Elven archer

The latest Iron build between 6kyubi6 and Onosendai2600 rages on, and one of my favorite entries so far is this elf archer by 6kyubi6. Unfortunately, sharing is restricted on the photo, so y'all are going to have to make "the jump" if you want to see this awesome creation. There is lots of NPU going on on it, my favorite is the snowshoe for the armguard. Click here to see it!

Sun Salamander, aka Extreme NPU

Sure, our last post was a dragon, but I think it'd be a crime to overlook this one. The brilliant husband/wife team of Sean and Steph Mayo recently took part in yet another round of the Iron Builder, where two participants (or pairs of) battle against each other using their MOCing skills as their weapons, having to use a certain piece in each build. My favourite entry from Sean and Steph was, without a doubt, this dragon, which is probably the best I've ever seen. The parts usage here is phenomenal. I mean, who else would have thought to use lifejackets for the neck of a dragon? Unbelievable! Another thing I love is the mix of lime green and chrome parts, which looks amazing. Heck, it's all amazing.

Toa Korpraun

While Bionicle was still around, I was an avid fan. I'm very glad to see there are lots of fans still around keeping the theme alive since its being cancelled in 2010, and Pate-Keetongu is a pillar of the movement. He brings us yet another awesome-looking Toa ( Elite elemental warrior for non-Bionicle geeks), decked out in awesome banners and bristling with spears. Read more about this awesome dude on his blog

We apologise...

...for NEVER posting anymore (well, except Ian)! I, for one, am extremely busy revising for my 26 GCSE exams, which started today, and I know that Ignacio is also working hard. Ian is...just being Ian! Seriously, we'll all try to blog more of the awesome creations we see every day, but we can't promise anything. Bear with us, and thanks for the support.

Double Danger

Ráðvilltur Skrímsli

Mark Erickson has always been excellent at building dragons. Look at Raovilltur Skrimsli, which is in fact only his 3rd. A great follow-up to his Cyricus the Mighty, this 2-headed beast, which will be appearing in his and his brother's 2nd volume of their series The Anselm Saga, somehow draws me in and intimidates me with its realistic and organic feel.

Fresh Ideas from the New Iron Builder Competition

The brawl is on! In the new edition of the Iron Builder competition, we find Legohaulic and Littlehaulic competing against the veteran competitors Sean and Steph Mayo! The challenge is to build as many MOCs as possible in a month as long as you always employ the mystery piece, which is the 1x2 yellow curved slope this month! So far the builds have been great but this one has blown my boots off! Custer's hat is truly   fanstastic! Well done Legohaulic!

On behalf of the TBT team, we're sorry for the lack of activity there has been, mostly due since Flickr cut off ties with Blogger on March 25th so it's hard to blog MOCs. We're doing are best and are trying to resume our day to day blogging.
