Photos from Brickvention 2017

January 14, 2017 By Jay 21 Comments

This year, I did Brickvention a little differently, choosing to attend on the Convention Day instead of the usual weekend. Mostly because it’s a little hard to for me to go on the main days with a baby.

Brickvention 2017 is held at its usual venue, at the Royal Exhibition Building and is Australia’s largest LEGO fan convention and exhibition.

The Convention Day is primarily aimed at Adult Fans of LEGO (AFOLs) and is filled with tons of cool activities, talks, games and presentations from a really diverse group of people.

Among the speakers this year were LEGO Australia, who unveiled their new Build Australia campaign, which we’ll hear more of in the coming weeks.

One of the highlights, was hearing from John Peddie, the gentleman who was responsible for bringing LEGO into Australia way back in 1962. He was exceptionally dapper and enthralled attendees with his candid story of how he was whisked from England to Australia in less than two weeks.

Equipped with a suitcase filled with early LEGO sets and how he got started introducing the beloved brick to toy stores Down Under who had never heard of the Danish company.

Turns out, the very reason why LEGO is still so beloved today – its premium quality and means of unlocking limitless play was key in winning Australian retailers over, laying the foundation for the country to thoroughly embrace the LEGO brick. John is still very much engaged with LEGO, and still occupies a seat on LEGO Australia’s board of directors.

This year, Brickvention also brought in the Jason and Kristal from JK Brickworks, who gave an awesome presentation, from what I heard. Unfortunately, I missed most of it as I was out at lunch. Thankfully, I also had the opportunity to sit down with them for an interview, so look out for that in the coming days!

I really liked the Convention Day and will strongly consider attending again next year. Even though I didn’t get to stay the entire day because I was still quite unwell, I really enjoyed how laid back it was which allowed you time (and space) to really take in the builds and models on display, without being elbowed by a dozen people.

Miranda, designer of the Valley of the Wyvern Riders

I also really enjoyed chatting to the exhibitors and display designers, who were extremely gracious and were more than happy to talk about their builds, or LEGO. It’s always great to be in the company of other people who are passionate about LEGO.

The Convention Day is highly recommended if you dislike jostling with the crowds on the public days, and you do get your money’s worth.


As is the case every year, there’s a dizzying amount of LEGO to check out at Brickvention, and despite having a little bit more time this year, I still felt like I could’ve spent a few more hours admiring the designs.

It’s impossible to fit all the photos I took during the day, so here are some of my personal highlights from Brickvention 2017. If you want to see all the photos I took, please check out the album on my Facebook page.

I’ve tried to credit as much as possible, but I’ve missed a few thanks to my terrible memory, so if you see a MOC here that’s uncredited, please let me know and I’ll edit accordingly! Also, if you’re one of the designers and would like me to link to your Flickr, drop a comment or an email!

Majorca Building, Melbourne by Alan Jager

I was really impressed by this gorgeous take on Melbourne’s Majorca Building, and the Flinders Lane scene beneath it. Unfortunately, I forgot to take note of the designer, so if you know who it is, please let me know!

Inside My Imagination by Tammy Bateman

This chaotic jumble of colour was utterly delightful. Loved the use of colours and all the minifigures included inside. Would give Unikitty’s Cloud Cuckoo Land a run for its money!

Hornreach Keep by Eli Brinsmead & Benjamin Costantin

Hornreach Keep Interior

You can expect to see plenty of Castles at any LEGO fan event you attend, and Hornreach Keep was by far the most impressive at Brickvention. The technique used to build the outer wall, and the interiors were sublime. It’s a really minor detail, but I also really liked the white snakes used as smoke plumes.

Hornreach Keep took away the 2nd Best In Show award. Check out Benjamin Costantin’s Flickr page to see more of his builds and designs!

Hatter’s House by Tamara Dadswell

The Hatter’s House was another favourite of mine and made for a charming and whimsical setting for Alice in Wonderland. The exterior curves that give the structure its unique top hat shape and detailed interiors were just a pleasure to behold.

Tamara’s Hatter’s House won a Commendation Award.

Government House Melbourne by Dean Niclasen

Dean Niclasen’s Government House was yet another stunning build at an impressively large scale. Really loved how well the Victorian architecture was so well captured, as well as its bright, white exterior.

Pirate Ships

Always nice to see the entire LEGO Pirates fleet (minus Pirates of the Caribbean ships) assembled together. If I had money, I would try and collect all the historical Pirate Ships.

Ghostbusters City Scene by Andrew Chenski

Forgot to take note of the builder, but who doesn’t love a massive Stay Puft Marshmallow Man, terrorising a city. I also really like the extended Bank & Money Transfer building in the background – a LEGO set that I have really fond memories of.

