Summer Blockbuster Contest!

The Pacific Coast Highway LEGO User Group (PCHLUG) is running a fun LEGO contest! The theme is Summer Blockbuster. The catch? You can only use 101 pieces! 😮

The deadline is the 31st of July, so there is plenty of time! You can build anything fr0m comic-book heroes to giant fighting robots and from side-splitting comedies to battling wizards. It doesn’t have to be from this summer (actually, it doesn’t have to be from any summer) just make sure it’s from a big movie! 😀

Got your creative juices flowing? Check out the contest details, eligibility, prizes and how to submit your entry here: PCHLUG Summer Blockbuster Challenge!

And remember; there is still time to enter the Next Generation of Space Travel Contest and the Pirates of the Caribbean Contest! And if you would like some ideas, check out Tips for Winning a LEGO Contest!

Good luck! 😉

Riding the waves!

Check out this small LEGO-vignette from Klementina Kosh for some real clever techniques! It is amazing how such beautiful curves and dynamic action can be achieved with little plastic bricks! (Click on the picture for a larger view in Klementina’s gallery.)

The wave is created with 1×2 plates and 1×1 round-plates, and the air-mattress takes advantage of the flexibility of a LEGO net piece. I can see this technique being useful in many other LEGO creations!

These minifigs are obviously enjoying themselves! 8)
