Brick Days 2023 - Day 2

Can't be in Nebraska and not have the state capitol in Lego.

There were lots of people.
 


A glowing ore freighter.

More supervisors and ONE worker😉

Another view of the Mecha Godzilla vs Transformers from Ready Player One.

Can't be Nebraska without farm equipment.



Here is the Indiana Jones Collection












Some Racing


Finally some pictures from last night. This is the aquarium.  The creator used a black light to find which bricks they had that would fluorescence.  This just added to the effect.

This is my Planetary Space Base.



That is all for now.  Will do a final write up once I get back.

Brick Days 2023 - Day 1

 

It was a great opening day.  Large crowd, lots of questions and very big eyes on the children.  Everyone had a good time.  This update will be simple, lots of pictures.

 

Thought this was interesting use of color.

A junk yard, maybe.

The Star Trek maintenance yard

A look down main street.


A civil war some where, with Mecca Godzilla vs the Transformer.

A row of houses.

Every year the have a build'm and race'm for the kids.  In the background you can see a table white Lego with wheels.  Build your car and then race it on the track.

Van Halen did a concert today.

Another row of houses.

Harry Potter in the house.

More Potterville.

Not sure what this was.

Micropolis

Interesting use of colors and surroundings.

While this is called Brick Days in Omaha, the convention is actually in Council Bluffs Iowa.  Thus the Iowa state capitol.

A look down the main line.

These next three model an aquarium.  The creator won one the best in show awards. These pictures do not do it justice. It was stunning and at night it glowed.



Let's see, two workers and three supervisors drinking coffee.  All that is missing is the doughnuts, maybe next time.

Is it a mosaic of the Animaniacs......................

or is it a mosaic of Pinky and the Brain?  You tell me!

Retired Lego Themes.

Is this picture even legal and how much trouble can I get into for showing Area 51.

More tomorrow.
