What an amazing build. I'd like to see what it looks like with some transparent bricks for splashes. I don't think such a large whale could breach the surface without causing some splashes. Thanks for all the awsome videos.
Great brick-built but minifig-ish scale whale! The angles are what make it so clever - in multiple places. The slightly discoloured items are hardly noticeable and actually might that not simply reflect that they are under the water? Loved it - we had a whale of a time watching. Thank you. 🐳
This is a great build! I'm quite impressed with everything you've designed for this big guy. He feels like an appropriate size, and love the jumping out-of-water angle going on. Awesome work!
Just coming out of my lego "dark ages" and have watched a lot of the "bigger names" on youtube. I'm from the UK and loving your channel, I feel like I'm in early on someone who will be bigger. Love your style, humour and always impressed with your MOC building skills.
Amazing!!!! Would love to see some splash wedges or even a brick built splash with trans pieces and some white even, showing the force with which he is breaching the surface...and then a small dingy with terrified occupants beneath his landing zone!
You have truly outdone yourself this time my friend. Great job. You know a few fishermen pointing with surprised faces at the bow of the boat is a requirement. I do like him turned a bit with more blue facing the viewer.
Your whale is amazing. He looks so majestic rising out of the water. By putting him in that spot it makes the Minifig with the pink swim ring even funnier. The cabinet is slowly coming along.
It's amazing builds like this that sets your channel apart from all the other Lego channels on RUclips. This build is spot on and you captured every little detail and shape of the whale fantastically. it add so much life to that level of the cabinet. Awesome 👌
I really like how you do it in the cabinet with magnets so you see both over and under the water both or the oil rig and the boats. And for the whale it was really amazing. It gives the entire scene so much life.
That is one of the best animal mocs I've ever seen. There was a great tiger moc that came out recently, but this stands up well with it, really amazing building here.
Whale I'll be darned! This build is b'reaching for the stars! It's a barnacle you were able to find all the parts you needed. You must be head-over-flop'pers excited for this in sea cabinet 😆👍 tooo many good puns to pass up on 😆
Absolutely brilliant MOC - looks spot-on, breaching like that... though I think you're right - he/she needs an effect of the 'water' around the breach to be churning
The whale 🐋 looks awesome. The pieces you used are perfect. Maybe put one of the crab 🦀 pots in the water with the floating bit with rope to the bottom and crabs 🦀 crawling over the cage?
Fantastic use of angles to show movement, it really highlights the benefit of the glass and magnets too as it looks great from all directions . A few added splashes will really add to the effect, but not sure if that will look odd from below the glass looking up
Wow amazing . The angle is just right and so are the proportions against the crab ship.👏👏👏 some splash would really show it off . May want a whale watcher in the crab ship. Well done 👍🏼
the whale looks great! here's an idea you can do: you can add waves to the top glass shelf with modge podge or glue. apply it to the top and then blow over it while it is wet to make the surface wavy
This is so awesome! I was thinking free willy but then it’s a different kind of whale. A small dingy with a man fearing for his life as the whale leaps over close to him would make for a funny scene 😄
Just next level wow... I have seen that happen for real and is one of my best experiences in life maybe. So from now on this is my favorite RHB build! Maybe a little obvious, but I would call him little John!
Wow such an amazing build my friend. I would love to get the instructions for this some day. It looks so realistic as to a real whale. I think you should name him George cause Gracie is in the harbor area. 😉 Fantastic video my friend 👍
That's an awesome effect! Well done! I also know the pain of finding dark blue piecies, I went trough it myself too fro my train builds (PKP IC loco and ČD wagons). Especially this eye-holder modified bricks, I went for switching to black because of the price.
Best brick built animal I’ve ever seen! Really impressive!I like the whale 🐋 Maybe a buoy marker on the surface with a chain that goes to the bottom might look good? Or submarine or divers. I guess the options are endless. Really great build, fun video to watch
Very nice job Robin. I wouldn't worry too much about some fading. Very few real animals are all one perfect colour. And I'm with you on the grey slope on the fin- adds definition
It’s a gorgeous build. I would definitely be on the side of adding water splashes, not only to the whale, but maybe also the front of the crab ship and around the base of the oil rig supports.
