the first LEGO Minecraft Micro World set (#21102) got together and created a series of alternate models using parts from the set. (Please note that since the second and third LEGO Minecraft Micro World sets got released, the first set has been renamed to LEGO Minecraft Micro World: The First Night. Also, LEGO is currently working on developing minifigure-size Minecraft sets for future release. See link at the end of this post for more details.)

LEGO Minecraft Alternate Model

Some of these concepts of the alternate models fit with the Minecraft theme, and others explore what else is possible with the LEGO elements included in the first LEGO Minecraft set. Check them out and be inspired by the possibilities! (You can see larger pictures here.)

LEGO Minecraft Alternates

Bjarne created a Minecraft-themed phone alarm-clock holder that is quite functional. Chris built an alternate Minecraft scene with a small fort, another one with a rocket launch-pad, and a third one with a space-station. Kyle designed a Creeper cactus, a Creeper T-shirt, and an alternate Minecraft scene with more spacious caves. And Michael came up with a Minecraft castle, a micro city with high-rise buildings and elevated train, a large light-house, and also a nice little well.

If you have the #21102 LEGO Minecraft set I recommend you try to these! And of course you can also build your own alternate models. The LEGO Minecraft sets are a perfect introduction to micro-building as in each of the sets you get lots and lots of small elements in really nice colors. And of course if you are a Minecraft fan you can keep building and re-building your LEGO Minecraft world in any way you want! Below are the currently available LEGO Minecraft sets at the Online LEGO Shop.

Make your own LEGO holiday greeting-card!

If you haven’t sent out all your holiday greeting cards yet, here is a fun way to do it; LEGO released a little browser-based app called Minifigure Family. The app lets you create your own holiday greeting card, and adding your very own fully customized LEGO minifigs to represent your family members and even your pets! 🙂

LEGO Holiday Greeting Card

Just go to the LEGO Minifigure Family website to begin. In the first step you can add up to 13 family members; including adults, children, babies (in strollers), dogs and cats. You can customize each member’s skin-color, face, headgear/hair, and clothes. And you can also add their names.

In the next step you can choose from a whole bunch of different backgrounds for your family; the North Pole, the beach, a forest, in front of a fire-place or lovely Christmas tree, and more. At this point you can also move your family members around to different positions. All the step and options are easy to follow and fun to play with, so anyone can do it!

LEGO Holiday Card App

In the last step you can download and print out your LEGO holiday greeting card, or email it to family and friends, or even use social media like Facebook, Twitter, Google+ and Pinterest to share it. And that’s it! 😀

So did you make your own LEGO holiday greeting card? How many people did you send it to? Oh, and if you want you are welcome to send me one too! Have fun and Happy Holidays! 😉
