“Un Homme et Sa Voiture” (“A Man and His Machine”) is a LEGO stop-motion animation film made by junior LUG member, Ben. Follow the adventures of Phillipe as he finds Bernard, the lost cat, and uses the reward money to purchase and fix up a car named Beatrice. Watch Phillipe, in his Luke Skywalker costume, and Beatrice enter a race against the mysterious driver in black and his evil boss. There’s even an air raid scene with views from the cockpit of the LEGO Sopwith Camel.

The KC BrickLab Union Station LEGO Train table is going Western! We have been working on the landscape design for our new Western-themed LEGO Train table for a little over a month, and the bricks are stacking up for a great looking table. This is the largest design/build our group has undertaken. The display will include two LEGO mountains.  One will have a waterfall that flows into a river that crosses over the width of the table. The steam engine model train will come out of the mountain tunnel, pass by an Indian village and then cross over the river basin on a trestle. Next on the train’s journey around the wild west is Fort Legoredo and a western town. We still need some help building things. Check out more photos on our group Flickr page. There is a sign-up list our Facebook group! Not on Facebook? Contact us at contact@kcbricklab.org




Congratulations to Garrhet, our winner of the LEGO Star Wars B-Wing from the Home Show! Garrhet's Father entered him in the drawing, and brought him to Union Station so we could present him with his prize at our Train Display! It was a complete surprise!


Congratulations Garrhet!

If you didn't get a chance to visit us at the Kansas City 2013 Home Show check out the great pictures of the event. It was the first event of the year for the KC Brick Lab and we came ready to play with young and old LEGO fans. Plenty of bricks on hand for the children to show off their building skills and create some great MOC's. When attendees weren't building they were viewing LEGO creations made by members of the KC Brick Lab. Everyone who visited our booth was encouraged to enter our drawing to win the B-Wing Starfighter Set and to scan the QR code made out of LEGO which would take them to our KC Lab webpage."
