Celebrate your summer and fire up the barbecue with this LEGO Mini Grill by Briques au dépôt. This highly detailed mini build has everything you need for your cookout. There is a lot on the menu including hot dogs, watermelon, pizza, fish, and two different beverages! Lookout because the flames are rising high! My favorite part is the dog looking on from the bottom. Even though he has his bone right next to him, he is still hoping for a bite of freshly cooked meat. Sounds like a couple of dogs that I know.

The grill cleans up really great! I like how special attention is paid to both sides of the grill with different areas for cooking.

The top of the grill even closes for compact storage. Monitor your heat and cooking temperature with the dials and gauges on the top and front.

From the top, you can see the cooking area even better! With so many delicious foods to choose from, I wish I could be a part of this BBQ!

Explore a damp and gloomy wetland in this LEGO Pirate’s Swamp Shack by capitainebricks. Inspired by Tia Dalma’s shack from Pirates of the Caribbean, this build features three houses connected by brittle footbridges in wood and bones. Immediately you notice the curator of the grounds with her parrot companion. Look closer and you see a skeleton pirate on the landing of the shack to the left. A spider awaits on the roof.

At this eyelevel view, I really like how you can see through the front buildings, showcasing the airiness of the shacks.

A monkey, skeleton heads, and bones are seen in this side view. The beauty of the flowers and foliage in the water below, stand in stark contrast to the spookiness above.

Notice the precarious bridge made of wood and bone! Torches and a parrot are present to guide the way across.

A dense swamp is present until the main shack in this rear view. Palm trees grow along the sides. It is great to see the palm tree on the left from the old school LEGO Pirates sets.

A very well constructed LEGO Pirate’s Swamp Shack MOC! Don’t forget to check out our other featured MOCs! Let us know what you think about this great build in the comments below!

Explore a planet’s surface and discover rare elements with this LEGO Space Mine diorama by Noppi. Space is one of my favorite themes and has been around since 1964! This planet’s surface is rich with materials and a mining operation is in full swing. The incredible detail shows the full lifecycle of the mining process. The scale of the mine is really massive, and I like how it is set to minifigure scale.

An incredible shot of a mining vehicle’s hanger. Check out the smoke coming out of the industrial pipes.

I picture this vehicle scouting the planet’s surface, and illuminating the area to quickly spot rare elements. The building behind it part of the rock formation, which makes great use of the terrain.

A rear view truly shows the massive scale of this model, compared to the vehicles and spaceships. Be sure not to miss the bones of some space creature in the foreground.

Furthermore, if you are a fan of this build, you won’t want to miss these other posts:

Fans of the Halo video games will recognize this build of LEGO Master Chief by The Orange Brick, based on the upcoming Halo Infinite game. At about a 1:7 scale, you can finish the fight with Master Chief by your side, or wake him when you need him!

As a fan of Halo for many years, I am very excited to be able to feature this incredible MOC! I have a lot of fond memories playing the original Halo on Xbox with my friends. We used to connect the consoles together with LAN cables!

Check out this amazing shot of the LEGO Master Chief with his iconic Battle Rifle and Needler.

Armed with his weapons, Master Chief is ready for action.

The detail on the Needler is very well done, especially in such a small scale. It is instantly recognizable.

The Battle Rifle even fits on his back, for quickly switching to his secondary weapon!

This LEGO Master Chief build captures the essence of this iconic character quite perfectly. I really like how the figure is posable and captures the action flawlessly. The addition of the Battle Rife and Needler brings back a lot of memories of playing the Halo games!
