Sep 24 2008Wicked LEGO Star Wars Diorama
Flickr user roguebantha_1138 made this wicked LEGO Star Wars diarrhea.
Welcome to Mustaneer! (it's not as distant as Mustafar) Basically it's a Rebel attack on an Imperial base and mining installation. About a year in the making, on and off, it is 75 by 125cm and all built in 1:200 scale. I've taken LOADS of pictures (OK, I've taken too many) but I've tried to write something interesting with each, so if you have a bit of spare time join me on a journey to a galaxy far far away....
Hey, I've got some spare time AND I love journeys. Great selection, got my last pair of kicks there.
Hit it for a few more and a link to the massive gallery.

Thanks to Aileen, who knows that LEGO blocks are an important part of a well balanced breakfast.

I'm not sure why, but I want to dress up in a Godzilla costume and smash the shit out of it.

Oh, man...I was at the toy store looking for Munny figures and I passed by the Lego aisle, I didn't budge for maybe half an hour staring at the different sets. When in sam hill did they get to be so expensive?! I just wanna make lego dinosaurs again...
7. Amy - September 24, 2008 11:50 AM
Oh, and #5, you are so utterly, completely and irrefutably awesome.

@poop, (hehehe)
That's not a job, it's a misspent virginity.
14. YAY! - September 24, 2008 12:22 PM
You are slow again, get on the game geekologie!
15. Daisy - September 24, 2008 12:30 PM
Fake!
That's so totally a photoshop job. Look at the shadows, they are all wrong.
This looks like its copied right out of the movie "Primer" or possibly "Never Back Down" I always get the 2 mixed up.
16. Tdizzle - September 24, 2008 12:33 PM
@15:
i don't know man... photoshop? for real? the shadows look pretty good to me. it looks like he used ceiling lights and flash lights at some point...
BUT THIS BAD ASS!!!

#16 must be new to this blog........

This dude is totally without woman. Maybe he dates the Palm sisters? I dunno.
19. TW?TCH! - September 24, 2008 1:19 PM
IT'S A TRAP!
20. commentzor - September 24, 2008 1:25 PM
@5: I feel the same way about Japan, sometimes. Starting on lego models would probably get me less shot and killed however.
Fantastic idea, thanks!

#5: Never go to the Shanghai Urban Planning building. They have the entire city scaled down (some pics were posted on this site a few weeks ago, I think). The fact that the Japanese brutally invaded China 60 years ago only makes the Godzilla urge stronger.
22. DigitalT - September 24, 2008 1:42 PM
I've never had more than 20 legos of the same color so anything I built was all multicolored. And by all means not even cool.
Nonetheless this is pretty cool.
23. Miles - September 24, 2008 1:59 PM
Very impressive.
@16- You'll see that a lot.
24. DrNecropolis - September 24, 2008 2:01 PM
Photoshopped? That's crazy, clearly its a chupacabra. Let's get with the programme people, seriously
25. The Guy - September 24, 2008 2:38 PM
Wow. I really hope this guy got his parents permission to put pictures of their basement on the internets.
Oh and #15 i just lold at work hah. Thanks for that! nice.
26. Qwailo - September 24, 2008 2:49 PM
My girl just caught me knocking one out to these pics. Im in serious trouble.
27. Joe Cat - September 24, 2008 3:18 PM
That makes the nights a lot less lonely.

I hope that was intentional.

"LEGO Star Wars diarrhea"
Having a little trouble with the spell check today, Geekologie Writer?
33. LSDiesel - September 25, 2008 11:54 AM
That is the MOST impressive diarrhea I have ever seen.
I once took a pretty impressive shit, but I think mine lacked the detail that is clearly apparent in these pictures.
Guess I need to eat some more P.F. Changs
34. Brian - September 25, 2008 6:02 PM
@30: Me too. The first thing I thought was "did he just say 'diarrhea?" I'm pretty sure that's not a word you spell correctly by accident. Also, my inner monologue sounds JUST like Chris Griffen.
