They say imitation is the truest form of flattery. Mimics might be my favorite D&D monster. Here’s a few tributes to these lovable horrors, from me and other Lego MOC designers.

First image: on the right, my first mimic attempt, using a Lego treasure chest. Goofy and unstable, like Daddy. On the left, Chris Maddison’s much cooler version of the same idea. @cmaddisoncreations

Second image: Christian Benito’s brick-built mimic. @brick_root

Third image: Taylor Walker’s brick-built mimic. @stayw

Fourth image: My ‘Spider Mimic’ variation on Taylor’s design.

Fifth image: My ‘Absolute Unit’ variation on Taylor’s design (followed by the classic illustration that inspired it).

Then all the Taylor Walker variations together.

Then some pictures of the whole happy family together!
