Valentines Day Special

Lego Yacht

Today we’re calling upon the collective experience of the entire TLCB staff to bring you some top quality dating advice this valentines day, in Lego form.

First up is the beautiful classic yacht above, built by TLCB favourite ER0L. There’s nothing more romantic than a luxury boat, and if we were a mini-figure this would be our vehicle of choice with which to woo the limited supply of LEGO womenfolk. ER0L’s even added mood lighting by the way of Power Functions LEDs, and you can see more via the link above.

Our second love-inducing creation is probably at the other end of the romantic scale being, well – what looks like a hospital bed with a steering wheel. Still, it’s got some plastic flowers and there’s a camera to capture the ‘special’ moment, and that works for your Mom every time.

Billyburg is the builder and you can see more of his Lunar Love Buggy on Flickr.

Lego Vintage Scene

This creation is a little unusual for us, seeing as it’s not really a car. But it does contain several vehicles, and they’re properly good too, so it’s earned its place here. Dario Minisini’s 1920s port scene was suggested to us by a reader, and it includes everything you could hope for in a snapshot of vintage America, including a gangster-operated distillery. There’s lots more to see at Dario’s Flickr page – click here to make the trip.

Lego Motor Yacht

Because millionaire mini-figures need to get from Long Island to Manhattan too.

JBIronWorks has built one of the more luxurious ways to commute to Wall Street with his beautiful recreation of the 1929 motor yacht ‘Mohican’, and it looks the perfect bath-toy for TLCB executive jacuzzi.

The real classic yacht is currently up for sale for a cool $1million, but if that’s a bit out of your reach you can pretend with JB on Flickr. Money can’t buy you happiness anyway. Although it can buy you a $1million motor yacht.

Lego Ford Model A Ute

This Ford Model A flatbed, or ‘ute’ for our Australian readers, is the work of Aussie builder Parrington Levens. Mr. Levens has utilised* some very old parts for his very old truck, and they look rather nice in this context. You can see more of this beautiful ute on MOCpages.

Lego Hot Rod Salt Flats

We’ve featured _Tiler‘s awesome BMW-powered Ford Model-A hot rod here at The Lego Car Blog before, and he’s recently released a few new salt-flat photographs that are too good to pass up. Based on a real 1928 Model-A Ford built by hot rod builder Mike Burroughs, _Tiler’s Lego version is one of the star mini-figure scale models of 2013. See all the new photographs on Flickr at the link above.
