We've seen plenty of crazy Lego re-creations over the years, from landmark architecture to vintage computers, but we can't help but be impressed when an entire movie is redone in bricks. That would be 1939 classic "The Wizard of Oz," which a team of 12 Lego builders has turned into a marvelous 3D plastic diorama that includes just about every scene in the film, including a rotating tornado. The collaborators from VirtuaLUG recently showed off the result of their teamwork at Brickworld 2013 Chicago, a display of spectacular Lego builds. VirtuaLUG has done displays including portrayals of "Alice in Wonderland" and "The Lord of the Rings." For its "Wizard of Oz" set, the 12 builders in three different countries worked on their components separately and then assembled them in Chicago. The display, at least 10 feet long, begins with a sepia-tone re-creation of Kansas, complete with a spinning tornado carrying Dorothy's house off to Oz. It then turns into a brightly colored array of bricks to simulate Munchkinland and the Yellow Brick Road, which leads away to show minifigs of Dorothy meeting the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, and the Cowardly Lion.
The road leads through the poppy fields to the Emerald City, an eye-popping build of the green metropolis. The display continues into the dark forest, which lights up with ultraviolet lights for an eerie glow, to the witch's castle, which has a detachment of Winkie guards on the bridge. It concludes back in Emerald City as Oz's balloon is about to launch. Check out Beyond the Brick's walk-through video of The Wizard of Oz display, which was named best collaboration at Brickworld, below.

EditHire a Hero Glitch Want to use a hero for more than 30 seconds? It takes a little bit of prepwork, but you most certainly can! Just find a spot nearby the area you wish to hire a hero where you need to hire a different hero, hire that hero first, and then before that hero's time limit runs out, switch to a different character and hire the one you want. The timer on the second character will run out, but you'll still be able to use them afterwards! It's a very helpful glitch indeed. Entering the build menu will also allow you to cheat their vehicle onto one of your vehicle bases if you wish.
Exiting the build menu, whether after cheating a vehicle in or not, will return the hero back to the one you used to perform the glitch.

Wave 1 totals up to around �200 and is available next week. Wave 2 is dated to arrive in December, before Wave 3 in January, Wave 4 in March and Wave 5 in May.And there's no end in sight - developer TT Games is currently planning to support Dimensions with new add-ons until at least 2018."We have a three year plan at the moment and we've got no intention of stopping there," associate producer Mark Warburton told Eurogamer during an interview conducted at EGX. "We've created the technology to the degree that we're happy it meets our needs for the future. We've created the toy pad so that it shouldn't need to be updated. And we can just create new level and character packs to keep expanding that."Collecting every single figurine, fun pack and level pack add-on will be nigh-on impossible for all but the most hardcore of Lego fans, but developer TT Games is confident that the starter offering will stand by itself even for those who don't go on to buy anything more."You can 100 per cent the game and get the Platinum trophy just from the base set.
People have been playing Lego games for 10 years now, and we shouldn't be offering anything less than that." :: Mario Kart 8 Deluxe - new Switch characters, battle mode and everything else we know As for the starter pack itself, and that �99 price, TT is happy with what's included."You get the game, you get the toy pad, you get 200+ odd level bricks. We think we're offering a lot of value with that and there's a lot of gameplay there. There's also a huge offering [of extra content] if you're a fan and want to get into that we support that. But if you're only a fan of particular thing you can only get that."Lego Dimensions' base set will include an array of characters banding together from across their respective franchises. Batman, Lord of the Rings, Doctor Who, Lego Ninjago, The Wizard of Oz, The Simpsons, Ghostbusters, The Lego Movie, Scooby-Doo and Jurassic World levels will all be included.One of the most exciting prospects for gamers will be the inclusion of characters and locations from Portal, in a tale set following the events of Portal 2."
