Bricks Culture issue 6 out now
Posted by Huw,
Here's the press release:
For issue 6 of Bricks Culture, the LEGO pop culture magazine for adults, we have taken a stronger focus on community.
We visit the amazing Fan Weekend in Portugal, Cole Blaq reveals how the Street Art community intersected with LEGO art in the late 2000s, Chris Phipson explains his MOCOlympics and MOCAthalon online building competitions, Huw Millington describes the community of the 1990s and how his site Brickset.com grew from this and we also look at BrickLink.com from the perspective of a seller, Cora’s Creations.
Of course, we always have plenty of beautiful LEGO art for you to enjoy including exclusive commissions from our two Guest Artists; Joe Perez reveals his first work for us and Tyler Clites (Legohaulic) returns with chapter two of his charming series, Daydream Adventures. Ben Andrews discusses the symbolism woven into his award-winning model The Observer-Tree and Stuck in Plastic explain why you should always take your minifigure on holiday.
Once again, we embrace the diversity of the LEGO world by speaking to Californian animator James Morr (SpastikChuwawa), Gary Davis lifts the lid on LEGO Serious Play and, in the concluding part of our interview, we ask LEGO Senior Designers Mark Stafford and Jamie Berard about the company’s darkest days.
There’s much more to enjoy in issue 6, so get your slice of LEGO life with Bricks Culture magazine: 140 pages of luxurious, fascinating and beautiful insights into the modern world of LEGO creation and innovation delivered to you every quarter.

Looks like another great issue! Can't wait to get my copy in the next few days!
Nice picture of Helen and Cora, they're always so friendly and lovely to chat to at events :-)
I definitely now always intend to take some Lego with me on holiday, it's just whether I remember! Hopefully going to Disneyland Paris in November and must remember to take Disney figs to snap some pics of them in their natural habitat!
I should mention that part of the "much more to enjoy in issue 6" is a great article by Lost in Translation about displaying at shows!
