Built for the upcoming "New Hashima" collab at Brickworld Chicago 23.
To learn more about the collab, be sure to check out photos/videos from the Brickfair VA '22 display of the "New Hashima" led by Stefan Formentano.
Per my Docksider Brewery post, I'm excited to be taking part in the New Hashima cyberpunk city collab that is planned for Brickworld Chicago 2023. This is the second "cube" that I have built for it (the standard modules that make up the sub-layers of the city-scape). I had been wanting to build something to showcase some of my speederbike builds, and this cube idea started from the idea of having an Octan charging station for them (thus the brick-built electrical plug sign). Then I had the idea for adding a noodle shop onto the roof, and wanted to make it look like it was added on after the fact.

This is the third "cube" that I have built for the upcoming "New Hashima" collab at BW23 (the standard modules that make up the sub-layers of the city-scape). Per my last post, I had been wanting to build something to showcase some of my speeder bike and tachikoma (think tank) builds. I had wanted to build a repair garage for them both, so that is exactly what I did. I also wanted the garage to look like it had an addition built onto it, which is why I have the contrasting styles (concrete for the tachikoma garage vs. brick/mortar for the speederbike repair platform).

My second contribution to the gigantic New Hashima cyberpunk city display at Brickworld this year was this cube with a sports theme.

Built for the gigantic New Hashima cyberpunk collab that took place at Brickworld this year, this is my take on what Ikea might evolve to in a future cyberpunk city. Inspiration for the build also came from the Ikea city store that has been built in Vienna, Austria.
I'm excited to be part of the New Hashima City collab, coming to Brickworld Chicago next week. This is my 6th and final car for the freight train that will be running around the docks. I envision it as a futuristic version of a rail crane.
This is loosely based on my original plan for the hopper car, before that went off in a completely different direction. Had I stuck with this design for the hopper it would probably be a bit deeper and not raised so high off the tracks, but otherwise similar, less the arm.
This, like the hopper car, was a stretch goal. While I was mindful of the rapidly approaching deadline with this one, having all my commitments completed I could afford the time to give it some extra attention to detail. As such, these two are my favorites.
The rock star of the hopper car was the new D-SNOT brick, without which some of the geometry would have been very difficult to pull off in a manner sturdy enough to survive constant bouncing around while the train was in motion. I went through something like 90 of them. With this one, it was the humble video camera brick that's been around since the 80s, without which the claw would have been next to impossible.
Thank you Ted Andes for the suggestion of building something robotic as a caboose.

A personal favorite module for my LEGO Cyberpunk modular display NEW HASHIMA. Inspired by the Nakagin Capsule Tower in Tokyo, Japan. An iconic example of Japanese metabolism architecture.

Welcome to NEW HASHIMA(端島) - Sector 08. Built on the remnants of the old Hashima Island mining colony after over population forced consideration of innovative development options. Sector 08 is home to middle through upper-class citizens of NewHashima and holds many of the more beautiful structures found in the island mega-city.

I'm excited to be part of the next iteration of the New Hashima City collab, coming to Brickworld in 2023.This is the 5th completed car for the freight train that will be running around the docks. It was inspired by concept art by Paul Adams on Artstation, and came out closer to the original concept than is typical for me, whether the concept is my own sketch or someone else's art.
I started this car with the intent of making a smaller one, and yet at almost 2lbs it is the biggest and heaviest in the entire train.
This car, and the next, were stretch goals for me, since the 4 I built already would have been enough. As such, both received particular attention to details since I did not have to worry about not finishing my commitments for the collab. As a result, they are my favorites of the 6.
I'm excited to be part of the next iteration of the New Hashima City cyberpunk collab, coming to Brickworld Chicago 2023. I started with train cars, then a cube, and things always escalate with me, so now I've built two of them. Like the first, this one belongs in the docks (aka sector 6, hence the giant 06 on the side), and the large strut on the front (similar but not quite identical to the strut on my first) will support one of the landing pads on Alec Doede's cube above. I envision this as a slightly seedy seller of robot parts of questionable origin. As an Easter Egg, though, the display in the window features the classic M:Tron and Blacktron droids, as these were probably the two most influential Lego space themes of my childhood. I spent a lot of time going crazy on the details on this one, since with time constraints being what they are I probably won't finish a third. In particular I put an inordinate amount of effort into upping my decomposing concrete game, especially on the right side (not shown in the main photo).

