Tiny Tank

The tiny minds of the TLCB Elves are often attracted to tiny things. This small, clean, fun build is the work of The Digster on MOCpages.

Shed Your Inhibitions…

We found a pair of elves giggling in a corner over a picture of this strange creation, which appears to be a shed mounted on caterpillar tracks. This vehicle has been built by Halfbeak, over on Flickr. Click the link to see Halfbeak’s work and to access photos of the real-life vehicle that this MOC is based on. What would you do in your all-terrain shed? Polite suggestions only please…

Fast Fish

In the days before the internet, inspiration for Lego sci-fi models was hard to find. Some people were lucky enough to stumble upon the Terran Trade Authority series of books in their local library. Last week we featured Mark Stafford’s version of Peter Elson’s “Trader to the Stars”.

Now, just when you thought it was safe to go back in your spaceship, comes Shannon Sproule’s Proximan K-13 Shark. Based on Angus McKie’s original artwork, Shannon’s build uses a variety of greebles, including a pair of snow shoes and a sausage, to re-create this alien classic. As this is The Lego Car Blog, we should point out that there’s a car wheel rim hidden in there too. Spot more greebles and enjoy the nostalgia on Shannon’s Flickr page.