I agree the magnetics is very smart and where did you get backround from and how much did the cabinet cost? Does the cabinet stop dust too also well done on the moc it's looking absolutely amazing and you are a very talented builder and easy going funny person too
This is an amazing build, you could angle the flippers a little, if you edge the nearest one down and the furthest one away, whale tend to angle their flnns when they breach.
Holy cow, you have outdone yourself ! It's magnificent ! The scale, the shape, the motion... My only complain is when the fins are aligned with the camera, i can't unsee the giant living white and blue banana. But it's my fault. Thanks brain... 😭 Did you do some weight resistance tests with your magnets to see how much they can take ? Does the waiting between having an idea, sourcing all the needed parts almost one by one, and be able to finally built it isn't too frustrating ? November to april seems so long ! Anyway, i'm learning a lot with your MOCs building process throughout your videos. It really helps ! So, thanks again !
I Love your creativity and taste. The whale is just beautiful, I really can't get enough of him. (The angle is amazing) It would be funny if you add a kayak with shocked Passengers in it. I think the tail is a bit too small For an animal this Size, but still it's one of My favourite build so far :) Btw your humour is brilliant
Totally fantastic!!! You are a lego genius! We really enjoyed your creative work with the whale. This was such an enjoyable episode and what’s more you saved us the cost of a day’s whale watch tour!! BTW will Robin be giving medieval scuba diving lessons? - Anna and Des
Normally I don't tell people to submit their MOCs into Lego Ideas but this one needs to be. It is absolutely heads above any other brick built animal I have seen. Instead of the magnets you would have to add some more ball joints. I would suggest maybe building a second whale and having it swimming under the water to represent a real live whale pod.
Barnacles!!! Robin, you need barnacles. Some studs on the underside might do it. Oh and a blow hole with one of those water splash pieces if possible. Otherwise it's perfectly fine. It would go well with that shark set creator introduced 31088
looks great Robin and the parts you have yoused. great build. i got one from. that creator light house set with light up brick. the Waile in the set is cool to ...
I feel like he is missing some barnacles, I think the cupcake peices would make great barnacles. You could even name him Barnacle and call him Barney for short.
You'll need to have a small boat with some minifigures doing some whale watching, but they could be looking in the wrong direction with the whale behind them
Nice build What about doing a Hydrogen peroxide soaking bath in the sun for the discolored parts or the hole whale How about a joke, plankton (from sponge bob) jumping in front of him 😂
This is a great build! Do not bother to exchange the dark blue angled slope bits just because of a differing colour, as the slight variation in colour just adds to the organic feel of the creation (although if you think the eventual scratches of the used bricks are annoying just feel free to...). This also goes for the greyish joints between the flippers and the body - they are just fine nuances of colour to make the whole figure look that much more interesting and natural. I know that you usually don't care much about whether your additions to your city or other creations are natural-looking or not, but in this case it might just give that "wow"-effect...
Just looking at the thumbnail I thought "wow!" It's exquisite! I plan on building a whaling ship one day, so I might steal your whale design! (And add a harpoon or two to the back) Well done!! 🤘👌
You mention the tiny little sharks, but there is a larger shark that come out of a recently discontinued set. It's large enough to swallow a minifig and has a grip location on the back of the dorsal fin... Set 60266 consisting of parts 62605pb03 & 62604pb03
What an amazing build. I'd like to see what it looks like with some transparent bricks for splashes. I don't think such a large whale could breach the surface without causing some splashes. Thanks for all the awsome videos.
put a dingy with guys with scared faces right where he is going to splashdown. Would be very funny and make it more dense
Great brick-built but minifig-ish scale whale! The angles are what make it so clever - in multiple places. The slightly discoloured items are hardly noticeable and actually might that not simply reflect that they are under the water?
