First-time visitors to this website today may not have expected to see images of a Lego Ferrari on fire, but you’re here now so on with the show! This is a Ferrari F355 Spider. Specifically it’s depicting the moment when the real car – owned by YouTuber ‘Hoovie’s Garage’ – decided to spray its power-steering […]
Uh oh – cyberpunk! A genre about which we know less than your Mom does about portion control. Still, despite this incompetence, we absolutely love this scene by Flickr’s Slick_Brick, which is packed with so much brilliant detail even TLCB Staff have stopped to take a look. And usually that only happens for some obscure […]
Modifications are an integral part of the automotive scene. Mostly for the worse of course, as Brad in his garage is not going to better the five years and $billions in development completed by the world’s best engineers before each model to hits the market*. Sometimes though, modifications do work – particularly when the aforementioned […]
The McLaren F1, once the fastest production car in the world, a Le Mans 24 Hours winner, and – if you are very rich indeed – a default choice for the car collection. 3D supercarBricks, whose Le Mans winning McLaren appeared here earlier in the year, has now turned his very talented hands to the […]
OK, we can’t even remember the last time we featured a Lego website, and we’re not going into TLCB Archives to check, what with there being a band of feral Elves in there somewhere. But no matter, because even if this should more accurately be titled ‘Website of the Year’, ‘Bricks Garage‘ would still qualify. […]
…is always a terrible idea. Every few years a new ‘F1 car for the road’ is announced, and it is inevitably an unreliable, undrivable, top-trumps card. But then Mercedes-Benz AMG decided to have a go, and the result is… an unreliable, undrivable top-trumps card. However perhaps that’s not as daft as it sounds. All 275 […]
Wealthy criminals, Dubai-based influencers, rappers, and oil sheiks – this is your car. The Mercedes-Benz AMG G63 6×6 is probably the most pointless vehicle produced today. OK, apart from this one, but the brief is pretty much the same; be an Ostentatious Asshat. Still, if you’re reading this and you’re seven, a TLCB Elf, or […]
Is there anything more automotively dreary than an American full-size sedan? OK, American mid-size SUVs, which have almost completely replaced the sedan market, are the new pinnacle of blandness, but we’re not sure that even they can eclipse a grey Ford Crown Victoria. This Lego version of the wheeled white space comes from Flickr’s Ralph […]
Before Tony Stark became Iron Man (or maybe during – we’re not really in to the whole Marvel Universe thing), he also tinkered with hot rods, as depicted in this ace recreation of a scene from the first(?) Iron Man movie by Flickr’s Hans Dendauw. A Ford flathead hot rod with a sweet flame paint-job […]
The lovely vintage workshop scene was discovered by one of our Elves on Flickr today, and whilst it doesn’t feature any racing stripes it does use no less than sixteen LEGO train track switch pieces throughout the build. See if you can spot them with a trained eye* hidden in Mrs. Miller’s library van and […]
Andre Pinto is the builder behind many of the motorbikes that have appeared here over the years, and he’s now built a workshop to house them. Complete with an impressive array of superbly detailed tools and equipment, including a ramp, compressor, pallet truck, tyre fitter, and – that workshop essential – a girly calendar, there’s […]
Having just posted a hugely valuable exotic car built from another hugely valuable exotic car, you might be surprised to learn that at The Lego Car Blog, we rather prefer the ordinary. So much so we’re running a building competition in search of boring vehicles. You see, it’s easy to make a squillion-dollar supercar that […]
No really, it is. Because this amazing Lamborghini Countach 5000 Quattrovalvole is built entirely from the pieces found within the official LEGO 10295 Porsche 911 set. How Firas Abu-Jaber has managed to turn a vehicle renowned for its curves into one famous for its straight lines has broken every brain here at TLCB Towers, but […]
After posting definitely Not a Car yesterday, here’s over a dozen! Ralph Savelsberg‘s brilliant expanding classic car garage includes some wonderful pieces of beautiful, historic and iconic American metal. And a Buick Roadmaster. Many of the cars have featured here at The Lego Car Blog over the years and you can see more of Ralph’s scene […]
Children don’t grow up, their toys just get bigger. Proving this point is Daniel Church, who has built this wonderful garage scene complete with a motorcycle, lawnmower, and rotavator, which all look brilliant fun to us. If slightly more likely to remove a body part than they toys of our childhood. Head to Flickr for […]
