We also earned our record for the most negative co ..read more

Here at a high-mid northern latitude, TLCB Team have been waiting for the arrival of spring. It’s getting light into the evenings, plants are waking up, and adventures are easier to find. Cue today’s creation, this splendidly orange fully remote controlled Jeep Wrangler by previous bloggee gyenesvi. With Powered-Up four-wheel-drive and steering, live-axle suspension, and removable doors, hard-top, roll-bar, and winch, gyenesvi’s Wrangler is just the thing for springtime adventures. It’s been duly taken on a few too, with some superb on-location shots on the mountain trails outside the city. T ..read more

TLCB Master MOCer Thirdwigg continues to expand his Mercedes-Benz Unimog catalogue. This one is a U5000 short cab tipper, meaning there’s more room to put stuff to tip. A three-way (snigger) tipping bed, working steering, high/low gearbox, rear suspension, piston engine, plus front and rear winches all feature, and you can see more – including a link to building instructions if you’d like to create it yourself – by clicking here ..read more

Have you ever wondered what your car (or a car you really like… or even dislike for that matter) would look like in Lego form? Well The Lego Car Blog is here to help! Whilst our Archives, rumoured to be inhabited by a band of long-lost and now-ferrel Elves, are a dark and bewildering place, you can access them digitally via the search box on every page. And fortunately for us, we have an intern, who we can send into the archival catacombs to retrieve past vehicular curiosities. Thus one mildly-traumatised intern later we can today commence a brand new series; Find My Car in Lego! With so many ..read more

Poop poop! It’s time for a vintage car here at The Lego Car Blog. Because vintage cars are cool. This one – inspired by the classic LEGO 5920 Island Racer set – uses parts from the Speed Champions 96907 Lotus Evija plus a raft of black hoses and clips beautifully. Entitled simply ‘#50’, there’s more to see courtesy of Flickr’s atp357; click the link above for a vintage race ..read more

This ginormous green machine is a DAF XG, the brand’s 2021 replacement for the XF truck that is ubiquitous across Western Europe, and here at TLCB too. Constructed by MCD in 1:21 scale from around 1,300 pieces, this brilliantly-built replica of the XG – shown here pulling a tipper trailer designed by fellow builder Niklas Kaemer – features working steering, opening doors, and a whole lotta lime. Building instructions are available and you can find out more at both the Eurobricks discussion forum and MCD’s ‘2021 DAF XG 4×2’ Rebrickable page. Click the links to take a look ..read more

It’s been over a decade since Breaking Bad (AKA The Best Thing That’s Ever Been on TV Ever) concluded, yet the seminal show is still inspiring Lego builds. Cue Nick Kleinfelder and this wonderful recreation of the infamous 1986 Fleetwood Bounder RV methlab that starred throughout out the series. Complete with mini-figure Walter White and Jesse Pinkman, Nick’s cooked up a model of incredible detail, using a complex formula of ingenious building techniques. You can see how Nick’s done it at his photostream, and you can jump to the New Mexico desert via the link above ..read more

It’s been a while without any cars here at The Lego ‘Car’ Blog, so today we’re on to trains. But we like trains. Particularly when they’re as beautifully built and presented as this one. This huge diorama of a tiny train was constructed by builder Evancelt for the ‘2024 Rocky Mountain Train Show’ in Denver, and a more apt creation it’s hard to think of. Travelling between two mountain tunnels by way of some cunningly concealed magnets that move under the tracks, Evancelt’s little steam train is a wonderful example of shrinking the scale to expand the detail. From the micro-scale pick-up truck ..read more

We all know that James Bond can seduce any woman in less time than it takes to read this sentence. Yup, if you’re a girl (What? We have female readers! Probably…), you’d already be, well.. you know. Cue László Torma, and this magnificent Speed Champions Lotus Esprit S1, the star the 1977 Bond film ‘The Spy Who Loved Me’. Of course in the aforementioned movie, Bond’s Lotus was fitted with a few optional extras courtesy of Q-Branch / the Pinewood special effects department, which meant that his Esprit could get rather more aquatic than most. A car submarine chase of utter ridiculousness was the ..read more

This splendid creation – pictured in front of some equally splendid wallpaper – is a GAZ-21 Volga, a Soviet large sedan produced from the mid-’50s until 1970. The most luxurious car available to individual owners within the USSR, the GAZ-21 was styled to resemble ’50s American cars, and even featured a Ford-licensed column-change gearbox, despite the rather frosty relations between the two countries at the time. Constructed by previous bloggee paave, this Technic recreation of the GAZ-21 remarkably features that column-change gearbox, along with a working 4-cylinder engine, independent front ..read more
