You ever run into a LEGO build that just perfectly sums up your day? While my rushing today was entirely computer-oriented (and involved way too much work in Crystal Reports for my own sanity), the character in this creation by greenarj has far more of a physical speed built up. With a brilliantly-blurred background, this character creation is a stellar woman on the go. Triangle tile sunglasses and banana-curled blonde hair highlight her face. Toothy plates, a banana collar, and a minifigure skirt simulate a white blouse under her black jacket. And don’t forget the banana/bucket handle buckle on her bag, which is absolutely astounding! With all the fruit showing up, I have a sneaking suspicion this lightspeed design is for the Mind that Banana contest over on New Elementary.

One of the LEGO themes that came out during my dark age (the period between childhood and adulthood when some fans stopped buying LEGO sets) was Exo-Force, a theme with a human and a robot faction and their battling mechs and vehicles. The designs were a perfect blend of anime and cyberpunk. This mech by Ryuhei Kawai is a fantastic reboot of the theme with plenty of modern mech construction techniques. The larger angled upper legs with the thin black calves give the mech a sporty look, while the machine gun with ammo belt feeding it from the shoulder and the large chainsaw-looking blade on the right hand show that this mech means business.

Sometimes a handfull of the right LEGO elements can make you look at your collection in a whole new light. This “Midnight Mushrooms” vignette from Eli Willsea is just such a build, invoking a whole matgical world on a base just 8 studs in diameter.  The bulbous tree tops are made from Zamor Spheres, bygone Bioncle ammo, while the mushroom caps come from the Clikits jewelry line from the early 2000s. At ground level, the smiling salamander is a Friends recolor of Elsa’s magical pet and provides the perfect contrast to the cool blues. It’s a fantastic mix of unusual parts.
