Halloween House on LEGO Ideas I am very excited to present this Halloween house. Although it is large, I tried to control the volume of pieces. There are 2700 pieces and the interior is fully decorated. I wanted architecture in the tradition of large Victorian houses, those that Stephen King describes so well in his novels. The house is run down and done and I wanted to keep it looking realistic and a little dirty. Dimensions Height = 15.0" (38 cm) Lengh : 21.0" (53 cm) Width : 11.6" (29.4 cm)

This is a mashup MOD of sets 70420 - Graveyard Mystery, 76428 - Hagrid's Hut An Unexpected Visit, and 75965 - The Rise of Voldemort. This mashup has been combined into one cohesive cemetery with accompanying groundskeepers hut. The hut is only connected to the graveyard by four studs, and as such is removable from the rest of the MOC for transport. The resulting two sections are solid enough to be be carried in one hand each... though not for long distances! (I'm not brave enough for that!) The back of the model. The statue holding the scythe was taken from 79104 - Dol Guldur Battle - to replace the unprinted one from the Voldemort set. The other statue is a Weeping Angel from set 21304 - Doctor Who. (Don't blink!) I wonder what this key opens? and why was this poor soul buried with it? I... wait a second. Did that statue MOVE? Inside the hut I added an old TV inspired by the one from 43217 - UP house and removed Hagrid's huge chair. I also modified the roof connection points by removing the studded 1x3 jumpers, as this allows the hut roof to just sit up top unconnected and be more easily detachable. Update 10/12/24: This hearse is styled after the 1920s-vintage truck in set 10222 - Winter Village Post Office. I recolored it, extended the bed, and added opening doors to the rear. The model seats a driver in the front, and a coffin can be placed in the back. The hearse should be built in real bricks by the end of the month. ....and that's all I got. Comments, suggestions, and questions welcome! -

The Witchfinder: A Monster Fighters MOC
Mr Maniac posted a topic in LEGO Action and Adventure Themes
It's been a while since I've posted anything around these parts, but with Halloween fast approaching in the States, I thought I should take advantage of the season to post up another Monster Fighters MOC! Back in 2020, I had posted a little grove for some of the CMF witches LEGO's been putting out over the years. Overall it's a nice addition with the rest of the official Monster Fighters sets (which get a workout every time this year), although I hadn't quite nailed down a good-looking vehicle for the monster slayers two years ago, as you can see below: So after posting that, I got some good feedback, and took another swing at it in December of that year. Needless to say I finally got around to photographing it this summer, so without further ado, allow me to present... The Witchfinder! As you can see, I tried to make this match the approximate design of some of the other vehicles belonging to the Monster Fighters, with the trans-black windscreen, dark-bluish grey machine components and of course the dominant non-primary color scheme. I also made sure this truck looked like something that could clear away the thickest underbrush in the most haunted forest, hence all the spikes and saw bits on the front, in addition to the floodlights on top of the cab: As for the water turret in the rear, that can rotate a full 360 degrees and there is enough of a gap for the gunner to see where they're aiming, as Ann Lee can demonstrate: I also wanted to make sure there was enough clearance for a minifigure to operate the water cannon machinery in the rear, which also helps cover up the gear box part. And if the two Monster Fighters need to get out of their truck to finish the job, all they have to do is pull out the crate... And pop off the top! Then you can slot it right back into its original spot! Lastly, the cab roof does pop off, so you can throw in any other minifigure your heart desires (although Rodney Rathbone may need a different seat)! So there you have it! One gnarly monster-slaying truck to accompany the secluded wooded grove where all the witches gather. Overall I'm pretty happy with how it came together. Sure, the truck probably looks more contemporary than some of the other vehicles from that line, but seeing how The Zombies has a truck which looks pretty 20th Century, along with the hot rod in Vampyre Castle, I like to think this fits in rather well with the rest of the vehicles in their garage! More photos here in my Bricksafe folder if you want to take a glance. Otherwise, may your cauldrons always be bubbling! -
For my entry into the Eurobricks Create a Theme Contest , I've decided to create a new theme centered around cryptozoology, entitled Cryptid Hunters. This theme features a team of super-secret agents, scientists, and researchers sent out on missions to find, document, and analyze various legendary cryptids! The team has to avoid the dangers of the cryptozoology world while documenting the sightings and interviewing witnesses. This theme would function as a spiritual successor to Monster Fighters and Hidden Side; two beloved spooky themes from TLG. I've outlined two sets from the theme below, both built digitally using Bricklink's Studio: Flatwoods Monster: Encounter in the Forest [78 pieces, 3 minifigures, $10 USD] The legendary Flatwoods Monster has been spotted in the forest! Enter the forest, investigate the crashed meteor, and attempt to document the elusive monster. Includes tree, crashed meteor with a crystal inside, and a light brick! Includes three minifigures: Secret Agent, Scientist, and the Flatwoods Monster! Mothman: Encounter at the Old Lighthouse [913 pieces, 4 minifigures, $100 USD] Mothman has been drawn to the light at the old lighthouse! Hurry to the lighthouse using the stealthy speedboat, draw Mothman away using the searchlight, and save the lighthouse keeper! Includes speedboat, old dinghy, and lighthouse with detailed interior and working light! Includes 4 minifigures: 2 secret agents, lighthouse keeper, and Mothman! [Author's note: the lighthouse would work similarly to the one seen in set 5770, even using the same mirrored sticker] In theory, this theme would also feature 3 other sets: a small set with the Loveland Frog in a swamp, a medium set with Bigfoot and a log cabin, and a medium-large set with the Loch Ness Monster. I would absolutely love to see a theme like this from TLG one day; I feel like it would work well and be in line with their previous spooky themes. Thank you for checking out my contest entry, I hope you all enjoy it!

I really like the designs for the Bionicle sets we're getting this summer, so this here is a MOC built in the same sort of style. It was fun figuring out the ribcage detail, and also working with lots of transparent parts. If enough people ask, I may just make a how-to on how to build this guy! EDIT: Instructions here!
