Pinch-bot

Don’t be crabby, but I may have pinched another idea…As for the summit, well, I’ve clawed my way to the top before and I’ll do it again!

TV-Head

I’ve got to hand it to you Ari , you’ve put up a strong fight this round! Now, some may accuse me of having “sticky fingers” when it comes to parts usage here, bot like Picasso said, great artists steal!

Welcome to Carcosa, little priest

I Love your little craft project… But if you think you’re going to robe me of my victory, think again, I’ve still got some tricks up my sleeve.

Part-icipation Trophy

Can you handle the pressure Ari ? I’ve built a few award-winning MOCs in my time, so winning this round should be no problem for me… My cup runneth over with ideas for NPU, I’m just worried I’ll have to shelve some of them to have time to sleep!

“Gila” Mobile Mining Mech

I think you need to come back down to earth Ari , it’s plane to see I’ve got this in the bag! This build really got my motor running, but I’m just scraping the surface of this part’s potential: I’ve got a hole lot more ideas on my bucket list. You’re gonna need to dig deep if you wanna win this, because I’m no light-weight!

May you be touched by his noodly appendage

Now that’s quite a monster! But does yours fly? You’ll need to be a real Renaissance builder if you hope to beat me. People may say they follow Iron Builder for the MOCs, but I think we all know that what really sells are artful nood-le pics! (sauce below)

Dam rodents!

Now there’s a build I can sink my teeth into! I don’t know about any rabbits and turtles, but I’ll leave it to these guys to secure my victory. If you’d like to lodge a complaint, take it up with Simon!

Banana Hammock

Either way, I feel like kickin’ back with a cold one after this round is over…

Food Fight!

They call me Donuts, ’cause I be dunkin! You may think my puns are corny, but you can’t deny my MOCs got a-peel! Now let’s see if Ari can come up with something to turn the tables…

Across the sulfur wastes

I feel the need, the need for a seed! Can you keep up, Ari , or am I gonna leave you in the dust? (My apologies if all these puns are a little in-sulfur-able!)

Rock ’em, sock ’em

Looks like I’ve beaten you to the punch again, Ari… I hope whatever you’re working can knock things out of the park, I’d hate for you to throw in the towel already!

Breakfast time!

Knife to meet you Ari ! Are you as eggs-cited for this round as I am? I hope you’re bready for this, because you butter believe I’m not gonna take it easy!

Season’s Greetings! (Scene Version)

I’ll admit, I was hobbling for a bit there, but then a nice little conductor took me on a ride! I may be “Miscellana”-builds, but there are a few niches I find myself coming back to time and time again. Characters? Of coruse! Interiors/Exterior scenes? You got it! Micro Star Wars ships? Every once in a while, yeah. Christmas… well, it’s summer, so I don’t know what you expect me to do…

…Of course I’m doing a Christmas build! And depending on how you look at it, you could consider it two Christmas builds …

I commend you, Geneva; you have (unsurprisingly) done a spectacular job and shown why you could be the next Iron Builder! That being said, I’ve been training for this for years now, and I’m al-rail-dy to claim the throne! While I may have had the first laugh (6 laughs, if you count them), I give you the chance for the last! You can dle-ay your post, but you can’t delay the end… once the 10 PM bell rings, it’s all in the hands of the judges!

And with that, I shall bow and take my leave! This past fortnight (great, that’s stuck in my head now) has been both exhilarating and exhausting, but you know what they say; don’t be sorry it happened, be happy it’s over! I hope I’ve given a few people some solid bingos, and if not, there’s always next time!

Let the Games Begin

“While you play with your toys”… Geneva, we’re in a Lego competition, we’re both playing with over-glorified toys.

You might think you’re in the lead, but check your rearview mirrors, mate… I’m right behind you! The end is nearly u-pawn us; is it making your heart in your chess pound yet? Anyway, I am certain we both have a few more builds up our sleeves- with my experience in Iron Forge, I’m no rookie when it comes to speed building, and you seem quite a-queen-ted as well.

We still have just under 52 hours left, and the knight’s still young. I’ve done myself a bit of shopping and am ready to get the ball rolling on my last build. Let’s give the audience one hecc of a finale, Geneva!

Sub_Final_Real_Final_3

Wheel, wheel, wheel, wheel… so you’ve pulled ahead. And in style… I love those waves, and that jeep… just… wow. You’ve really illustrated why you could be the next Iron Builder. Looks like I really need to step up my game. But not before I post my fun retort build for the round. Also, I didn’t realize you had a YT channel… time to sub! Teh seed part was really only used once, but can you spot the other two?

Royal Guard TIE Advanced

Very snazzy rocket you got there! It looks like it could go quite far in the universe… although with the Empire around, I don’t think it will have the chance beyond it’s maiden voyage. Better climb aboard your starship and head for the skies!