Frogs and Lobsters by Hannigan

This superb galleon designed by 15 year old Hannigan was insane. I really loved how he achieved the curves on the brickbuilt hull, and extra kudos also to the structure on the island, especially the burning tower that’s in the midst of toppling over. I wish I had this much talent and ingenuity when I was 15.

Frogs and Lobsters won the Best Under 16 award, which was thoroughly deserved!

Food Glorious Food Picnic Scene by Dianne & Laura Winbanks & Natasha Meredith

Swanky High Tea by Ben Andrews, Kellee Ballard, Darren J Callesen, Tamara Dadswell, Murray Geddes, Elizabeth Shaw, Michael Szirom, Dion Whitehouse

The Art of Food by Angela

Every year, there are several “trending builds” at Brickvention. This year, it all seemed to revolve around brick-built food, specifically picnics!

Firescale the Fierce by Jason de Vries

This dragon sculpture has to have one of the best scaling designs that I’ve ever seen. The colours and textures give it such a unique look and I think is one of the most eye-catching designs in the entire convention.

Earthmoving Equipment by Rhett McKenzie

These Earthmoving CAT vehicles were absolutely massive and most importantly, incredibly well designed. I could totally imagine this as an entire licensed theme (that would sell truckloads).

Duplo Train Twisty Towers and Carousel by Jamie & Nancye Hanson

Every year, the Hansons always manage to impress with their massive Duplo displays. This year, they whip out a complex Duplo train system, and a motorised carousel. As there aren’t that many Duplo displays, these always stand out for all the right reasons.

Dragon Scouts by Emerson & Donna Mee

I really loved this dragon jamboreee which brought all sorts of LEGO dragons from Castle, Creator, Ninjago &  Elves together, all under the leadership of a yellow version of the iconic LEGO Dragon sculpture.

CLUE by South Australia LUG

This collaborative CLUE diorama from South Australia LUG was one of my personal favourites from the show. The intricately designed rooms elevate the concept of this design to a whole other level.

Blue Adventurer by Arthur Radziszewski

Blue Adventurer Interiors

I’m not exactly sure what this mechanical contraption is… but that’s the very reason why I like it. It’s got a bit of steampunk, without the cliche colour scheme and I think the solitary colour makes this stand out all the more.

Everytime I look at the Blue Adventurer, I constantly spot something I never noticed before.

Battle of Endor by Geoffrey Reid

Battle of Endor AT-AT

Another “trending” build this year is AT-ATs. I just like how lush and green this fantastic diorama of the Battle of Endor is, as well as the massive AT-AT. There was another gigantic AT-AT that I saw that was in the middle of being put together when I left. I kinda regret not seeing that one come together!

AT-ACT by Dayton Lovelock

More AT-ATs, this time the AT-ACT from Rogue One.

Ubiquitous Topography Unassailable Dreadnought by Baron Gavin von Crawford

That said, this was hands down my favourite AT-AT, this sensational steampunk AT-AT from Gavin Crawford. This is one of the best designs I’ve ever seen in all the Brickventions I’ve been to.

Ascending Descending by Michael Wilks

One of the cleverest builds in the entire show, Ascending Descending, a tribute to M.C. Escher’s Relativity blew my mind away. When viewed as is, it’s got a decent design, but nothing exceptional…

That is, until you view it from a specific perspective, via a little peephole, does this design’s genius reveal itself.

Albury Landmarks by Matthew Fankhauser

Albury Landmarks by Matthew Fankhauser

I’m not particularly familiar with the city of Albury but I really like how well designed these monuments were.

A New Rogue Strikes Back by Sean Brown and Teg Murden

A New Rogue Strikes Back Giant Death Star

This massive diorama, which mashed up scenes from all your favourite Star Wars movie was cool, mostly because of this supersized Death Star.

A Day in Paradisa by Paco Lira

This awesome homage to one of LEGO’s most beloved themes, Paradisa was all sorts of delightful. And made me want to start buying more Paradisa sets.

1962 Town Plan by Henry, Carmen, Campbell Watts

I really enjoyed getting to see, vintage (and I mean really vintage) LEGO on display. It jived really well with John Peddie’s talk.

You have to watch the video to see the extend of this display, but this year’s Great Ball Contraption (GBC) was amazingly cool, and I believe the biggest one yet.

Valley of the Wyvern Riders by Miranda

Valley of the Wyvern Riders

This Brickvention saw plenty of awesome LEGO Elves-inspired builds, but my favourite was Miranda’s design, the Valley of the Wyvern Riders, mostly because of the cool “tree-house” and her wyvern that she designed herself. It’s a fun, whimsical take on high fantasy. I also loved all the cats strewn around the build!

