Blog der Steine ​​- Das ultimative Newsblog zu allen LEGO Themen

You already know that I like Steine ​​Imperium, the German forum which brings together the German-speaking community and of which Bane is one of the moderators. There are many MOCs, new information (it's not just Eurobricks in life) and even if Google Translate does its job with a lot of approximation, we manage to navigate with a little patience .

The forum now has its blog: Blog of Steine, also in German, which publishes the most interesting news on the LEGO world. It will be necessary to follow it to be sure not to miss anything of the news LEGO, the Germans accustomed us to offer us some exclusives well before the English-speaking sources. Bookmark this blog for me and take a look from time to time, you never know ...

Tumbler v2 by _Tiler

_Tiler has some continuation in the ideas and he continued to improve his Tumbler freely inspired by that of ZetoVince.

This new version is presented here in a staging that is teeming with details. Too bad the photo is so limited in size, it does not allow us to fully enjoy this excellent presentation.

Also, I make a call to _Tiler, I know it reads me, to finally provide us with some instructions to reproduce this excellent Tumbler: Calin, if you read this, please provide some instructions so all of us can reproduce this excellent Tumbler ...

Corellian YT - Unclassified by Phall Macaroni

We remain in free interpretations from machines from the Star Wars universe with this shuttle which looks from a distance to the Millennium Falcon and which up close turns out to be a Corellian type shuttle largely modified. The cockpit passes into the central area, but the overall shape remains well in the spirit of the YT-1300 type cargo vessels.

The choice of colors is wise, I love those pops of blue, and the SNOT finish gives a well finished look. Phall Macaroni explains the craft can be handled without the risk of seeing it fall apart thanks to a set of Technic bricks inserted between the two sides of the ship to give it rigidity and make everything together.

To see more, visit Phall Macaroni's flickr gallery which is also on stage with its MOC.

6865 Captain America's Avenging Cycle

And it's still a hit ... Artifex, the king of simple and effective video reviews comes back to us with a first set from the LEGO Super Heroes Marvel range: 6865 Captain America's Avenging Cycle.

It speaks for itself, it's always done well. Minifigs in detail, front, back and side, assembly of the elements of the set in ultra-fluid stop motion, in short, no more excuses for not having seen everything on this set and having an uncontrollable desire to buy it. .

While you're at it and if you haven't already, go read the Artifex interview on Hoth Bricks to better understand the quintessence of his work ...
