We've seen things like Lego Pokemon before, but few have taken character modeling to the extremes that one Mike Nieves has managed. Combining standard pieces with Lego Bionicle bits, Mike has created some truly outstanding plastic masterpieces here.

With the addition of more complex pieces compare to your average bricks, the Pokemon are not only insanely more detailed than they would otherwise have been, but are also fairly poseable as well! The amount of work that went into these beauties is nothing to scoff at either, ranging from nearly ten hours to forty in the case of Entei. Personally, my money's on Gyarados as the most impressive of the lot, but I'd kill for Lego to make these a reality!