This little craft is a re-imagining of the Cargo Critter that I build back in 2020, transformed into a cyberpunk rust bucket. This took the majority of my final weekend of building for the New Hashima City collab coming to Brickworld Chicago, as in spite of being based on an older MOC, much of it is redesigned entirely to capture the cyberpunk aesthetic. This one was challenging because I had to create the shaping of the original from my limited selection of sand green, since it was unlikely anything I ordered from Bricklink would make it on time. I wound up using weathering to replace parts I didn't have, or in some cases didn't exist, in sand green. I might have been a bit more subtle with it if I'd had time to order what I needed, but I think in context the extensive rust does work.
So you may have seen photos/videos from Brickfair VA '22 of the "New Hashima" cyberpunk city collab led by Stefan Formentano. If you missed out on seeing it in person like I did, exciting news. The collab is coming to Brickworld Chicago in 2023!... and plans are for the city to be 4x bigger and better than ever!
I'm excited to be taking part in the expanded collab, and have already started building some "cubes" for it (the standard modules that make up the sub-layers of the city-scape). This is the first one that I started and it will go in the Industrial Docks sector. I intended on just building industrial storage tanks for this, but one thing led to another and it turned into a brewery. Still a bit of fine tuning to do (i.e. pay no mind to the bent pipes), but overall the kegs have been tapped and it's ready for business. Cheers!
I'm excited to be part of the next iteration of the New Hashima City cyberpunk collab, coming to Brickworld Chicago 2023. I started with train cars, but things always escalate with me, so now I'm building a couple of the cubes that make up the foundation of the city. This one actually started as a train car hauling a big engine, but it evolved into a maintenance shop that will serve the spacecraft landing at the docks. The large strut on the front will support one of the landing pads on Alec Doede's cube above. I'll replicate that same structure for my second cube with some little variations. Thankfully I had the foresight to recreate it in stud.io as I built so I don't have to rip it apart to reverse-engineer it.
I took some inspiration from Inthert's excellent Repair Yard build for the scene inside, and while I made a deliberate effort to make mine very different, particularly with the grittier cyberpunk vibe, that's what got my gears turning.
The engine has one of my most outlandish parts usages ever, although you'd never know by glancing at it. The brown band around just in front of the exhaust nozzle is an old Fabuland table.
I've only been able to estimate the parts count on my MOC's when asked, and always wondered if I was overestimating. Building the digital model of the strut I discovered that I'm probably not, as that alone has almost 1,500 parts.
Disclaimer: the broken reddish brown tiles I used for the fence all broke by natural causes, most while working on one of my train cars.

This retro Sheh-V Trail Chief has been heavily modified for New Hashima’s illegal street racing club. With an enhanced fuel and cooling system, reinforced windows, and a second-gen CrashCon module spliced into the front windshield, this truck is outfitted to smoke the competition like none of its ancestors could have ever dreamed of.

Welcome to NEW HASHIMA (端島), an urban landscape born from the ashes of the once-thriving Hashima Island mining colony. In a world teetering on the edge of cybernetic revolution and rampant overpopulation, this neon-lit megalopolis emerges as a gritty testament to society’s desperate pursuit of innovative development.

My contribution for the #newhashima collab at Brickworld last month!
I was so thrilled when I got the opportunity to build for the collab! I knew with Simon and Stefan leading the charge, the project would be legendary.
My cubes included a pachinko parlor, garage, boba stand, karaoke bar, and an apartment complex.

It's not really readable from this angle, but the poster on the column to the left of the entrance says "lost robot," and if you look really, really closely in he front entrance, that same robot's head is on a shelf for sale.

Extraction Theory is a café located in the upper levels of New Hashima's Old City. Its convenient location near Sector 04's first train stop makes it a common stop for commuters, chromed-up body mod enthusiasts, and people who just like a good cup of coffee while taking in the sights of New Hashima.

This was one of my contributions to the New Hashima collaboration at BrickWorld Chicago 2023. I've always wanted to build a café, and creating something to fit within the cyberpunk design language of New Hashima was a neat challenge. I'd already had the experience of building my cyberpunk topper, and I feel like this is a much more refined final build for that reason.

This is my tower for a to-be-determined cyberpunk collab, either another sector of New Hashima City, or one of its offshoots, whichever I get to first. I did not build it with any specific convention or collab in mind, but now that it's done I will find one. :) I started building almost immediately after the big layout at Brickworld Chicago 2023, and finished about 1.5 years later. This build tested my patience to the core. It was an enormously labor-intensive build, and I had to spend crazy hours building to finish in the timeframe that I did--my record was 20 hours in a single day.
The Hashimacorp Tower is the headquarters of Hashimacorp Cybernetics, a futuristic evil megacorporation. What goes on inside is known to few; few even dare to go near the foreboding tower. The sidewalks around it are largely deserted, as even those who dare to work here come and go via the landing pad midway up.
It stands at 5'8" tall, making it 2 inches taller than I am. The antenna beacon on the top is about an inch from the ceiling when it's on my building table, so that was really the upper limit for how big it could get. I could have moved it to the floor, but I would have inevitably kicked the lower floors to pieces while working on it. It separates into 6 modules, so I did not have to build on a stepladder most of the time.
The tower has working elevators--see the video in this album or Instagram reel.
WIP photos are on Instagram.
One of many excellent views of @vexpix and my LEGO cyberpunk project. Really happy how this iteration came out. We received tons of great feedback at Brickfair AL and we’ve already begun to put plans in place for the next show. Look forward to updates and more content as I have time to edit. Stay tuned cyberpsychos!

