LEGO Iconic Vol #7 by Jeff Bond


I am such a huge Lego nerd that words can not explain. Soooo I've decided to use my favorite blog site CCD.com as an outlet to get some of this stuff that I see every day, built out of bricks, out of my skull and onto the blogosphere where it can't hurt my cerebral cortex. Each month I'll be posting the best of the best hoping to inspire the Lego maniac in each of you...young and old.  Enjoy!







I wasn't interested in a iPhone, one bit, until I saw these nifty iPhone snap on case by Smallworks.com which are actually for sale on Amazon.com. DROID, please!




Larry Lars has some explosive 'Halo' customs over on his Flickr page. To me, these actually rival the  exclusive 'Halo' figures sold by the dreaded Lego competitor Mega Blocks. Great job, Mr. Lars!

Flickr member, Joe Baker has created this whimsical rendition of the elder Weasley twins' store 'Weasleys' Wizarding Wheezes' from the Harry Potter novels and films.







For those NOT 'in the know', there's an excellent 'Star Wars' Chibi fighter contest hosted by the From Bricks to Bothans website. Contestants are encouraged to create cute and tiny versions of their favorite 'Star Wars' vehicles. Here's some of their submissions:

McLane's  cute cuddly 'Chibi AT-AT' submission

Phil Memmer's teensy 'Chibi (Millennium) Falcon':







Ted Andes' Chibi A-wing

January Began's 'Chibi Jango Fett's Slave 1'


Jake's 'Chibi Shadow' submission:




Over at the Brother's Brick website I spotted those rare birds that are garnering their 15 minutes of fame via their trendy phone app 'The Angry Birds'!



Sly Owl posted this holiday treat! An Homage to Dickens' 'A Christmas Carol' with all of the novel/films best scenes (and ghosts) built all into one creatively cool playset. Feast your eyes on the feast at Bob Cratchit's home. Marvel at the bedroom spook scene! Be terrified at the graveyard scene! Bah Humbug!





Flickr friend, Profound Whatever, posted this super-realistic 'Ghostbusters' ghost trap. Who ya gonna call? Lego?! Thanks to Mr. Mike D. and the rest who forwarded this gem!



Also from Profound Whatever, is this rickity rockety Rock 'em Sock 'em robots tribute in rock-solid Lego brick! DING-DING-DING!



Found these excellent Pokemon masterpieces over at the daily Buzzfeed.com. love me some 'Growlithe'Which is YOUR favorite?





Ernesto Carrillo has amassed a HUGE display of Lego mini-figures. And beaten me to displaying them in a large unit on his wall. I have dozens and dozens and will be following his lead soon enough!

'Lego Minifigs Series 1 & 2'



A friend of 'Lego Iconic' forwarded me this clip from Buzzfeed.com. 'LEGOs Gone Wild'! It's exactly what you may think!
