SlyOwl If it wasn't for several older parts this would almost be believable set. I love "The Trashster" and the flower power cannon is pretty cool too. :-D (Nice use of the helicopter skis.)

Well, I guess you're referring to the old-style cannon, the Octan logos, the blue Explorien cylinders, the use of Dark Grey instead of Bley and some of the older parts in the litter (like the older version of the bevel)...but when you consider that I've obtained just 5 current sets within the past 5 years (3x Crossbow Attack, Skeleton Prison Carriage, Viking Warrior challenges the Fenris Wolf) and not a single Town/City set since 1997, you get the picture :-$ , you get the picture - I couldn't have gone modern even if I'd wanted to. Anyhow, I prefer most of the older sets, but that's another story... >:-)

As for believable, I would have gone with 1x6x5 bricks to make up the walls of the tower, but I don't have any in grey :'-( , although I think TLC would do it, hence the SB sets...

My votes remain hidden for the time being... *pirate*

[Piranha]

Piranha You seem to have taken my angle; when in doubt make something you wanted to make anyway! :-D Hinckley looks odd (as opposed to queer) in blue. 8-|

Thanks Sinner! The next contest should be called the "Build whatever you want" contest :-P

That's not Hinckley, I said there is no relation to him at all ;-)

I had a hard time defining the meaning of Block Block

Was it a future theme? Did vehicles exist?What weapons should they use?

Know I now how a real Lego Designer feels when creating a new original theme :-)

Great Entires everyone!

Thanks to Hinckley for making such a lame amazingly fun contest! :-D

I think Block Block works well for a theme name, no reason why

Thanks to everyone who voted for my entry! You guys rock! :-)

[Oky]

*sweet* Thanks to all who voted for my entry and/or its theme name too! *y* You guys rock even harder! :-P

Congrats to everybody, there are some good entries out there! But my vote (as many others apparently) goes to "Lord Trash's Factory"! It really looks like something TLC would produce, with all those <insert that tiresome argument> parts, stickers, vehicles, and consistent color scheme (which btw was a very nice interpretation/adaption from the theme logo!). Even the small prison cabin looks like it was designed by LEGO designers through its obviously simple design - it looks cheesy in a good way, you know? ;-) It reminds me of the "escape pod" from the first Millenium Falcon! :-D Very interesting background story too; it even makes kinda sense... in a silly way. X-D Good Job, Graynar!

But my vote for best theme name goes to Hinckley's "Random Unnecessaries" as it exactly says what Block-Block is! X-D

I am currently working on some Block-Block EU stuff, so look for it in the next couple of weeks! ;-)

[LuxorV]

This was a very funny and, vell, strange contest *y* .

Compliments to all the entries, and congrats to the top vote-getters ;-) .

Now, I think all we need to conclude this (I'm not stealing your work, Hinckley :-$ ) is a Block Block Eulogy by our proud Batbrick :-P !
