What an amazing build. I'd like to see what it looks like with some transparent bricks for splashes. I don't think such a large whale could breach the surface without causing some splashes. Thanks for all the awsome videos.

put a dingy with guys with scared faces right where he is going to splashdown. Would be very funny and make it more dense

Great brick-built but minifig-ish scale whale! The angles are what make it so clever - in multiple places. The slightly discoloured items are hardly noticeable and actually might that not simply reflect that they are under the water? Loved it - we had a whale of a time watching. Thank you. 🐳

Probably the best thing i have ever seen someone create with Lego. This was awesome too watch!

Awww that's lovely. So glad you liked it. I also enjoyed this build a lot. So beautiful!

This is a great build! I'm quite impressed with everything you've designed for this big guy. He feels like an appropriate size, and love the jumping out-of-water angle going on. Awesome work!

Just coming out of my lego "dark ages" and have watched a lot of the "bigger names" on youtube. I'm from the UK and loving your channel, I feel like I'm in early on someone who will be bigger. Love your style, humour and always impressed with your MOC building skills.

Welcome aboard. Not sure about "being early" though, haha. Glad you're loving the channel, great to have you with us!

You have truly outdone yourself this time my friend. Great job. You know a few fishermen pointing with surprised faces at the bow of the boat is a requirement. I do like him turned a bit with more blue facing the viewer.

Wow Robin. That Whale is amazing. I think, like you said, Moby Brick would be a great name !

Amazing!!!! Would love to see some splash wedges or even a brick built splash with trans pieces and some white even, showing the force with which he is breaching the surface...and then a small dingy with terrified occupants beneath his landing zone!

Impressive. Most impressive. A very worthy centrepiece, and no mistake.

Thanks a million!

It's amazing builds like this that sets your channel apart from all the other Lego channels on KZread. This build is spot on and you captured every little detail and shape of the whale fantastically. it add so much life to that level of the cabinet. Awesome 👌

I really like how you do it in the cabinet with magnets so you see both over and under the water both or the oil rig and the boats. And for the whale it was really amazing. It gives the entire scene so much life.

This whole display is awesome, i really cant wait to see more of this display. You are a very clever man robin.

This is excellent! My suggestion for a name is Humphrey.

The whale 🐋 looks awesome. The pieces you used are perfect. Maybe put one of the crab 🦀 pots in the water with the floating bit with rope to the bottom and crabs 🦀 crawling over the cage?

Whale I'll be darned! This build is b'reaching for the stars! It's a barnacle you were able to find all the parts you needed. You must be head-over-flop'pers excited for this in sea cabinet 😆👍 tooo many good puns to pass up on 😆

Looks fantastic! That cabinet is gonna be one of the most unique Lego things on KZread

Absolutely brilliant MOC - looks spot-on, breaching like that... though I think you're right - he/she needs an effect of the 'water' around the breach to be churning

Yes, when I have them in their final positions I will!

Wow amazing . The angle is just right and so are the proportions against the crab ship.👏👏👏 some splash would really show it off . May want a whale watcher in the crab ship. Well done 👍🏼

That is one of the best animal mocs I've ever seen. There was a great tiger moc that came out recently, but this stands up well with it, really amazing building here.

the whale looks great! here's an idea you can do: you can add waves to the top glass shelf with modge podge or glue. apply it to the top and then blow over it while it is wet to make the surface wavy

I found myself clapping at how good this looks! great job!

This is so awesome. You have such amazing creativity.

Fantastic use of angles to show movement, it really highlights the benefit of the glass and magnets too as it looks great from all directions . A few added splashes will really add to the effect, but not sure if that will look odd from below the glass looking up

This is so awesome! I was thinking free willy but then it’s a different kind of whale. A small dingy with a man fearing for his life as the whale leaps over close to him would make for a funny scene 😄

I love ocean mocs we need more of them

I agree the magnetics is very smart and where did you get backround from and how much did the cabinet cost? Does the cabinet stop dust too also well done on the moc it's looking absolutely amazing and you are a very talented builder and easy going funny person too

This is magnificent!! I absolutely love it, no suggestions. Brilliant. Love the angle.

Normally I don't tell people to submit their MOCs into Lego Ideas but this one needs to be. It is absolutely heads above any other brick built animal I have seen. Instead of the magnets you would have to add some more ball joints. I would suggest maybe building a second whale and having it swimming under the water to represent a real live whale pod.

Another ingenious build from Robinhood bricks! Amazingly simple and surprisingly great!

You mentioned a dinghy being taken out by the whale - could make a funny scene!

I have the perfect name for the Whale Little John ! Nottingham needs a little John!

Just next level wow... I have seen that happen for real and is one of my best experiences in life maybe. So from now on this is my favorite RHB build! Maybe a little obvious, but I would call him little John!

Such a brilliant build! Awesome content as always! 🙌😄

Magnificent build. Maybe add some whale barnacles attached to the whale? Maybe some water splashing?

14:15 Mrs Hood sold your ideas to Lego in exchange for Danish pastries! 😱

Wow! I love benthic creations! I love this moc, it is very organic. Brilliant job Robin!😊

Well worth the wait ☺️. I absolutely love this build. I vote for Wilbur the whale 🐋. How about a terrified fig in a canoe 🛶 right behind the breach 🌊💦

That's brilliant! A great combination of visually appealing yet also functional (ball-joints and the magnet trick).

Fantastic build! This is definitely one of your bests.

That's an awesome effect! Well done! I also know the pain of finding dark blue piecies, I went trough it myself too fro my train builds (PKP IC loco and ČD wagons). Especially this eye-holder modified bricks, I went for switching to black because of the price.