Loved it - we had a whale of a time watching. Thank you. 🐳
Probably the best thing i have ever seen someone create with Lego. This was awesome too watch!
Awww that's lovely. So glad you liked it. I also enjoyed this build a lot. So beautiful!
This is a great build! I'm quite impressed with everything you've designed for this big guy. He feels like an appropriate size, and love the jumping out-of-water angle going on. Awesome work!

Welcome aboard. Not sure about "being early" though, haha. Glad you're loving the channel, great to have you with us!
Amazing!!!! Would love to see some splash wedges or even a brick built splash with trans pieces and some white even, showing the force with which he is breaching the surface...and then a small dingy with terrified occupants beneath his landing zone!
You have truly outdone yourself this time my friend. Great job. You know a few fishermen pointing with surprised faces at the bow of the boat is a requirement. I do like him turned a bit with more blue facing the viewer.
Wow Robin. That Whale is amazing. I think, like you said, Moby Brick would be a great name !
I have the perfect name for the Whale Little John ! Nottingham needs a little John!
This is excellent! My suggestion for a name is Humphrey.
Your whale is amazing. He looks so majestic rising out of the water. By putting him in that spot it makes the Minifig with the pink swim ring even funnier. The cabinet is slowly coming along.
Another ingenious build from Robinhood bricks! Amazingly simple and surprisingly great!
It was really fun to design, build and position!
It's amazing builds like this that sets your channel apart from all the other Lego channels on RUclips. This build is spot on and you captured every little detail and shape of the whale fantastically. it add so much life to that level of the cabinet. Awesome 👌
I really like how you do it in the cabinet with magnets so you see both over and under the water both or the oil rig and the boats. And for the whale it was really amazing. It gives the entire scene so much life.
Impressive. Most impressive. A very worthy centrepiece, and no mistake.
Thanks a million!
That is one of the best animal mocs I've ever seen. There was a great tiger moc that came out recently, but this stands up well with it, really amazing building here.
Whale I'll be darned! This build is b'reaching for the stars! It's a barnacle you were able to find all the parts you needed. You must be head-over-flop'pers excited for this in sea cabinet 😆👍
tooo many good puns to pass up on 😆
Great way to display a MOC. I always wanted such a display as a kid. Maybe I'll finally try something like that one day
Thanks. I think it'll be very special when full!
Absolutely brilliant MOC - looks spot-on, breaching like that... though I think you're right - he/she needs an effect of the 'water' around the breach to be churning
Yes, when I have them in their final positions I will!
The whale 🐋 looks awesome. The pieces you used are perfect. Maybe put one of the crab 🦀 pots in the water with the floating bit with rope to the bottom and crabs 🦀 crawling over the cage?
Great idea but that's already in the plan. Extra crab pots with some surprises!
Fantastic use of angles to show movement, it really highlights the benefit of the glass and magnets too as it looks great from all directions . A few added splashes will really add to the effect, but not sure if that will look odd from below the glass looking up
This is an incredibly impressive build! All it’s missing is a boat of whale watchers getting absolutely soaked!
Wow amazing . The angle is just right and so are the proportions against the crab ship.👏👏👏 some splash would really show it off . May want a whale watcher in the crab ship. Well done 👍🏼
This whole display is awesome, i really cant wait to see more of this display. You are a very clever man robin.
Awww, thank you.
Hopefully it'll be worth all the pain of applying that backdrop, haha. That was tricky. I hope to do more here soon!
I found myself clapping at how good this looks! great job!
the whale looks great! here's an idea you can do: you can add waves to the top glass shelf with modge podge or glue. apply it to the top and then blow over it while it is wet to make the surface wavy
I’m not normally a fan of brick-built animals, but I must say this whale is magnificent Robin! He looks absolutely perfect!
