Post Apocalyptic ‘Gangs’ by legohaulic

Legohaulic has built some very nice post-apoc gangs to inhabit the barren, deserted landscape.


I liked these guys mouth pieces, they’re cool.
The Guy on the far left is wearing troll pants (from the Harry Potter troll set).
This one is really cool. The leader looks awesome. I also like how the grunts’ helmets look.

Shellshock by Adrian Florea

Adrian Florea has posted an awesome evil transformer, Shellshock, which actually transforms.

After almost two months I’ve finally managed to finish this damned thing. The weather here is completely awefull, the heat makes anything I touch instantly stick to me. Anyway, I wanted to build a transformer for a very long time, i’ve had numerous failed attempts (helicopters, hot-rods, helicopters), every time I searchd for a unique alternate model, this made it even more of a challenge, trying to stay true to the original American M3 Halftrack from WWII. This model is a definition of my building style, it’s extremely unstable because I tried to score a high cool-factor, and manage a complex transformation with numerous msmall moving parts. The robot mode is familiar to the busy looking transformers from the movie, it has a slight resemblance to Brawn and Blackout.

We have received hundreds of supportive emails in the past few days including many who said they would like to contribute financially but did not know how.

Inspired by Cafe Corner

Peachtree has created a neighborhood to surround the Cafe Corner (10182) set. Peachtree has added what look to be some new shops and houses. Of course, pictures are worth a thousand words so, rather than making me write 3000+ words, check out the gallery yourself.
