Soul of the Sea

We hadn’t heard of Lauren Landers until today, but thanks to Brick.Ninja and this beautiful brick-built recreation of her ‘Soul de la Mar’ sailing yacht, this TLCB Writer has been able to conduct extensive research.

Balanced on just three studs above a coral reef, Brick has captured Lauren’s 1993 Beneteau Oceanis 510 in wonderful detail, including one of the neatest hulls we’ve seen yet.

There’s lots more of this fabulous build to see at Brick’s ‘Soul de la Mar’ album via the link above, and if you wish to conduct your own ‘research’ on the real life vessel (and the girl captaining it) you can take a look here. You’re welcome.

Lego Datsun 510 BRE

At last, The Lego Car Blog has a proper car to bring you! And quite a legendary one at that. This marvellous Model Team model is a Datsun 510 as raced by BRE during the early-seventies. Underneath the perfectly replicated body-work (complete with accurate custom decals) is a fully remote control Power Functions chassis. It might be Model Team but this creation has a Technic heart. Infraredbrick’s Dastun has appeared on TLCB before in a previous form, but a racing version is always better! See more – including construction photographs – on Infraredbrick’s Flickr photo stream here.

Before Nissan were famous for Skylines and GTRs, they made stuff like this; the wonderful Datsun 510. Infraredbrick has recreated the Japanese pocket rocket, and added a few modifications too. Click his name to find out what they are…