This is so awesome! I was thinking free willy but then it’s a different kind of whale. A small dingy with a man fearing for his life as the whale leaps over close to him would make for a funny scene 😄
Just next level wow... I have seen that happen for real and is one of my best experiences in life maybe. So from now on this is my favorite RHB build! Maybe a little obvious, but I would call him little John!
Magnificent build. Maybe add some whale barnacles attached to the whale? Maybe some water splashing?
Looks fantastic! That cabinet is gonna be one of the most unique Lego things on RUclips
You mentioned a dinghy being taken out by the whale - could make a funny scene!
Wow such an amazing build my friend. I would love to get the instructions for this some day. It looks so realistic as to a real whale. I think you should name him George cause Gracie is in the harbor area. 😉 Fantastic video my friend 👍
Send me an email. Thanks so much!
This is so awesome. You have such amazing creativity.
I really don't know how to not sound like a kid but c he is AWESOME. Beautiful would be another good word I think. So very creative. THANKS.
Man the robin hog mini fig takes me back to my childhood
They are releasing an old Forestmen set later this month!
@@RobinHoodBricks I think it’s a GWP
Well worth the wait ☺️. I absolutely love this build. I vote for Wilbur the whale 🐋. How about a terrified fig in a canoe 🛶 right behind the breach 🌊💦
Thanks so much. Yes, I was thinking a small Greenpeace dingy or something, haha!
That's an awesome effect! Well done! I also know the pain of finding dark blue piecies, I went trough it myself too fro my train builds (PKP IC loco and ČD wagons). Especially this eye-holder modified bricks, I went for switching to black because of the price.
Best brick built animal I’ve ever seen! Really impressive!I like the whale 🐋
Maybe a buoy marker on the surface with a chain that goes to the bottom might look good?
Or submarine or divers. I guess the options are endless.
Really great build, fun video to watch
Very nice job Robin. I wouldn't worry too much about some fading. Very few real animals are all one perfect colour. And I'm with you on the grey slope on the fin- adds definition
Love it. Looks like he's leaping out of the cabinet! Think the name has to be Moby Brick
It’s a gorgeous build. I would definitely be on the side of adding water splashes, not only to the whale, but maybe also the front of the crab ship and around the base of the oil rig supports.
A super moc build Robin, looks outstanding 👏 👌
Such a brilliant build! Awesome content as always! 🙌😄
I love the technique you’ve used with the micro joints! I’m doing a nasa style ship and that technique will be perfect for what I want to do!
Cool, go for it with my best wishes. Glad it was useful!
Awesome build.
Since he's a Blue Whale, I'd call him Alan.
Absolutely stunning! Nat Geo Moment! 😊
Wow! You really have out done yourself, He is absolutely amazing.
I love ocean mocs we need more of them
We do, but this whale still makes me smile and look from all different angles every time I see him!
I agree the magnetics is very smart and where did you get backround from and how much did the cabinet cost? Does the cabinet stop dust too also well done on the moc it's looking absolutely amazing and you are a very talented builder and easy going funny person too
What a fan-tas-tic build!
14:15 Mrs Hood sold your ideas to Lego in exchange for Danish pastries! 😱
Magnificent…maybe a few popcorn pieces just next to the beast
Looks absolutely amazing, the only thing I would change is turn the pectoral fin inwards towards the belly so it looks more accurate.
This is an amazing build, you could angle the flippers a little, if you edge the nearest one down and the furthest one away, whale tend to angle their flnns when they breach.
That is a really cool whale. Keep up the great work.
Holy cow, you have outdone yourself ! It's magnificent ! The scale, the shape, the motion...
My only complain is when the fins are aligned with the camera, i can't unsee the giant living white and blue banana. But it's my fault. Thanks brain... 😭
Did you do some weight resistance tests with your magnets to see how much they can take ?
Does the waiting between having an idea, sourcing all the needed parts almost one by one, and be able to finally built it isn't too frustrating ? November to april seems so long !
