Captain Nemo 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

purpleparadox Posted September 16, 2012 Great work, Captain Nemo! I love the Flash's red-streak-thingy and Gorilla Grodd's lasers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ferrik 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
XimenaPaulina 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! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Oky 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! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
soccerkid6 Posted September 17, 2012 Great work! The effect of Flash running is brilliant Grodd's evil mechanism looks neat too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phoenix 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SoupOrFishOil 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted September 20, 2012 Great slow motion picture! I like the effect of the laser beams that pierce the running effect! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rinzler Posted January 22, 2014 Very Nice, I'm thinking of using that brick built ape from chima as Grodd Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Nemo 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

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. 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.

Rinzler 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 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

korpen4444 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. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
