Little Coloured Bricks

There is no getting over Lego mechs today, and that is for sure! Mechs are very impressive fictional vehicles and battle suits, and what makes them more fascinating is that people in the Lego community are making some of the best 3D creations of mechs using pieces from other Lego sets! Amazing!

This mech by Fredoichi from Flickr will really make you wonder how seemingly small Lego bricks are combined to make such a beautiful piece of work. Like something straight out of the pages of a manga, this mech, the FHF S07 “Ujio” looks as sinister as can be in black and grey. If looks could kill, then this would be a total massacre.

This quadruped, although slightly similar in color Transformers’ Bumblebee is an original work on its own. The brainchild of someone who is very familiar to creating mechs out of Lego pieces. Bermudafreze of flickr isn’t new to the art. He is actually quite famous in this genre of Lego building. And this four-legged mech right here is a testament to the kind of detail he is used to put into his mechs.

Although quite simple than the first two, mondayn00dle’s Hawkeye Hardsuit still packs weight. The strategic use of small parts really gives this hardsuit a good amount of detail -especially the contrast of the neon green bits under the black ones.

Perhaps this one is the more radically-designed among them all. This exo-suit, though may arguably belong to a separate genre than the mech, is not something you just pass over in a review. Peter Reid, aptly nicknamed legoloverman, is a legend. In this piece, you can see all of the great use of parts. The hands are constructed very differently than most mechs makes this exo-suit a great thing to look at. And notice that welding/plasma arm propped from the back -great contrast to the exo-suit!
