Megablox?
They are okay, but I wouldn't call them MOCs yet. They need to be finetuned. The LEGO® RockBand one is pretty bad, as it is just a collection of ordinary minifigs with briks scattered around. Good effort though, show us more!

I don't do Mega Blox!!!
That baseplate is a Lego part from a Bionicle set.
And how can they not be MOCS? it means My Own Creation!
Thanks for the coments though. Back to the drawing board.

I mean you must keep up the good work, practice makes perfect. They are rather dull compared to some peoples, so keep looking for new ideas and techniques.

I do see what you mean. Specially the Keep and the Pickup Truck, there's nothing clever in there. But I think the V6 Roadster is a bit cooler and a lot more work went in to it.

question to all: would you like seeing plastic instruments compatible with lego? like guitars and stuff?
I've started at the university of twente this year, Industrial design, and me and a friend want to do something with lego.
Im already working on a brickarms style boltgun, but we also wanted something that the pacifists in TLC could produce . . .
any ideas?
- I refuse to be stopped by something as irrelevant as logic, the laws of physics, or common sense -
if 20 chickens can fit in a brick, how many pingpongballs does a crocodile have to eat so it can swim faster than a washing machine?

To be honest if guitars and so on get too realistic it makes it less fun, for me anyway. It's gotta look like lego to interest me.
