Omicron Declares Mortal Kombat!

Omicron of ChocoBrick Customs has created a new series custom minifigures based on the Mortal Kombat video game franchise. Each figure is great, but the stand out for me was this rendition of Goro.

Omi used a dremel tool to drill a second set of arm holes in the torso. Although Goro's legs come courtesy of a Slave Leia figure, he's all man up top (Dastan specificially). Colonel Dovchenko from Indiana Jones provides the noggin. Finally the hairpiece is a BrickForge original. The ponytail should be available soon on their store.

Are You Not Entertained?

Sir Nadroj salutes those about to die with this killer historical MOC. These custom gladiators are a great mash-up of various LEGO themes like Kingdoms, Atlantis, Indiana Jones, and Prince of Persia.

If you click through to Jordan's Flickr stream you'll also see a great Emperor minifig giving the thumbs down symbol flanked by two Roman guards...not to mention the fantastic Colosseum vignette!

Little Legends Hit Girl Kicks Ass

Customizer Little Legends had designed and is currently selling this custom minifig of Hit Girl from the movie Kick-Ass.

The minifigure design is very simple and clean. Custom decals on the torso and face provide the main features, complemented by a hand painted version of hair piece 62711. This bob was recently featured on a variety of LEGO Agents heroes and villains and Irina Spalko from Indiana Jones.

The guns are star corps blasters from The Little Arms Shop, while the cape seems to be typical LEGO fare.

If you look at this reference photo from the movie, you can see that you could further plus this figure to make it just that much closer to its celluloid counterpart.

Although I couldn't find one online, it would be great to have a minifigure tartan skirt to adorn this mini-mite. I did find some decal templates on Flickr, but it would be great to see a rubberized piece to best simulate the pleats and motion of the fabric.

The gloves could be simulated by using BrickForge vambraces with hands in in the same color.

The mobility lost may or may not be worth using part 41879 to duplicate her short stature.

Finally, replacing those blasters with a couple of naginata from Fine Clonier would really seal the deal.
