Highly Impressive 'Crawler Town' LEGO Build

This is 'Crawler Town', a rolling LEGO city built by Flickr user and skilled LEGOlier Dave DeGobbi. And, like Rome, it wasn't built in a day. OR SO THE HISTORY BOOKS SAY. They also don't mention alien subcontractors, but I have my doubts.

Crawler town roams the barren wastes of a post steam-punk world after cataclysmic climate change do to excessive coal use. Several such cities exist but Crawler town is the most popular due to the Aero 500 hydrogen fuel cell Air races that are held. Many people travel the wastes to Crawler town for vacation and to enjoy rare luxuries like Pizza, fresh vegetables and Beer. Travelling the wastes in search of minerals and aquifers ( vital for survival) the mobility of the city keeps it away from the vicious sand storms of the wastes

Good looking, Dave. Reminds me of the opposite of Water World. What would we call that, Land World? Mad Maxtopia? I dunno, but I do know the 2Pac video for 'California Love' is the shit. "As soon as I step on the scene, I'm hearin' hoochies screamin'." Oh yeah, I can relate. Wait -- are you bitches calling the cops?!

I posted a couple more shots after the jump, but you should definitely hit David's Flickr gallery (with more shots coming soon) to appreciate the build in high-res.

    Skilled LEGO builder Sheepo went and made a Bugatti Veyron out of LEGO Technic pieces. And it's radio controlled. And it does things my real car can't even do. Like not sit on cinderblocks. You're gonna need to hit the jump and watch the video to fully appreciate Sheepo's w... / Continue →

    This is a short video entitled 8-Bit Trip that is a tribute to 8-bit video games made entirely out of LEGO blocks. Personally, I would have gone with a 16-Bit Trip, but I like good visuals (one time I saw the face of Loki from Super Ghouls n' Ghosts come out of a brick wall an... / Continue →

    NOTE: I embedded the video in high quality so it may take a minute to load. This is a little movie made using nothing by LEGO Mindstorm NXT sets and LEGO blocks. It is amazing. Plus, it's about pirates, so double whammy. The movie is only 2:20 long, and the rest of the vide... / Continue →
