Meanwhile, at the Legion of Doom

Julius No is working on a series on the Legion of Doom, including the different villains and rooms in their headquarters. Some selections:

The Legion.


LoD lunchroom.


Lex Luthor's office.

Meanwhile, back at the hall of justice ...

Finishing up my little foray into Chris Doyle's world is this great version of the Hall of Justice. Form of ... an ice LEGO brick!

New Gothopolis

Here's one that really takes me back. About ten years ago, Tim Saupe, creator of FBTB visited LEGO's North American headquarters. While there he saw a great creation sitting on the desk of Master Builder Erik Varszegi, New Gothopolis. This 48x48 baseplate was packed with buildings from both the Marvel and DC universes, like the Daily Planet building and Dr. Strange's mansion. Of course it was also populated with custom figs, ranging from Two-Face to Galactus and Thor to the Flash. Doors pop open to reveal furnished interiors, and there's even Clark Kent changing to Superman via a revolving door. Follow the link to see all the great details.





A big thanks to Ace Kim, admin over at FBTB, for re-uploading these pictures for me.

Micropolis

The members of TwinLUG, a LEGO Users Group based in the Twin Cities, pioneered the micropolis standard. This set of standards allows different builders to make microscale (that is, much smaller than minifig-scale) units and then fit them all together to make a collaborative city layout, such as this one. Why feature this, you ask? Look closely and you'll see both the Superfriends' Hall of Justice and Fantastic Four's Baxter Building. Universes collide!
