I like that the last competition was aligned with a long term goal. What is the plan for the Cranberry Library this summer?

Well, it seems we were going to build some stuff, and put it in their display case… 😛

But seriously, that thread hasn’t gained much traction yet… maybe this is a way to bump it!

[Greg Schubert]

The summer reading theme is “Libraries Rock.” Ben has been working on collecting parts for some gigantic library project for a couple of years. I do not know anything of the details, but its going to be YUGE.

@bengood921 do you have an idea for this display that we could use as a point of collaboration and as a Q2 challenge?

[Will McDine]

In the Thread about Build challenges, I remember Brick heads being mentioned. The thought seems interesting, plus they are pretty fun to build, and small easy cup credit builds for displays

[Dan]

With all the talk of building giant logos why not a mini-logo challenge?

[Josh]

if anyone wants to take ownership of picking/defining/judging go for it. I haven’t heard a tie in to the summer reading display, but I do believe effort to encourage others to build for something like that is a great goal.

I’ll default to brickheads if no one replies by this friday. here’s the idea thread if there are other ideas. http://www.steelcitylug.com/forum/topic/quarterly-challenge-ideas/

How about Brickheadz self-portraits. That might be funny

[Will McDine]

Assuming now that BrickHeadz will be official? If that is the case I will not volunteer to judge as I plan on Participating Fully. Already have multiple ideas brewing!

[Josh]

brickheadz it is. doesn’t have to be a self portrait, but certainly can be.

This should help a lot of people learn the basics – https://brickset.com/article/26620/the-anatomy-of-a-brickheadz

[Tom Frost]

I’ll step up and judge this one

Or wait a few weeks and pick up a copy of 41597, or is that cheating?

I did not know of this; that’s hilarious.

If anyone is going this route, it is now available from Lego, and at Toys R Us

[David Bacon]

I have some themed brickheadz brewing for this contest. I’m looking forward to it.

[Greg Schubert]

So who won and what did they make?

[Tom Frost]

Will McDine won with his Fireman, self-portrait, POTUS, and Peter Griffin (and snazzy display stands).

David Bacon was a very close second with his King Friday, Daniel Striped Tiger, and Purple panda.

Bob was third with his storm trooper and Snoopy.

I judged but built an exhibition portrait of myself and Amy.
