By the Lug.ie Team Comment Closed
The MOC of the Month for February 2019 Revolting Minifigures by Studnik Members lost their heads when voting for our February's best build with Studnik's Revolting Minifigures creation topping the poll. Studnik recreated a post-French Revolution scare with a twist with the executioners represented as Death itself. A great and thought provoking little MOC. Discover more pictures here.

By the Lug.ie Team Comment Closed
Limerick Exhibition (October) We had a fantastic turnout for the LimBrickCity exhibition over the weekend with members bringing along lots of brick built magic to join in the fun. Among the items on display were a literal microfig-scale Ireland, an 18th century tall-ship, a Pub and Bazaar, a combined Ninjago City and Docks, a shopping mall (where one can buy more bricks) and a Hogwarts Express (to get home). The Irish LEGO User Group would like to thank our friends at LimBrickCity for helping host the great day. Discover bigger (and better!) pictures of these great builds on the forum. Lug.ie Team  ...

Culture Night Exhibition Round-up

By the Lug.ie Team Comment Closed
Culture Night Exhibition Round-up We’d like to thank all those who came along to our Culture Night LEGO exhibition at the Civic Centre in Blanchardstown, Dublin and all our members for bringing along and showing their collections and creations. We were particularly happy to see members Nicky and Merlin display their fantastic wares for the first time. The exhibit was very well attended and there was a lot of enthusiasm for everything that was on display. Nicky's motorized bulldozerr and Royalridge's customised LED lit up Millennium Falcon were not surprisingly among the crowd favourites. But can you spot BB-8 keeping an eye on things? Here's looking forward to the next show! Lug.ie Team ...

And the winner is…

By the Lug.ie Team Comment Closed
Building the Community Competition Ireland by Peter (Studnik) And the votes are in! Despite stiff competition Peter’s Ireland has been selected by the panel as the best Building the Community entry. With just 2 unique parts used this build is both simple and not at the same time. Instantly recognisable this symbolic MOC uses a silver little microfig for each and every Irish LEGO User Group member. That’s right, all 285 of us are accounted for. Can you spot yourself? Well we thought the idea was just great and the end result fantastic, so congratulations Peter for pulling it off. A sealed LEGO Ninjago 70607 box set will be on its way to you. Find out more about this MOC from its creator here.   We’d like to thank all who submitted an entry into the competition. Check out all the entries on the Forum's Members Creations board. We’ll be sure to have another building battle in future so we do hope to see more members...
