Also, BrickJournal tracks down some of the best builders of the past 50 issues--where are they now, and what are they building? Plus: AFOLs ("Adult Fans of LEGO") by cartoonist Greg Hyland, step-by step "You Can Build It" instructions by Christopher Deck, BrickNerd's DIY Fan Art, Minifigure Customization with Jared K. Burks, MINDSTORMS robotics lessons by Damien Kee, and more!