USS Enterprise by Michael Peebles

I’m not the biggest Star Trek fan, but that didn’t stop me from admiring this giant USS Enterprise by Michael Peebles, who leads the Bendigo LEGO User Group.

Transformers G1 Decepticons and HQ by Dion Whitehouse

If I didn’t collect LEGO, I think I would’ve gone down the equally as expensive route of collecting Transformers, one of my other childhood loves. This awesome build has two of my favourite Decepticons, Starscream and (I believe) Skywarp! Skywarp was my first ever Transformer toy and holds a special place in my heart.

TIE Rack by Admiral Gavin Crawford

Gavin Crawford, who was behind the steampunk AT-AT also gave us this delightful display that also doubles as a very clever play on words. A rack of TIE Fighters! I especially liked all the “themed” TIE Fighters, especially the Classic Space and Blacktron 1 TIEs.

The Gaze of the Cockatrice by Tim Jones & Danii Brighton

When it comes to sculptures, this was one of the best in the show. The model’s size and sense of scale were very impressive, especially when viewed in person.

The Gaze of the Cockatrice won the 3rd Best In Show award.

The Gate Room Star Gate Command by Robert Kingston

You can never go wrong with a Star Gate MOC at a convention that’s filled with inherently geeky people.

Street Machine by Kieran Chamberlain

I’m not that big of a Technic junkie, but I could’t help but be awed by this insanely detailed motorcycle. Again, one of those that I forgot to get the builders details of! This model won Best In Show at Brickvention 2017 and was thoroughly deserved!

Technic Cathedral by Liz Blackwell

Check out the sick roofing on this cathedral, as well as the stained glass windows.

Sully Miracle on the Hudson by Ryan Clewer

This relatively simple but effective model by Ryan Clewer, who was a under-16 builder was pretty fantastic, as it captured the climax of the Miracle on the Hudson which was immortalised in the recent movie Sully extremely well.

Steam Village by Simon Crocker

This idyllic Steampunk village caught my eye for two reasons, for the charming little snapshot of a lazy steampunk village, but most of all, for its excellent mix of colours and contrasts. One of the best uses of colour blocking in the entire show.

Space Mee Out Monorail by Emerson & Donna Mee

You can always count on some excellent Classic Space build, and this massive monorail layout by the Mees both impressed and made me supremely jealous, all at the same time.

Rainbow Tower by Pete White

The Rainbow Bricks LUG can always be counted to put on a fantastic display at Brickvention, and this Rainbow Tower totally stole the show this year with its multicoloured and intricate exterior.

Parthenon by Matthew Dadswell

I’m a bit of a Greek mythology enthusiast, so I really enjoyed this brilliant take on the Parthenon in its glory days.

Matthew Dadswell’s Parthenon won a Commendation Award.

Melbourne L Gauge Club Display

There are three things in life that are certain – Death, Taxes and a mind-blowing LEGO train layout courtesy of the Melbourne L Gauge Club every year at Brickvention. The co-ordination and effort to assemble these displays year after year just wrinkles my brain.

Micropolis

Last, but not least is the Micropolis build, which is a collaborative display by Brickvention exhibitors. Each year, it gets bigger and bigger. Micro-scale builds have a special place in my heart so it’s always a treat to see what Micropolis is like each year.


So yeah, another fantastic showing from Brickvention 2017! To view more photos that I took, be sure to check out my Facebook album which has more than double the photos here, including some other fantastic builds that I didn’t have the space to fit here!

All in all, I thought that it was another great showing from the Australian LEGO fan community. This year, there were less “mega” models or displays and there was a definite Ryan McNaught-sized hole (he’s off running his own shows around the country) but that didn’t detract from the overall experience at all.

Each year, it blows me away to see Australia’s LEGO fan community churn out designs that astound, entertain and enthrall me as a LEGO fan. This year, I think the younger under-16 builders have really stepped up their game and on many occasions are able to go toe-to-toe against more seasoned builders.

There was a lot more fun, and you could really feel the light-heartedness and love for the brick & minifigure channeled through some of the “smaller” builds and designs each year.

So much gets poured into these designs and displays each year that makes me feel very blessed to live in Melbourne and privileged to attend Brickvention for the 4th year running now.

That’s all for now and I hope you enjoyed the photos! If you were at Brickvention this year, I’d love to hear what you thought of the displays this year and which ones were your favourites. Let me know in the comments below!

To check out photos from previous Brickventions, you can also check out my writeups from 2016, 2015 and 2014 to see the best from Australian LEGO fans in previous years.

Thanks for reading!

