December 5, 2011Collectible Minifigures Series 6 and 7
October 15, 2011Toys N bricks had publish the first official pictures from the upcoming series of Collectible Mifigures. Like previous collections, these new series presents new historical figures that will delight many LEGO fans.
The 6th series presents a roman warrior. Personally I’ve been waiting for ages for the LEGO roman empire. This figure and the new rounded bricks of the Atlantis sets will make a beautiful combination 
This collection also presents a barbarian warrior, which is nice for the battles against the roman army, and a cowboy that will fit perfectly in any western MOC.
The 7th series presents a Viking warrior (girl?), a cool hippie that will fit nicely 10220 Volkswagen T1 Camper Van and, my favorite, the Aztec warrior (or at least, what I think that it is). The mermaid man will also make a cool Neptune roman god of the sea.
Great Wall of China
August 22, 2011Some days ago I posted an awesome MOC of a miniscale Great Wall of China built by Matija. Today I found the minifig scale of the same historical landmark that was built by Si-MOCs.
His building techniques are rather simple but the overall design of the MOC is very well done. I also point out his short history lesson about the Great Wall that gives some enlightenment about the evolution of these walls and their purposes.
“The Great Wall of China is a series of stone and earthen fortification built over a millennium. Despite popular belief, the wall was not originally constructed to protect against Mongol invaders, but instead built by the various Chinese states to protect their own borders against each other during the Warring State Period in 5th century BC. Most of the original walls was destroyed after Qin conquered all opposing sates and unified the country. The remaining wall was extended into a new northern wall which would protect against the empire against the nomadic Mongols from the north.
The first walls were simple walls made up of rammed earth and stones. By the Ming dynasty in the 16th century more advance techniques were used on the rebuild the walls, bricks, tiles and cut stones.
The MOC depicts the great wall in later age as a young Emperor watches his army march to battle.” – text by Si-MOCs

Al Khazneh
August 12, 2011This is the third post in a row about landmarks, but how would it be possible to left behind this spectacular representation of Al Khazneh, one of the most elaborate buildings in the ancient Jordanian city of Petra?
ArzLan made a wonderful job detailing this mysterious building. His techniques are rather simple but very effective. The cogs used in the stone columns is one of my favorite details. As a bonus ArzLan gives us a glimpse of Indiana and the Last Crusader movie
