Announcing the third annual Expand the Winter Village Contest III!

As we enter the holiday season yet again, thoughts turn to fun and winter activities and where better to enjoy those than in your own Winter Village? So far, TLG has provided us with four places to visit, a lovely Winter Toy Shop, an equally inviting Winter Bakery, and elaborate and playful Post Office set and this year's new Cottage, but wouldn't it be nice to have an even larger Winter Village full of festive fun?

Well, now you can, by expanding the theme with your own Winter inspired creation!

Visit the Town Forum for more details!

Only four (4) days to go and there´s still room for more entries!

Just build something/anything that means Xmas for you using at least two (2) parts, take a picture and post it.

That small effort could land you five (5) of these SW minifigs sent home to you for free !

The catch? There is none! So go and do it now !

Pictures from Bricklink

Could these parts that have shown up in LEGO's parts database be included in a yet to be released series of Collectable Minifigures?

Head over to the Special Themes forum to discuss.

Thanks to Brickset and Aanchir for the news and many other EB members for the reconstructions of the potential CMFs.

Eurobricks member DanSto has created a very clever tribute to R2-D2, a collection of MOCs that relate to the droid.

See all of the components in finer detail and share your thoughts in the Star Wars forum!

BeLUG presents its upcoming event, next weekend (on 24-25 November 2012), in Antwerp.

This time I won't be there with a display, but I'll be visiting together with Captain Green Hair on Sunday.

Anyone else from Eurobricks planning on coming? Discussion topic

The third official Tournament or Retribution is a fact!

This is a contest in which you can win fantastic prizes by making funny comics concerning the epic age-old rivalry between Redcoat and Bluecoat soldiers.

The previous 2 tournaments were a big success, so we decided to have another one.

Please read the rules and sign up!

Is it worth putting on your LEGO book shelf? See what I think! See what DLuder thinks!

Super Heroes Month is now more than half way over. Have you started your contest entries yet?

First, stop in and revisit your youth as you recall the glorious art that adorned your favourite comics,

then try to recreate it yourself. In LEGO! Could it get any better than that? Why not take a look at

the Super Hero Comic Cover Contest and then join in!

Got that covered already? Then join Shadows The Scrutineer in the Games Forum for the opportunity of a lifetime,

actually getting to be a Superhero. And kill people. Lots and lots of people. All in the name of justice!

Don't expect it to be a long lifetime, however.

And then head over to Brick Flicks & Comics and enter the Superhero Video Contest for a chance to win fantastic prizes!

Seriously. Don't forget. Go!

Seems several members are without an 'avatar'.

Online an avatar is the equivalent to a face, so it's like taking to someone without a face

I'd like to encourage all our faceless members to get an avatar.

In case you need help making one I'm sure there'll be plenty other members willing to assist (you can mention in this topic what kind of avatar you'd like).

Adding an avatar to your profile is really easy, but in case you need help you can check our Eurobricks Visual Guide.