    Thanks Jay, I was the coordinator for “Food For Thought” the “Swanky High Tea” and the lake area in the Micropolis was also mine, the one with the building made from Brick Separators 🙂 Yes the Micropolis is getting bigger and better each year, this was my first year exhibiting, next year Food for thought will display again with a new theme, and I’ll be making the lake Micropolis scene bigger and with more new buildings in it 🙂
    Micropolis is such an addictive scale, and by displaying in a group build you don’t have to invest a fortune in bricks to contribute and become an exhibitor 🙂
    Thanks again for the blog Mate 🙂

      Oh brilliant! The brick seperator building was really cool! It gave me a really cool Oriental vibe.

      The food displays were particularly delightful and I can’t wait to see what you guys come up with next! If you’re taking suggestions, I’d love to see a “World Cuisine” display!

    Great article Jay, and lovely photos. It is difficult to get decent photos with my iphone in the relatively low light and loads of people around. My personal overall favourite which is not in the list above was Le Tour de Lego by Pete Hayes and Xinlu Bai. I just loved the overall combination of pretty buildings and landscaping, the clever idea of having the bike race riding around on top of a hidden train, but especially the brick built cows. Such a small detail but one that also caught the attention of my kids and hubby who got to that table ahead of me.

    I also really enjoyed the halloween/ Scooby Doo/ Ghostbusters epic scene with so many cool details including the mad scientist making Frankenstein, the ghosts coming out of the crypt, witches having a spell party and many more wonderful little details. (Unfortunately I didn’t get the name of it).

    I love chatting to the creators about their displays too. Thank you to the organisers and contributors for all their hard work – I loved every minute of my visit.

      Thanks Alison! The lighting at the REB is also quite a challenge, and I had to trash a LOT of photos because they didn’t turn out as well as I’d like.

      I actually have a video of Le Tour de Lego, which I thought was pretty cute!

      Glad to hear that you had an awesome time. I can’t wait for 2018!

    What a fantastic article. I’m at the airport at the moment waiting for my flight back home after a lovely 4 days at Brickvention and this was a lovely recap and way to end the journey seeing what an outside eye thought. One thing though, I built the Hornreach Keep MOC (thank you for your kind words) but my name is spelt Costantin there’s no ‘n’. It’s a common mistake don’t stress. Here’s my Flickr like you mentioned 😉 https://m.flickr.com/#/photos/bencossy/

    Wow Jay, I’m not sure you missed anything!! Thought this year’s show was AWESOME!! Personal fave was the Great Ball Contraption which was 70% bigger than last year and was mind-blowing with all the technical movements, I could have watched it for hours. The Cockatrice and Starship Enterprise were also personal fave’s. Like each year I go round with a friend and towing along 3 kids between us is tiring as you’re trying to pick up the intricate details of the displays and chat to the designers whilst also ensuring the kids keep their hands off and don’t disappear due to their own excitement.
    I’m always amazed at the time a dedication these people put into their ideas and the sheer number of bricks some people own!!! Great show, and already looking forward to 2018.

      I’m pretty sure I did! I wish I had more time to capture some of the models close-up, as always there were so many tiny little details that made the builds so much fun!

      The GBC was awesome! At previous Brickventions, I’ve always found it challenging to walk around the entire thing, so I’m pretty glad I got a (shaky) video of the whole thing!

      Glad to hear that you and your entourage had a great time!

    Thanks for posting this report, it brings back memories of Brick Live I visited last year, in Birmingham UK. We are lucky as Birmingham is geographically centre of UK so reachable by most, I drove 2 hours myself to get there.
    I’m sure I recognise some of the models you saw, I’m sure they do the rounds of Brick shows 🙂

    Did anyone else see the TARDIS in one of the photos?

    • Pete says

      January 16, 2017 at 10:05 PM

      Yes the TARDIS appeared in many MOC displays this year – some were obvious and some a bit more hidden and subtle. Shows how many Lego fans are also Dr Who fans. I wonder if anyone will attempt a large size Tardis – maybe that opens up as well? Mouth watering prospect, isn’t it!? 🙂

      Yeah! Plenty of Tardis all around Brickvention! Doctor Who is pretty huge here!

Happy International @LEGO Day! The 28th of Januar Happy International @LEGO Day!

The 28th of January commemorates the date where the first patent for the iconic LEGO brick was filed with the Danish Patent and Trademark Office in Denmark by then-owner Godtfred Kirk Christiansen.

Here's a photo of the patent which is on display in the history section of the @legohouse, which I got to see last year when I visited Billund!

There's tons of incredible historical artifacts, and I've also shared some other displays that commemorated this part of LEGO's history!
