LEGO CUUSOO Land Rover Defender 110 Achieves 10000 Supporters

February 28, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

The Land Rover Defender 110 by Sheepo is the latest project to hit 10000 supporters on LEGO CUUSOO. It now qualifies to be included in the Spring Review joining the Exo Suit, the Andy/Bugdroid the Android, and the Legend of Zelda. The Defender 110 was listed on CUUSOO on May 14, 2012 but that shows persistence does pay off in the end.

The deadline for the project to reach the required number of supporters to make it to the review stage would’ve been March 4th but it got some extra support from Land Rover USA and their social media team. I sent a tweet to them to see if they could do something to rally some support and they happily obliged by sending a tweet about the project to their 85k+ followers. They went even further to post to their Facebook Page as well to gather support from their fans. In terms of social media, Land Rover was a really good sport to help out.

The Batmobile Tumbler Minifig Scale build by BrentWaller now becomes the most supported project on CUUSOO. Congratulations to Sheepo for this achievement! See below for the official comments:

Congratulations on 10,000 Supporters, Sheepo!

Congratulations on achieving 10,000 supporters. We now officially advance this project to the Review phase.

LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 10 Revealed

February 27, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

Brickset has posted an image of the new LEGO Series 10 Collectible Minifigures. Argos has them listed at £1.99 and they will be released in May. We’ve known the list of these minifigures for a while now but it’s nice to have a clear view of what they look like. Series 10 will also be the one with the Golden Minifigure inserted randomly in the boxes. There will only be 5000 of the special minifig in the world. My impressions of him is that he looks nice and will be easily feel-able in the packages but it’ll be extremely hard to find one of these guys.

LEGO Hogwarts Castle by Alice Finch

February 26, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

There are regular LEGO Hogwarts Castle sets produced by LEGO and there’s Alice Finch’s version of the iconic castle from the Harry Potter series. Her 400,000 brick build of the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft & Wizardry won both “Best in Show” as well as “People’s Choice” as BrickCon 2012. She was recently interviewed by The Brothers Brick, which I highly recommend reading, where the massive structure was officially unveiled on her Flickr page. As a big Harry Potter fan having read the books and seen the movies, the sheer amount of bricks and the time it took to build it is unfathomable and to get all the small, intricate details within Hogwarts is just pure awesomeness. Although I’ll never be creating something so spectacular, I can at least enjoy looking at the pictures and immerse myself in the world of Harry Potter.

LEGO Knight Rider K.I.T.T. by Orion Pax

February 25, 2013 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran / 0 Comments

A few days ago, we featured the Ghostbusters HQ by Alex Jones, aka Orion Pax, and now he is back with another project that draws us back to the 80’s, K.I.T.T. from the Knight Rider tv series. Orion even manages to fit a 2×3 red light brick to simulate the red scanner in front the 7-stud wide car. Now I want one of these too.
