LEGO Semi Truck Has Some Neat Features

Flickr user Jason son has some neat car and truck models, all made from LEGO. His latest is the Scania 142 semi tractor trailer truck. For starters, this model looks great! I love how he managed to get a smooth texture on the outside of the truck with no studs on top (SNOT). You can also see how the cab tilts forward to show the engine and drivetrain underneath. There are also some compartments on the side that open up to reveal some extra chains for tying down loads or pulling other trucks out of the ditch. Overall this is a great example of what kind of vehicles can be made out of LEGO.

Superman on the TV!

This really is a cool concept! Flickr user 2 Much Caffeine posted this model on his photostream today. It's a television set with a superman minifig on top of it. The background on the TV scrolls so it looks like Superman is flying. Very neat idea, and great execution!

Be sure to check out the video of it in action!
