Iron Builder: Round 1 results

Posted by Admin
The world heavyweight of LEGO® building contests, Iron Builder is underway and the results of the first round in the Iron Forge are in! There were 120 entries from over 60 builders and only the top 20 progress to Round 2, which whittles the 20 down to eight.

The seed part was minifigure legs. Here are the 20 winners in no particular order, other than that we have arranged them into the groups they will be completing within in the next round. Bring on the NPU!

"Boom! Toasted!"
Some builders are bred for greatness, and others are just bread to be toasted. It's a Wonder some have even made it this far... "Boom! Toasted!"

A day off
"Alright guys, you can leave now. Show is over.
Oh and let me take a seat and enjoy your fighting, as it's all a joke to me."

Treasure Hunter
To use some legs is here the quest - so look who I found with his treasure chest!

Mechanical Pirate Toy
The pirates also wanna join in...

[Editor's note: There's also a video showing how Ben used official LEGO magnets in this model. The ship contains the accessory that holds the golden egg from 4767 Harry and the Hungarian Horntail and the base uses a train magnet.]

"Should we really enter, R3-B1?"
"You might have had feelings of A New Hope,
might have thought your builds were dope,
but - sorry - I've got to Strike Back,
enter me - with the Return of the Leg!"
