My partner Kristal and I usually spend most of the summer traveling to various rock climbing destinations around North America, camping along the way.
K: Do you remember your first day when you get your first LEGO set?J: Haha, that happened way too long ago for me to remember!
Flickr member and LEGO Fan Amida Na has shared the alien monster Kaiju Knifehead from the movie Pasific Rim (2013). This creation is really unique with its huge size and great surface modeling. He also built MOC of a stuffed dragon which is also another great MOC that you have to see. Interestingly we have seen a very similar knifehead model before built by Olive Sean in 2013.