This Cube was part of the New Hashima (端島) collab displayed at Brickworld Chicago in 2023.
My second remix for the #NewHashima collaboration at #Bricktastic was a beloved #Town set from 1983.
‘Delivery Van’ (6624) only had 41 parts, but (mail) bags of personality!
Once again I’ve added a hoverbike in an attempt to take it back to the future.
The wee robin is a reference to Victorian times, where posties were called robins due to their bright red uniforms.

New Hashima Chicago
|06 Docks|02 Inner City|04 Old City|
New Hashima - Chicago
As we round out the year and look back, I realized we didn't actually post some edited shots of the thing I spent ... well basically the last year and more working on ... .along with Stefan and a massive team of 80 people we created New Hashima - a massive Cyber City.
I've seen and been a part of a lot of amazing builds and collaborations over the years, but I have never seen anything like this in the community. At 20x20 feet, and upwards of 13 feet tall, this thing was not just a massive build - but each builder put their hearts and soul into their portion creating a real breathing city, including so many angles and sections that couldn't possibly be seen on the layout.
This collab was so large it was basically organized as four separate collabs that fit together in a three pronged configuration:
02 - Inner City - The powerful and elite city core, which served as the center , where each of the following connected lead by Stefan
04 - Old City - a crumbling and seedy city center run by Mike
06 - Docks - Space Port and industrial super complex run by Simon
08 - Corpo - the original BFVA 22 New Hashima sector run by Stefan
So here's some cleaned up photos for those that missed it.
Special thanks to Blake Foster for taking Photographs, Stefan for the shiny new logo and Waffles for the cool background.
Zoom in for super close up views
Final #NewHashima MOCs are these wee bikers. The Jetson family are a modified version of my OG hoverbike, with added space babies.
The mysterious white rider was designed by Big Brother (BB), he named her Bonnie Darko.

’ , @newhashimacollab ( ) @brickingbavaria !
When I joined the collaboration, I set out to design a cube unlike any other. Rather than concealing the frame and pillars, I chose to showcase them as defining features! This led me to the idea of creating a mostly open cube, contrasting with traditional designs. Inspired by a recent trip to Singapore, I decided to incorporate a fountain as a central element to capture some of this city unique character.
In aiming to encapsulate the essence of urban life, I wanted the build to reflect both the prosperity and the societal challenges—like wealth disparity, grime, and crime—that my home city share. And, of course, I couldn’t resist adding a few hidden French-themed Easter eggs. How many can you spot?

I designed this #PostOffice #Hoverbike for the #LegoIdeas challenge 'Twist of Nostalgia'. Sadly, it didn't make the Fan Vote stage, but I still love this wee MOC!
It's based on set 6651 ‘Post Office Van’ from 1982 - it only had 47 parts, but (mail) bags of personality!
P.S. You may have spotted this build at #Edinbrick where it was part of our ‘Neo Edinbara’ (#NewHashima) collaboration.

New Hashima (Sector 22) at Bricking Bavaria 2024.
My Nakano camera corner version 2 and SEGA cube.

This is my cube from the BrickWorld Chicago 2023 New Hashima.
The smell of stale sweat and cigarettes permeate the LAFCorp hotel and bodega - a long standing fixture for faded foodies and fools with their heads stuck in SIM sets. Out front, a hired gun looks for his mark. Around back, a couple of substance “distributors” await for a respectable customer to arrive, just a few feet away from a poorly secured server panel. In the alleyway, by the bodega’s backroom exit, a young girl plays with her holographic cat. Down from the hotel entry stumble 3 of the aforementioned faded foodies, one of which just received a surprising text.
For the chummers that don’t want to take their dinner out of a box and stuff it into a microwave, just under the hotel stairwell is RadioRamen, where someone else will take your dinner out of a box and stuff it into a microwave. The owner of RadioRamen insists the name is because he has a radio playing in his booth, but many suspect that both the name, and his iconic glowing noodles, are derived from a more “active” kind of radio.
New Hashima Sector Si - Under a bustling highway, Si-Corp has set up some luxury Si-Blocks that overlook the waterway for our super valued workers drones to enjoy some of the high life the Simon Exces do.
You can own this by going to Creations for Charity!
It's your chance to own a bit of New Hashima history - a special collaboration between @si_mocs and @simon-mocs. You can own a vehicles and Si-Blocks used in New Hashima in Chicago and other cons - with a new custom bridge diorama.
Buy Si-Block 1 and Si-Block 2 and get a lighting upgrade ... and an extra surprise!
Note: Some reassembly will be required - or can be delivered in person to the following conventions: Bricktastic (Manchester), Atlanta Brick Con, Brickworld Chicago, Brickfair Virgina, Bricks in the Six (Toronto), or Bricking Bavaria
