Built after the template of Punk Crab, Cacti and the Frustracean, all who had a specific theme; here is a plain vanilla crab using that format. Built for Time for Crab 2025!

 

Open all of July, Time for Crab invites everyone to build and share crustacean creations - all who contribute enter a raffle for a signed copy of 40781 Badnik: Crabmeat!

"Carcinisation is a form of convergent evolution in which non-crab crustaceans evolve a crab-like body plan. The term was introduced into evolutionary biology by Lancelot Alexander Borradaile, who described it in 1916 as "the many attempts of Nature to evolve a crab."

 

---

 

It is now Time for Crab 2026! The crustacean celebration has evolved, and grown a vestigial contest - the Carcinisation Competition! Nature keeps trying to re-evolve crabs, and while the phenomenon isn't quite as pervasive as the internet would have you believe, it is still super cool, and applicable to MOCs! If animals keep turning into crabs, why not LEGO sets and themes?

 

This time for crab, you can enter the contest for a chance to win a copy of 31385 Beautiful Dolphins, a Creator 3in1 set... that you can rebuild into a crab as an alternate model! The set has been kindly signed by the model designer, Jared.

 

Your task? Reimagine, rebuild and represent a specific LEGO set, entire theme, or anything recognizably related to the hobby as a crustacean, and post it here on Flickr with the tags 'timeforcrab' and 'crabcompetition' between the 1st and 31st of July. Please use both tags for contest entries! I will be joined by Maxx 'mmbmaxx' Davidson in judging the entries.

 

As always, all crustaceans are valid, so if you want to participate in the crustivities but *not* the contest, we welcome all crabby creations with open claws. Feel free to use the 'timeforcrab' tag and leave out the competition one. The more the crustier!

 

In the meantime, a pair of Competitor Crabs have started a contest of their own...

Second build for #timeforcrab 2025! I'll have a more serious one next...

This crustacean was built for the #tealsquadron display which is set on an ocean planet, so of course it needed some sea creatures. Compared to a minifigure it’s a giant lobster – the fauna in Star Wars tends to be intimidating. Currently it’s #timeforcrab in the building community but hopefully #timeforlobster isn’t too much of a sideways move.

My contribution to this year's #Timeforcrab, and the second build in my Iron Builder round against Loïc, with the Technic rotation joint cylinder in med. azure as a seed part.

 

The seed part was used once!

There is still plenty of time to enter the Carcinisation Contest! Just reimagine, reinterpret and rebuild any LEGO set, theme or other icon recognizable to AFOLs everywhere and post with the tags #timeforcrab and #crabcompetition to enter for a chance to win a signed copy of 31385 Beautiful Dolphins! The contest runs until the end of the month.

Another #TimeForCrab entry using one of my favorite pieces as inspiration!

Hey! These were built back in 2019. I think they were meant to go with my bigger crab.

 

Not much time for building Lego these days but I haven't given it up yet. And I'm itching to edit my backlog of photographed stuff. Baby steps.

This #TimeForCrab settle down with a rich and full-bodied red that has some wonderful legs.

One of the few peaceful denizens of the Pit, the Karauna have no natural predator. Matoran researchers have found evidence pointing to latent psychoactive abilities compelling any living being in close proximity to either leave the Karauna alone, or regard it as a friend.

 

The species gained a reputation for having a comically naive disposition, as they have no fear response but are naturally curious. The golden protrusion above their eyes earned them the nickname "kings of the Pit".

Second build for #TimeForCrab with a little crabby cabbie driving!

It's Time For Crab again!

Meet the greedy Mr. Krabs and his loyal employee Spongebob.

Don't underestimate these little guys, while their claws aren't yet ready for throwing devastating punches, their speed can easily knock over the most vigilant Toa and Matoran, even their bite can be particularly vicious.

 

TIME FOR CRAB YEAR 2

Last year I made the white/orange Manas crab and he was very well received, this year I made the black/yellow variant to go alongside his menace of a sibling.

Just don't dig straight down...

The Minecraft 2023 Mob Vote Crab, my second favourite Mob that was robbed- I mean that lost the Mob Vote, right behind the Copper Golem (which inspired my other moc CU-29).

Made for the Time For Crab community collab!

(Thank you a9 for the large claw design, genuinely put my design to shame)

Though he walks sideways, this Dark Hunter is a straightforward brute. Slow on land, but on the seabed, he’s both unstoppable force and immovable object.

TIME FOR CRAB

(I've waited so long to say that )

Turaga Teridax was already against having a hyperactive miniature Manas crab racing around the catacombs of his hideout under the island, let alone the second that appeared not long after. But alas, seeing how his sons have grown so close to these little pests, he couldn't bring himself to banish them. He really cares too much for his sons.

This build is pulling double duty as my contribution to Kaijune and as the kickoff for Time for Crab 2025!

 

This year's Time for Crab crustacean collaboration open to all builders takes place during the month of July. Anyone and everyone is invited to build and post crabs, crab-adjacent MOCs, crustacean-inspired objects or vehicles; anything that's recognizably crabby.

 

If you post your crab between the 1st of July and 31st of July with the 'timeforcrab' tag here on Flickr or on Instagram, you'll enter a raffle. When the time for crab draws to a close, we'll randomly pick one contributor to receive a copy of 40781 Badnik: Crabmeat from the LEGO Sonic the Hedgehog lineup, kindly signed by the designer Maxx Davidson.

 

It is time for crab!
