Captain Nemo Posted September 16, 2012 Posted September 16, 2012 “Deep in the African jungles and on the outskirts of the elusive Gorilla City—the villainous Gorilla Grodd is attempting to brainwash all of its ape citizens! But look!—if you look fast enough!—the Flash has come to save the day! Is Grodd’s trigger finger fast enough to target the fastest man alive? Will Flash save the day? Does Grodd like bananas? Only time will tell in the next episode of The Flash! The Flash vs. Gorilla Grodd First off, no there is not second episode! Flash wins—duh. Anyways, I was very excited to finally see some new series 8 collectable Minifigures at a local store, and after finding a few I wanted—like the Alien Queen—a few I didn’t really need but like—Conquistador—and a few crappy ones by accident—Pirate Captain! S**t!—I was able to get the pieces, mainly the cape, to make a nice version of Grodd. From there it was a simple task of just building a nice vignette to show him off as well as my fake Flash figure—come on Lego! Make a Flash already! Enjoy, ~Captain Nemo Quote
lightningtiger Posted September 16, 2012 Posted September 16, 2012 Excellent piece of MOCing 'Captain Nemo'.....I would say he loves banana's and he's evil plan is having all the banana's in the world to himself ! Great Flash running effect too.....Brick On 'Captain Nemo' ! Quote
purpleparadox Posted September 16, 2012 Posted September 16, 2012 Great work, Captain Nemo! I love the Flash's red-streak-thingy and Gorilla Grodd's lasers. Quote
Ferrik Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 Haha, great story. This MOC looks excellent. I especially like how you made the effects for Flash, so it looks as if he's actually running. The machine looks detailed too. Quote
XimenaPaulina Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 Fantastic effects on Flash! That's really creative and ingenious. The purist custom Grodd, his evil contraption, and the rest of the vig is also really well done! Quote
Oky Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 Wow! Great scene! You can really tell what's going on just by looking at it! That Flash blur is indeed brilliant! I love everything about it - how you can see the yellow from the lighting bolts on his head, how you can see that he jumped over that banana, how you see each of Grodd's shots going towards him, but missing - everything! Now if only that was a real Flash minifig! Quote
soccerkid6 Posted September 17, 2012 Posted September 17, 2012 Great work! The effect of Flash running is brilliant Grodd's evil mechanism looks neat too Quote
Phoenix Posted September 18, 2012 Posted September 18, 2012 Great work! I love the multiple laser beams and the red blur behind Flash - I bet this one looks great on display. Quote
SoupOrFishOil Posted September 19, 2012 Posted September 19, 2012 Wonderful MOC. I especially like Grodd and how the bananas are all over the place. I do hope that we get these characters some day...this just made me want them more. Quote
LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted September 20, 2012 Posted September 20, 2012 Great slow motion picture! I like the effect of the laser beams that pierce the running effect! Quote
Rinzler Posted January 22, 2014 Posted January 22, 2014 Very Nice, I'm thinking of using that brick built ape from chima as Grodd Quote
Captain Nemo Posted January 22, 2014 Author Posted January 22, 2014 Very Nice, I'm thinking of using that brick built ape from chima as Grodd Thanks! Yes the Chima ones are nice. At the time of this creation, this was the only gorilla to use, but I think he works well if not too plain. However I do think Lego needs to make more new villains like Grodd offically anyways. One of my good friends on Flickr made a spectacular Chima Grodd, you can check it out here. Quote

One of my good friends on Flickr made a spectacular Chima Grodd, you can check it out here. That's what mine will look like as soon as I get around to ordering that cape. The CMF one is pretty good, too. I just like the angrier expression on the Chima fig. Quote
Rinzler Posted January 23, 2014 Posted January 23, 2014 One of my good friends on Flickr made a spectacular Chima Grodd, you can check it out here. That is nice, I'll think i'll stick to the brick built one though. No regular gorilla is strong enough totake on The Flash AND my custom Jay Garrick Quote
Bricktimus Posted January 25, 2014 Posted January 25, 2014 I love the speedlines! Great effect!! Quote
Rinzler Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 (edited) customs are you a kid I'm in my teens, and my customs aren't that bad (Nemo- your's are amazing) if TLG haven't made the real thing yet Edited January 26, 2014 by Rinzler Quote
korpen4444 Posted January 26, 2014 Posted January 26, 2014 customs are you a kid Dude, everyone makes customs. There's an entire forum dedicated to customs. And almost every MOC has them. Quote
