Japanese Artist Creates Superb Mecha Creatures Out of LEGO Bricks

If you don’t know what “mecha” means, here’s the definition: “The term mecha may refer to both scientific ideas and science-fiction genres that center on giant robots or machines controlled by people. Mechas are typically depicted as humanoid walking vehicles.”

Btw, if you’ve seen Godzilla or Pacific Rim… you’ve seen a mecha. They’re the massive robots that fight the kaiju. And a Japanese artist named Mitsuru Nikaido is taking the mecha game to a new level with the mecha creatures he makes out of LEGO.
