Last weekend was Newcastle Brickfest. I went to the first one in 2014, and pictures can be seen
here. This was at the same location, but had been spread over two days, with ticketed entrance times and a resulting decrease in crowd crush. There was a variety of Lego on display, as well as a few members of the
501st Legion, Southern Cross Garrison.

There were some cool
X-Files vignettes:
Star Wars was again popular:
I really liked these
Alice in Wonderland vignettes:
The Lego Group doesn't make military themed bits, but there are after-market weapons and helmets available to make dioramas like this one, or the war memorial in the town above:
It's a fun day, and proceeds go to a good cause. Yay, Lego!

There is something that I still find hugely appealing about Lego, loved the X-Files vignettes.
ReplyDeleteIt's a great toy. There was a lot of hidden detail in the X-Files scenes.
DeleteDid one of these out here a few years back - they're fun!
ReplyDeleteAs an exhibitor? Very cool!
DeleteI'm with you: Space Lego has always been the best!
ReplyDeleteBut that Alice in Wonderland Lego... that's now a close contender.
SPACESHIP!!!
