Children of the Revolución*

We’re rather partial to crap cars here at The Lego Car Blog, as proven by the myriad of shoddy American and Eastern European models to appear here over the years. But if you’re going to make an entrance into the Online Lego Community, picking an ultra-limited track-only variant of one of the world’s most exclusive hypercars to beautifully recreate in Lego form is a surefire way to do it.

Newcomer Mitchell van der Hart has done just that, with his exquisite brick-built replica of the wild Pagani Zonda Revolución, complete with opening doors, fully removable bodywork, and a chassis, engine and interior as highly detailed as the panels that clothe them.

The son of previous bloggee Huib van der Hart (aka Lifting Bricks), Mitchell is making his TLCB debut in the most spectacular way, and you can see more of his first published creation at his ‘Pagani Zonda Revolución’ album via the link above, where we expect more creations will follow.

*Today’s excellent title song.

Barney

We never understood why Barney the Dinosaur was so friendly. Always happy to dance awkwardly and sing a humiliating song, we longed for the day when he’d go feral, eat the children and maul a producer. We’re still waiting for that day to come, but in the meantime we can get our fix of destruction and violence (and an excuse for a clever title) with this brilliant LEGO Friends-themed remote control Dodge T-Rex.

Powered by an XL Motor, plus another two for steering, this colourful 6-wheel-drive creation will climb over almost anything. And it’ll easily squash a group of fleeing Elves if one of their number is at the controls.

Previous bloggee Desert752 Kirill is the builder and you can see more of his friendly T-Rex on MOCpages via the link above, or at the Eurobricks forum here, plus you can see it in action on a tough-looking Truck Trial course courtesy of the video below.

Jeepster

As well as being a terrifying (although also slightly comical) dinosaur and a rather excellent 1970s rock band, T-Rexs also come in a vehicular variety. This is one, built by MOCpages’ Desert752 Kirill, features 6-wheel-drive, 4-wheel-steering and some very green bodywork. You can see more of Desert752’s remote controlled Technic Dodge T-Rex 6×6 at the link above, plus you can see it in action in the video below.
