Midnight tonight (PST) is the end of the BrickNerd Pimp My Nerdly contest. There's still time to get your entry complete. You've got some stiff competition though, there's been a great many amazing entries so far. Get pimpin'!
Yo pimp daddies (sorry, trying to be hip and cool, didn't work did it?) There's only one week left in the BrickNerd "Pimp My Nerdly" contest. The entries so far have just blown us away, so many cool MOCs! Head over to the Flickr group for rules and to enter. Get pimpin'!
Amazon has a few deals going on sets. As you know, sale LEGO is a bit like bigfoot, in that it's rarely seen (but I understand it smells much better).
LEGO Friends
Heartlake Pool is 26% off
LEGO Star Wars
Sith Infiltrator is 24% off
Brandenburg Gate is 36% off
The veil of secrecy has been lifted and I can finally share this news: I'm in the next LEGO Adventure Book!!! As you can tell I'm very excited about this book, and very proud to be a featured builder in it. Megan Rothrock contacted me late last year to ask if I would be involved and I jumped at the chance.
Read MoreChris McVeigh created this MOC for THEYETEE, an awesome online t-shirt company. They're opening a gallery this weekend in Aurora Illinois and invited artists to create Yeti and bigfoot inspired art. If you're in the area drop by and if not, check out their site, they have crazy, nerdy, geeky cool tees.
The Pimp My Nerdly contest is half over, and the entries so far are brilliant. I know there's more in progress but is yours? Get building people!
This was a great surprise to wake up to. Lego Junkie posted the first entry to the Pimp My Nerdly contest, and it's awesome. I knew Nerdly was ready for action, but whoa!
The Iconic and impressive Sydney Opera House is now available from LEGO and retailers.
I'd love to review this for you all, but I'm afraid it's beyond my budget at this time. But if you're going to nab one for yourself consider using this link and supporting BrickNerd.
With FBTB's Star Warsify and Eurobricks Pimp contests both going simultaneously, this is going to be an epic month of mini VW's. They're already showing up and we're barely getting started. Being a big fan of the van, I couldn't be happier.
Yay! Only one month to one of my favorite times of the year and one of my favorite events, BrickCon in Seattle WA. I've got my registration done, my flight booked, my room reserved and my MOCs...oh crap...
I'm also very pleased to announce that BrickNerd is an official sponsor of BrickCon. So get ready for some nerd swag!
My good buddies over at FBTB are running a cool contest (as opposed to mine). They would like you to turn the new mini VW camper into a Star Wars vehicle. Head over there and get all the details.
Hey fellow LEGO nerds, it's contest time! We want to see how you interpret or trick out Nerdly. Your creativity is the only limit in this contest. Lino Martins sparked this with his hot rod Nerdly, but how about a Star Wars Nerdly, or a Mickey Mouse Nerdly, or a Neo Classic Space Nerdly, or super hero Nerdly? (I think you see where we're going with this) Get your bricks out and enter by September 30th!
To download instructions for Nerdly visit this link. But you don't have to follow them, get as creative as you want.
Visit the official Flickr group for rules and more info.
There's a new LUG in town! If you, like me, are convinced you're the only one around who "likes to play with LEGO" you may be surprised to find out there are more of you out there. And now you have a LUG to bring you all together. Introducing GAULUG, The Gauteng LEGO User Group. You can find out more info on their website here.
The Ghostbusters 30th Anniversary project has Achieved 10K supporters and is now in review by LEGO. Fingers crossed Ghostbusters fans, this is a very cool idea. I want a Luis Tully figure though.
I won't be there, but if you're in the bay area come check out the MOCs and LEGO nerds at Bricks By The Bay. The exhibition is Sunday, Aug 11 from 10am-4pm at the Hyatt Regency Santa Clara.
BrickNerd is way too new and small to be even a faint blip on LEGO's PR radar, so I get my news like you guys, from the internets. I saw several posts about LEGO announcing that The Simpsons would be coming in 2014. But I've seen no official image, no official news release excerpt and no page on lego.com. It all seems like either rumor or leak. Either way, LEGO is quiet.
There has been images floating around for weeks, but it's finally official. LEGO has announced series 11 of their wildly popular collectible Minifigures line. My personal favorite is the Island Warrior, but the Welder is a close second. Now if I could actually get them locally...

BrickFair is go!
The AFOLs have gathered and setup is in the works. If you're going to be in the Chantilly VA area this weekend swing by the Dulles Expo Center and check out some amazing LEGO creations by very talented builders.
