henrysunset Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 I know that many readers here are from Europe, but I also suspect that many of you have learned that there's a big budget season of LEGO Masters in the USA, with LEGO Batman Voice Actor Will Arnett, and Judging by Senior LEGO Designers Jamie Berard & Amy Corbett. The competitors are world-class LEGO artists, who have created some really amazing builds. (It's not hard to find the first four episodes online...) I had the opportunity to meet about half of the contestants this weekend at Bricks Cascade. I have to say, what a great set of folks—they were all very nice, passionate about the LEGO brick, and patient with weekend attendees who spent upwards of an hour in line to meet them! I also learned that many of the contestants are sharing behind the scenes details on YouTube, articles on their blogs, and even microscale renditions of the models that they built during the competition. Because it's so hard to find all of these resources, I put them all in one place. (It's fascinating to learn more about how different teams tackled each of the challenges so far!) LINK: https://brickarchitect.com/2020/meet-the-lego-masters-youtube-instagram-twitter/ The article has two sections: The first section includes social medial links for all of the contestants who have public websites, blogs, YouTube, Instagram, and Twitter accounts. The second section is organized by episode, with links to the specific articles/videos/images which the contestants have shared with fans. I do apologize that I missed the opportunity to take a photo with all of the cast which attended the show, but did get this great photo with Corey Samuels... Photo with Travis Samuels, from team 'Brothers Who Brick' Let me know if you find additional content from the contestants so I can add it to the article! Sincerely, —Tom Alphin P.S. Have you seen the show—what do you think? (I have a few minor gripes with the show, but would rather hear what you think first...) Leave a comment below! Quote
Vindicare Posted March 3, 2020 Posted March 3, 2020 (edited) Overall, I’m enjoying the show. I understand with the amount of teams it’s hard to focus on the builds in an hour time slot. My hope is that when they get down to four teams(and less) they focus more on the builds themselves. I didn’t care at all for the smashing challenge. That’s not okay to me. Now for the other part...I get its a reality show, and they need drama...but man, I’m not a fan. Wasting time with that that could’ve gone into showing the building process. The arguing, the crying, the planned phone call...just no. The disagreements are fine, because that’s part of the building process. Edited March 3, 2020 by Vindicare Quote