Absolutely amazing!!!

Love it. Looks like he's leaping out of the cabinet! Think the name has to be Moby Brick

I love the technique you’ve used with the micro joints! I’m doing a nasa style ship and that technique will be perfect for what I want to do!

Very nice job Robin. I wouldn't worry too much about some fading. Very few real animals are all one perfect colour. And I'm with you on the grey slope on the fin- adds definition

That is so cool I can't wait to see what goes into the cabinet next

Fantastic sea creature! It looks so good crossing between the two levels. 😍

A super moc build Robin, looks outstanding 👏 👌

Your whale is amazing. He looks so majestic rising out of the water. By putting him in that spot it makes the Minifig with the pink swim ring even funnier. The cabinet is slowly coming along.

I feel like he is missing some barnacles, I think the cupcake peices would make great barnacles. You could even name him Barnacle and call him Barney for short.

Best brick built animal I’ve ever seen! Really impressive!I like the whale 🐋 Maybe a buoy marker on the surface with a chain that goes to the bottom might look good? Or submarine or divers. I guess the options are endless. Really great build, fun video to watch

EPIC WORK!

absolutely fantastic 👌

Cool. It looks great. Well done.

Awesome build. Since he's a Blue Whale, I'd call him Alan.

This is an amazing build, One of a kind.👍 it’s perfect size

Great job

I’m not normally a fan of brick-built animals, but I must say this whale is magnificent Robin! He looks absolutely perfect!

Fantastic job Robin Moby Brick!

Wow, you are just brilliant!!

1 word: genius!

Awesome build. I think adding splashes will make it even more awesome.🙂

The whale looks incredible!!! But the red ship should “sink” a bit more into the water if you can manage to do it.

I really don't know how to not sound like a kid but c he is AWESOME. Beautiful would be another good word I think. So very creative. THANKS.

Wow that’s amazing man.

looks great Robin and the parts you have yoused. great build. i got one from. that creator light house set with light up brick. the Waile in the set is cool to ...

Looks absolutely amazing, the only thing I would change is turn the pectoral fin inwards towards the belly so it looks more accurate.

This is an amazing build, you could angle the flippers a little, if you edge the nearest one down and the furthest one away, whale tend to angle their flnns when they breach.

Absolutely stunning! Nat Geo Moment! 😊

You'll need to have a small boat with some minifigures doing some whale watching, but they could be looking in the wrong direction with the whale behind them

Holy cow, you have outdone yourself ! It's magnificent ! The scale, the shape, the motion... My only complain is when the fins are aligned with the camera, i can't unsee the giant living white and blue banana. But it's my fault. Thanks brain... 😭 Did you do some weight resistance tests with your magnets to see how much they can take ? Does the waiting between having an idea, sourcing all the needed parts almost one by one, and be able to finally built it isn't too frustrating ? November to april seems so long ! Anyway, i'm learning a lot with your MOCs building process throughout your videos. It really helps ! So, thanks again !

I Love your creativity and taste. The whale is just beautiful, I really can't get enough of him. (The angle is amazing) It would be funny if you add a kayak with shocked Passengers in it. I think the tail is a bit too small For an animal this Size, but still it's one of My favourite build so far :) Btw your humour is brilliant

A brilliant build and well worth the wait! It would be great if you could get a minifig skeleton and row boat in its stomach though!

It’s a gorgeous build. I would definitely be on the side of adding water splashes, not only to the whale, but maybe also the front of the crab ship and around the base of the oil rig supports.

Totally fantastic!!! You are a lego genius! We really enjoyed your creative work with the whale. This was such an enjoyable episode and what’s more you saved us the cost of a day’s whale watch tour!! BTW will Robin be giving medieval scuba diving lessons? - Anna and Des

Wow this was epic, I want it, I need it, get it on ideas haha

Splendid

This is a great build! Do not bother to exchange the dark blue angled slope bits just because of a differing colour, as the slight variation in colour just adds to the organic feel of the creation (although if you think the eventual scratches of the used bricks are annoying just feel free to...). This also goes for the greyish joints between the flippers and the body - they are just fine nuances of colour to make the whole figure look that much more interesting and natural. I know that you usually don't care much about whether your additions to your city or other creations are natural-looking or not, but in this case it might just give that "wow"-effect...

Barnacles!!! Robin, you need barnacles. Some studs on the underside might do it. Oh and a blow hole with one of those water splash pieces if possible. Otherwise it's perfectly fine. It would go well with that shark set creator introduced 31088

Magnificent…maybe a few popcorn pieces just next to the beast

This is an incredibly impressive build! All it’s missing is a boat of whale watchers getting absolutely soaked!

@RobinHoodBricks Amazing!! This could definitely be an ideas set. Also, a facade of a smaller ship on a corner could look good too to add depth(sorta). I'm thinking something around the length wise of the ideas sail boat or smaller.

@chrischristiansen6204

2 жыл бұрын

Or if we are really ambitious the facade could be edge of an island that we could continue down the full case in some way? The tricky part would be how steep a lot of the slope would have to be to still fit in the cabinet without crowding the lower areas out.

Great build Robin! I suggest you submit this to ideas. It would be a relatively small set for Lego but I am sure they would move forward on this one

Awesome whale build! Make one or two more and submit it to Lego ideas.

I would totally buy this whale as a set

And again, i´m very surprised by how little likes this video has, its a beautiful and no less very creative build

You should submit this to lego. Just a fantastic design.

Nice build What about doing a Hydrogen peroxide soaking bath in the sun for the discolored parts or the hole whale How about a joke, plankton (from sponge bob) jumping in front of him 😂

great whale moc robin
