This is the ‘LL-2329 Scuttlebug’, and whilst it might look rather adversarial, being a Classic Space thingumy it you can guarantee two things; 1. A perennially-smiling classic spaceman, and 2. Its...

This is the ‘Classic Space Baby Mobile Rocket Transport Mech’, or C.S.B.M.R.T.M. for short, a triple rocket transportation and launch system that can transform into a giant space-baby mech. Because...

OK, we’re not always strictly a car blog here at The Lego… er, Car Blog, but today’s sci-fi creations do have wheels! Well, two of them do, and enough to average 4.67 wheels per model in today’s post,...

If there’s a model that goes ‘Pew Pew!’ more than this one, we haven’t seen it. Making his TLCB debut, Joe (jnj_bricks) hasn’t just encapsulated our default science-fiction noise beautifully in...

This supposedly being a ‘car’ blog, TLCB Staff struggle somewhat when it comes to things without wheels and an engine. Whilst that’s our own fault for not sticking to the brief, we suspect even The...

Ok, we’re know we’re crap at sci-fi, and we posted a round-up of the entirely sci-fi ‘SHIPtember 2023’ build-a-thon a few days ago, but this one was posted in October. So we missed it. It also means...

Oh uh. Sci-fi. Or is it sky-fi? Or dieselpunk? It doesn’t really matter to be honest, as we don’t understand any of them. It also doesn’t matter because this wild looking ‘Sky Viper’ by Flickr’s Greg...

Fresh off the back of another example of our sci-fi incompetence, here’s more space-related overreach from TLCB staff. Built by Nick Trotta of Flickr, this cyberpunky spacecraft is so superbly...

When space travel finally becomes commonplace, we’re pretty sure it won’t be star-fighters or giant space robots occupying the void. No, it’ll be humble utility vehicles, ferrying stuff from somewhere...
