I can't believe you've never seen those. On that site people have posted dreadnaughts, predators and rhinos, more titans, drop pods and even a minifig SM. I'm not so sure about the other armies though, I've never seen them, and I've read from the first post to the current ones, which is a couple of years of posting. With a couple of posts every day.

I was fiddling with the Lego editor recently, and decided to put together ten little men, and give them those loudspeaker things with a clear red cone stuck on the end (like I used to to make laserguns). The I gave one a banner, and another some armour and a sword... finally one got his weapon extended slightly and a clear green cone instead of a red one.
Ten man squad with a plasma rifle!
Order price came to about $16. Heh heh... Oh, how I've considered playing Warhammer with Lego!

I usually make the Buildings out of Legos; or blown up walls, plastic bushes, or the little flowers for cover saves. Some of the Lego Box Sets, or even MegaBlocks, have cool pre-built terrain like hills, mountains, and moon platforms. The little Lego men might make good Servitors with a little bit of green stuff. The possibilities are endless with Legos.
I think Lego is a Dutch word that means "Plays well" or something like that.

I love that lego titan in the first post. Does anyone know where you find a build guide for one of those? Or if it comes out to a playable scale for 40k?

I've looked but can't seem to locate an email address for the guy who made it on the pages it's being shown off on. I left a comment on one of his blogs, who knows. He also made a Dreadnought that's rather cool looking.

Usually, people don't make instructions for their lego creations as they don't start out with a plan, and then they don't want to take their creation apart to make instructions. Good luck, but I doubt you'll have any success.

JD21290 wrote:lego is cheap, allways good quality, adaptable. someone find lego hound plans and ill order 10x the parts needed  Cheap? Not really. He probably bought nearly $300 USD worth of sets to get enough parts to build the Warhound in a single matching color. The average $20 set is 75-120 pieces, the average 11" custom build involves 2000-3000(slightly less, depending on if you want moving parts) individual pieces, and those normally contain more than 2-3 colors involved. If you want to make a 40K scale warhound, be prepared to spend almost as much as just buying a Warhound(Armorcast or Forgeworld). Considering this one uses mostly Bionical parts, it's closer to 5-6", much too short for 40K. And yes, I used to custom kitbash Legos.

it might work out a bit cheaper, but it looks wicked.

Right, this may be a bit of a threadcromancy, but I actually have some interesting things to add. Here, here, here (at the bottom of the page) and [url=http://www.brothers-brick.com/2006/07/05/hellfire-dreadnaught-from-warhammer-40000]here[url/] are some other lego 40k models, I thought you'd appreciate them.
