Here’s a small gallery of awesome monsters and aliens made entirely in LEGO. This is not your average MOC (My Own Creation) created with bricks and tiles. These artists use the most strange pieces and uncommon colors LEGO has created. Don’t try to do this at home with your kids’ DUPLO sets ;-)!

Before starting with the images, I would like to give credit to the amazing Brick Brothers blog for making this research easier. I suggest you to visit their site to see the latest and most interesting Lego creations available.

Let’s get into our Awesome LEGO Monsters and Aliens Sculptures gallery!

You can purchase these puzzles at many toy stores around the country, but if you feel the urgent need to play one of these now, right now, then you can download these two puzzles I created:

You can learn how to create these two puzzles by reading the “Creating a Colorful Print and Play Puzzle for your kids with Photoshop” tutorial I wrote at The Photoshop Roadmap Blog. Print these two puzzles on a photographic printer for better results. Then paste the paper on a thick cardboard. Carefully cut the triangular pieces following the thin white lines and start playing with your kids.

Since year 2001 Lego has been producing Bionicle action figures, one of its most successful line of toys. If you are not familiar with the storyline, all Bionicles names and sets look similar (they are not, of course), so I decided to create a Bionicle timeline using Lego official commercials and other videos available at YouTube.

To know more about the Bionicle storyline and sets, you can go to the Bionicle Wikipedia Page and use it as a startup page to all things Bionicle (lots of links and info there). If that’s not enough, you can check the excellent BZPower website for more interesting information such as news, sets reviews, discussion forums, commercial promotions, and all kind of fan stuff.

I must admit that it was somewhat difficult to build a complete timeline of all Bionicle sets, so I chose only to provide videos for all heroes, neutral and villains characters canister sets, leaving away all the titans and boxed sets. C’mon, don’t complain, just sit and enjoy the videos!

Year 2001

Year 2002

Year 2003

Year 2004

Year 2005

Year 2006

Year 2007

Year 2008

Well, that was a nice collection of Lego Bionicle videos and commercials. In some cases, such as Bohrok, Bohrok-kal and Rahkshi, it was difficult to find some videos for them, but fortunately at least one was available for each Bionicle character to complete the timeline.
If you want to see higher quality Bionicle videos, you can go to Ghost Studios Bionicle movies archive.