Anyway, i'm learning a lot with your MOCs building process throughout your videos. It really helps ! So, thanks again !
A brilliant build and well worth the wait! It would be great if you could get a minifig skeleton and row boat in its stomach though!
Fantastic build! This is definitely one of your bests.
That's brilliant! A great combination of visually appealing yet also functional (ball-joints and the magnet trick).
I Love your creativity and taste. The whale is just beautiful, I really can't get enough of him. (The angle is amazing)
It would be funny if you add a kayak with shocked Passengers in it.
I think the tail is a bit too small For an animal this Size, but still it's one of My favourite build so far :)
Btw your humour is brilliant
This is magnificent!!
I absolutely love it, no suggestions. Brilliant. Love the angle.
Wow! I love benthic creations! I love this moc, it is very organic. Brilliant job Robin!😊
1 word: genius!
I wish I had an undersea cabinet so I could have a whale too. Beautiful build. Very creative use of bricks.
Totally fantastic!!! You are a lego genius! We really enjoyed your creative work with the whale. This was such an enjoyable episode and what’s more you saved us the cost of a day’s whale watch tour!! BTW will Robin be giving medieval scuba diving lessons? - Anna and Des
Awesome build. I think adding splashes will make it even more awesome.🙂
Normally I don't tell people to submit their MOCs into Lego Ideas but this one needs to be. It is absolutely heads above any other brick built animal I have seen. Instead of the magnets you would have to add some more ball joints.
I would suggest maybe building a second whale and having it swimming under the water to represent a real live whale pod.
The whale looks incredible!!! But the red ship should “sink” a bit more into the water if you can manage to do it.
Great job
Fantastic sea creature! It looks so good crossing between the two levels. 😍
Barnacles!!! Robin, you need barnacles. Some studs on the underside might do it.
Oh and a blow hole with one of those water splash pieces if possible.
Otherwise it's perfectly fine.
It would go well with that shark set creator introduced 31088
This is an amazing build, One of a kind.👍 it’s perfect size
looks great Robin and the parts you have yoused. great build. i got one from. that creator light house set with light up brick. the Waile in the set is cool to ...
That is so cool I can't wait to see what goes into the cabinet next
Wouw!!! What a beauty!!!! Well done!!!!
Great build Robin! I suggest you submit this to ideas. It would be a relatively small set for Lego but I am sure they would move forward on this one
Fantastic job Robin Moby Brick!
Wow, you are just brilliant!!
Awesome whale build! Make one or two more and submit it to Lego ideas.
great whale moc robin
I feel like he is missing some barnacles, I think the cupcake peices would make great barnacles. You could even name him Barnacle and call him Barney for short.
I tried 1x1 round plates with holes but they still looked too big!
And again, i´m very surprised by how little likes this video has, its a beautiful and no less very creative build
THAT IS A REALY PRETTY WHALE
sorry i had caps lock on
Cool. It looks great. Well done.
Good work Robin. You need to raid your sticker collection to see if theres anything barnicle-like for it's back 👍🏼
You'll need to have a small boat with some minifigures doing some whale watching, but they could be looking in the wrong direction with the whale behind them
Nice build
What about doing a Hydrogen peroxide soaking bath in the sun for the discolored parts or the hole whale
How about a joke, plankton (from sponge bob) jumping in front of him 😂
You should submit this to lego. Just a fantastic design.

I have a few of these too. Well, the older version with a slightly different print. They are awesome aren't they!
This build is amazing!!! Turned out so well!
It looks amazing, this video was amazing
Absolutely amazing!!!
Looks amazing! I could see this being a Lego set. Any plans to submit it on Lego Ideas?
Possibly. It'll need amending so it's not dependent on a glass shelf and magnets!
absolutely fantastic 👌
great build very fun!
Amazing you can also invert It with the tail on top and the head under the water and it would still be an amazing look
But you missed his blow hole you could call him Moby brick
He’s adorable! Can you name him Linda? It’s a running joke in my family.
