LEGO CUUSOO Château d’Arbre Needs Our Support

June 4, 2012 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

A reader by the name of Matthew Copeland has asked me to review his project on LEGO CUUSOO. He has created Château d’Arbre, a castle build with a very unique design and he needs our help for it to reach 10000 supporters. From what I can see, I really like the design of it because of the fantasy/fairy tale theme of the castle. What’s neat about it is that it is a fairly small build but filled with detailing, for example, the balcony, turrets, and the patched roof tiles. Below is the description of the Château d’Arbre from Matthew and don’t forget to support and comment on his project on LEGO CUUSOO.

The Tennis Ace is one of the more simple minifigures in Series 7. He has a white outfit and also a white bandana that only covers the front part of the face. He has a single sided face with an angry, determined expression. The spiky, blonde hair makes him stand out. His accessory includes a blue tennis racket. To feel for this minifig, the racket is a dead giveaway.

LEGO Collectible Minifigures Series 7 – Daredevil

May 25, 2012 / Allen "Tormentalous" Tran

The Daredevil, like the Jungle Boy is another equivalent of another famous person, Evel Knievel. His primary colors are red, white, and blue. He has a white cape and has red colored hands which are his gloves. He also has brown hair which is in the same style as the Mechanic in Series 6. He has a double-sided face, one is a smiling, confident side and the other is a scared, “I’m going to crash” look. For his accessory, he has a white helmet with a star on the top. To look for the Daredevil, just feel for the helmet and the visor.
