Lego and other brick toys

Seeing a spread of aliens like that makes me feel like I've been recruited by the Star League to defend the Frontier against Xur and the Ko-Dan armada.
do i see a SPACE PIMP in there
I’ve actually built a Starfighter before, complete with death plasm, but sadly don’t have one currently. Might have to correct that!
It’s really just the space pimp’s hood ornament, for some reason that was easier to get than another Brick Daddy head.
The idea started as a “what if the Space Police 3 bad guys had good guy counterparts?” kind of thing, with some influence from classic Trek and the Legostar Galactica webcomic. Their ship is one of the SHIPs I’m trying to design and build, haven’t quite come up with an idea I am totally satisfied with, although I think I want to stick with the Futuron color palette, largely white with some black accents and transparent dark blue windscreens. Might have to work a couple Starfighters in now, too...
Two lego pirate videos I've watched, they are pretty good, thou I would say the first one of these two is the best but its the end of the second one that makes it worth posting:
Looks like something from an anime in the 80s
I saw that w/in the last week - it's crazy cool. Probably lots of little hints and nods towards Giant Robot Fandoms.
I've been buying and building a lot of smaller sets lately, and getting back into LEGO after years away from it, but recently had the opportunity to pick up Zane's titan mech at a pretty solid price and it's the biggest set I've ever built.
Knuckled down and did it this afternoon, and it's pretty fantastic. I'm not into Ninjago, but I love a cool giant robot.

The head kind of looks like Prowl from G1
Got in complete set of lego Looney Tunes mini figures, out of all the characters, only one I don't really know as they were pretty much forgotten by the dusts of time and I wish they been replaced by Sam or Elmer as they are more easily recongised, thou I am a little surprised that Lego didn't have them out for Space Jam a new Legacy
Petunia Pig and Lola Bunny don't really fit among the "main cast" from the classic animated shorts (Petunia was only in a tiny handful of cartoons from the late 1930s, Lola is purely a modern character), but I understand their inclusion so it wouldn't be an all-male collection.
That said, as big a fan as I am of both Lego and Looney Tunes, those minifigs just didn't work for me. They all just look like humans wearing masks. I think the Muppets are a more successful minifig series overall.

I thought Marvin the Martian worked okay, and I got a couple of him, but Looney Tunes was not Lego's best example of minifigures capturing their likenesses. The Muppets really do work better.
Also, can I just say, I really miss Lego Dimensions! A Muppet level pack would have ruled that game!

Shockwave as a Lego action master? or maybe the RED version? Either way, it looks cool.