This round has been flying by, and while there is no clear winner yet, I can assure you there won’t be a TIE, as only one of us can advance. I am already making preparations to protect the throne; after all, every ruler needs their Royal Guard! And if you win, I’ll subcontract them out to you; just make sure to give me a W2 (and no, that’s no droid).

Skyscraper Digital Designer

I’m afraid wishful thinking has clouded your judgment: most of your entries have felt more like works in progress than finished builds to me. Don’t worry about it though, I’m sure you’ll still get an A for effort! And now, after two weeks of building up the suspense, it’s time to reveal my final build and say goodbye to this round and to you, Mr Maxxwell. May the best win! Although I think we both already know who that is 😉 This throne is quite comfortable and I won’t mind keeping it a little longer.

The Artist’s Studio

Still dizzy? Feeling like you’ve painted yourself into a corner? Or maybe you’re too amazed by the sheer artistry of my performance? Well, don’t dawdle: I’m moving forward and have no intention of waiting around for you – you better be working those brushes and canvases Picasso!

Silly, silly cat.

Tut-tut – violence is never the answer, Maxx. But if you ever find yourself out of options, here’s some advice: pick someone who’s your own size rather than the strongest one in the room, otherwise you’ll find yourself in a pinch. Looks like your little friend had to learn that the hard way…

Dr. Corgi, Professor of Philoswoofy

The postcard I sent you… How could you? I’m no philosopher, but I think this relationship we’re in might be a bit toxic. You doggedly pursue victory, I’ll give you that, but you might be flying too close to the sun: the way I see it, the best you can do is a tie, and that’d already be a great accomplishment.

Flight of the Iron Swallowtail

And just like that, your painstakingly obtained head start flutters away! This butterfly doesn’t just look good: upon closer insecttion, you might even see it come to life 😉 How’s that for a come-back? Only a full metamorphosis of your builds would save you from a crushing defeat now…

Postcard

Don’t you worry about me! This round is smooth sailing for me, so I took a few days off. I’m now back from my impromptu vacation and feeling swell – I even got you a postcard.

Interstate 10 is really backed up today.

Are you toying with me? I know what rabbits look like, and they’re not heavily-armed war machines… Regardless, my builds are already domino-ting yours, so you’ll need much more than your red and white minion to bring me down. Be warned – I’ve been training up for this and I’m prepared for every eventuality!

The Getaway

Your photography setup is cute Maxx, I’ll give you that – but a white background is very last decade of you, don’t you think? Don’t worry though, you’ll catch up eventually Although I’m afraid your chances of winning are quicky escaping… And all that monkeying around isn’t helping your case. I, however, have my ticket to success in hand and won’t be letting it go!

Fall of an Empire

I’m not here to play around @mrmaxxwell, so I’ll go ahead and get serious right off the bat. I intend on keeping my throne and if you don’t watch out, your dreams of greatness may just end up being ruined! Now let’s fire this thing up and get to building!

Very Last Strike (The Samurai)

You stole my katana? Sword of. Doesn’t matter, I have a whole arsenal to finish you off. My Samurai is larger, by your head to be precise!

RC Tank

Did you desert already? Roses pairs well with l’armour, so I thought I’d give you a special treadment. My skills remain gunbarrelleled, I’m in full control and ready for the final battle!

Green Piranha Plants

Catching up? Great idea. No plants for losing tho. You’ll need to level up to fight your way to the final boss…

Sneaker

Is that boot your portkey to witness the greatest player in the tournament? Shoe-t, this game won’t end in a tie. Clearly, my footsteps are too big for you. Try kids’ size, bambino!

Matoro in the Making

Probably won over the judges on seat part usage already, so I can sit back and experiment a bit now: His name might not be Koopaka, but this Toa of Ice is pretty cool nonetheless. Eye hid most of the seed part this time, so just like you, Matoro’s still a little green.

Granny’s Couch

I-cy, you’re pretending to be a pine-er here. I’ll rest in my cozy comfort zone tho. All my builds have been bangers sofa, therefore I’ll grow old on this throne. Look, you’re not the only one who got some good old constraction pieces on diskplay.

Fabergé Egg

Don’t care about your stinkray, it’s time for the deus eggs machina. As the rightful ruler over ForlornEmpire, I figured I had to hire the world’s most talented artist to create my Coronation Egg!

The LA Diamonds Cheerleaders

A dress is all you need to join in! I donut care what you might be thinking, crowd’s cheering me up during this warm-up phase. You’ll be beaten with a slam dunk soon enough…

First Strike

You cannot handle what you have summoned here. Our daimyō has decided that you shell be granted an honorable death. You have two weeks, until I’ll happily serve as your kaishakunin!
