Yay! First one to post! w00t! My moc is a Borg Drone form the 1996 movie Star Trek: First Contact :

There! Hope you like! (Images are 316x269 pixels)

Also, in a desperate attempt to not break the rules, I shall quote form the opening article on the borg from Wikipedia:  

The Borg are an amalgam of humanoids of many different species that are enhanced with implanted cybernetics, giving them improved mental and physical abilities, called drones. The name Borg is short for cyborg (cybernetic organism). The Borg function as automata; the minds of all Borg drones are connected via implants and networks to a hive mind, the Borg Collective, personified by the Borg Queen and controlled from a central hub, Unimatrix One. The Borg claim to only seek to "improve the quality of life for all species" by integrating organic and sinthetic components in their quest for perfection. To this end, they travel the galaxy, increasing their numbers and advancing by 'assimilating" other species and their technologies, and subjugating captured individuals by injecting them with nanoprobes and surgically implanting prostheses, quickly changing their biological anatomy and biochemistry to the Borg standard.




People can't read, People can't spell, but people can bicker about what other people can't  do.

Link-tacular!

And the front.

It is "The man with no name", nicknamed by Tuco as  Blondie, from Sergio Leone's "spaghetti western" "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly". He is "The Good."

Wikipedia wrote:

He is generally portrayed as an outsider, a mercenary or bounty hunter, or even an outlaw. He is characteristically soft-spoken and laconic, speaking only when necessary, with as few words as possible. The character is an often-cited example of an anti-hero.


The poncho is a custom cloth piece, printable fabric, the face decal is waterslide (it rocks!), and the torso and belt decals are Avery printer label paper. The gun and hat are just official Lego, to help tie him in.  He wasn't very interesting straight from the side, so I opted for a 3/4 view. I hope that's okay.

Thanks for the contest!

:edit: I changed the links, it should now follow contest rules.

warrant officer lambert hurriedly passed coolant containers to her partner, and when she turned around,all she saw was death in the form of the dreaded Xenomorph

Wikipedia wrote:

The xenomorph, or alien as they are commonly known, is a member of the fictional extraterrestrial species that is the primary antagonist of the Alien film series and its subsidiary literature and video games. The name is derived from the Greek word for "alien form", and was first spoken by the character Lt. Gorman in the film Aliens as a euphemism to indicate any non-terrestrial life-form. Because the films did not give a specific name, this was adopted by fans as a taxonomic classification for the Alien series' titular monsters. The Alien Quadrilogy DVD identifies the scientific name of the creatures as Internecivus raptus (literally "murderous thief"). The comic books identify it as Linguafoeda acheronsis ("foul-tongued [being] of Acheron").

movies featured in:

alien

aliens

alien 3 - Fig based on this film

alien resurrection

alien vs. predator

first off, the tail is completely posable.

everything besides the lego torso, arm, and pelvis were made by me with sculpey.  the sculpting took 7 hours to get right.  the entire fig was painted a certain shade of black for consistency (cos' it would've looked funky with normal black parts)  i followed he design from alien 3, because the design fluctuates in every film.  anyway, there it is!

What part of Phn'glui mlgw'nafh Cthulhu ry'leh wagn'nagi ftaghn don't you understand?

by Damien on Thu, 06/07/2007 - 01:17

Okay.. apparently people are having a little trouble with things like reading comprehension, so here's a friendly reminder: Read the rules of the contest. Specifically the part about how entries should be posted to this thread (link or forum image) and that those images (whether linked or otherwise) should be NO LARGER than 400 pixels by 600 pixels (height and width, respectively). The rules also state that you can only submit TWO pictures. Links to galleries with more than two pictures, therefore, are subject to disqualification. Just two pictures maximum.

So far, all entries posted are subject to disqualification, so I'd suggest editing your entry posts before the official judges start meandering in to look at your entries, or you risk being disqualified. Wouldn't want to see any potential winners end up in the trash bin because you weren't paying attention. And good luck everyone.

Here is Carl Denham from Peter Jackson's King Kong. He is a tricky, crafty and slimy character portrayed by Jack Black. http://www.brickshelf.com/gallery/nermal/Minifigs/carl_denham.jpg The decal is my own and the hair is just painted wavy hair.

Markl is the wizard Howl’s eight-year-old apprentice in the movie version of Howl’s Moving Castle . He has no parents and deals with customers who come to buy potions while Howl is gone.

 

 

 

            For my version of him I created a custom hairpiece with Sculpy, moveable stub legs, and hand drew the details.

Movie: Fifth Element
Character: Mangalore with ZF1 gun

Mangalores are dim-witted mercenaries in the movie Fifth Element that Zorg hired to stop Korben Dallas and Leeloo from recovering the 4 element stones.  Zorg payed them in weapons, specifically the ZF1 gun, which comes with a built in self destruct feature that the Mangalores didn't learn about till it was too late.

Wow, didn't think I would make it! I wasn't able to completely finish the figure the way I wanted to, as a Decal Order didn't ship in time, but I do like the way it turned out.The figure is a World War II soldier named Pvt. Steven Gould. He was a medic, and survived the Malmedy Massacre. He is based on the movie Saints and Soldiers. Steven was a real soldier too, and the story of the movie is true.
