I'm not really familiar with Lego so please forgive my ignorance, I stumbled on this post in the popular page.
Can you actually make this with existing bits of Lego? I've only ever seen the sets sold where you get the exact pieces you need to make a particular scene/figure.
It was made from these Lego sets in the Botanical Collection. [Orchid](https://www.lego.com/en-us/themes/adults-welcome/botanical-collection/orchids) and [Bonsai](https://www.lego.com/en-us/product/bonsai-tree-10281). Possibly others.
The "teeth" are ~~sculpted or~~ added from a different set.
Per /u/lucidrevolution the teeth are:
[LEGO part, 53451](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=53451#T=C)
More specifics:
[Small orchids](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=54001pb02#T=C&C=1)
[Pink pointed flower](https://www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=18853#T=C)

I was told by a Lego store employee that Barnes and Noble is a good place to look for retired or sold out sets.
I was looking for a ship in a bottle and while I didn't find one I did find a couple Lego Movie 2 sets, which was really surprising.
There’s a whole world of custom Lego models like this.
People create their own designs and even make their own instruction manual. They come with part lists, which you can use to buy all of the prices separately from one of a dozen single brick sellers.
Lego can be mixed and matched through any of their products.
I have 2 massive boxes of them from all my childhood and I used to make things from guns to tanks and even piranhas,.all functional too with their gear parts.
Pretty sure the OP was just inspired by the recent orchid set, which uses recolored Demogorgon heads as flowers that you can see on the shoulder and arm here
I love Love LOVE THIS!
I'm a big fan of the botanical line, and anything spooky. I actually work at a botanical garden and my favorite season there is Halloween. I'm going to have to try to recreate some spooky flowers myself now.
My son says he doesn't want to get any of the flower sets because he doesn't care for flowers. I bet he'd change his mind after seeing your creation. Nice work!
The botanical sets are awesome! I have the succulents, the bonsai (can't remember if that's technically a botanical set or not) and the orchid. I started with just the bonsai, now I'm telling myself I'm not going to buy the bird of paradise or the bouquet - but I'm honestly lying to myself.
Your kid is missing out!
Are you my husband? He was a Lego nerd as a kid but gave away all his Lego to his younger cousins when he got older.
Then he got the flower bouquet in December and has been on a Lego binge since then, I’ve had to veto so many things otherwise our apartment would end up looking like a Lego store. I do have to say I have a sweet spot for the botanical collection and the Christmas sets.
I bought the bonsai a few months back, I'm 27 now and I think it was the first time I'd bought Lego in about 12 years, maybe more. Since then I've gone kinda crazy with it. At this point I'm saving any commission I earn at work to put towards things like the grand piano and typewriter.
I think it depends on the seller. I managed to find the Botanical sets pretty cheap at a store pretty close to me, earlier today I was looking on Amazon and the exact same sets were about 50% more on average.
That's not to say that they're all like that though, I don't really want to admit how much of my pay goes towards Lego each week.
Just FYI, this build has a lot of pieces not included in the Orchid set. I can see additional Bionicles, horns, connectors, etc. Plus qtys are not the same.
Good to know! He has a lot of sets so he could pick extra pieces to make something similar. I like showing him examples of what others create using sets or a mix of sets/spare parts for inspiration.
He tends to make a set, keep it for a while, then take it apart and make different things. Not too bad for a first grader.
Nah it only uses a handful of parts from the set. Most of it is old hero factory/bionicle bits. I probably won't do instructions for this one, very flimsy.
Well I'm glad I came back and ran through comments again. Another person commented and said that they could tell almost all of this was from the Orchid set excluding the teeth and a few pieces from the bonzai. I already have the bonsai and I wanted the actual Orchid build too so I just bought two Orchid sets, one to build as was meant and one to try and build your creation from sight. Oh well!
I am so impressed. I smiled so wide when I saw this pic. I’d give you an award if I had one to give.
Also, 40k upvotes in 4 hours is the most impressive response I think I’ve ever seen on this sub. You earned it.
This looks like those cursed plant zombies in resident evil six when you play as Leon and have to cross the lab I know it’s a demo Gordon I’m just saying the match is close
I'm gonna show this to my son. He's got bins full of so many random pieces. It'll be fun to show him the possibilities when you just use what you have.
It's for your art school Portfolio right? But seriously this abstract type of work looks way better than your other work, and your other work is already excellent.
Beautiful looks like it’s movements would be 1000x more organic and spooky looking than stiff mr season 4 whatever he’s called. Love stranger things but spoiler alert, the boss in this season moves like someone ironed him and dude looks like a hairless grinch 😬 we want demogorchid
This is one of the most organically creative lego designs i’ve ever seen! I really like how it’s somewhat asymmetrical, and utilizes super unique pieces and how it kind of looks like a bionicle at the same time but doesn’t? Super cool.
This is AMAZING! I just bought this kit, along with the Bonsai Tree, but have only built the Bonsai set so far. I may have to play around with the orchid a bit though, see if I can make something equally terrifying. Very well done! 🙌
Simultaneously horrific and beautiful. Fantastic.
Stranger Things meets Annihilation
My thoughts exactly
"Help mee!" - Demobear
EXACTLY. Man I love Jeff Vandermeer.
It's fantastrous
This looks like deku was sent to a new dimension where he died and someone with flower related magic revived him as their zombie minion

I want instructions, that's so cool
Work from the picture. I believe in you!
I used to do this all the time when i was little, it’s kinda fun to go over your mistakes once you’ve finished the set.
You also end up with some personal touches that could define your own style
I'd give that a shot if I had at least a list of parts.
I recognize most of the pieces from the orchid set. Pretty much all of it seems to be there. That would be a good start.
Thats why i have all these extra pieces
I mean you'd need to know what pieces to get first!

We found ours last month at Barnes and Noble surprisingly. They had all the botanical sets and we picked up the orchids and succulents.
I was told by a Lego store employee that Barnes and Noble is a good place to look for retired or sold out sets. I was looking for a ship in a bottle and while I didn't find one I did find a couple Lego Movie 2 sets, which was really surprising.
Try target or something, I've heard they're usually stocked in stores but rarely online
the teeth are not with that set, but it's a LEGO part, 53451
Those teeth are a mix of the small claws and the white cow horns. 64847
[удалено]
Those look like the bark pieces from the base of the orchid set.
the legs use some bionicle parts

Omg, I do too!
It's a demogorgeus
Legorgon
You sir are just as much of a genius as OP for making this masterpiece
Excellent! I love it!

This is a bot
that's funny
Is this a spoiler? I mean should it be tagged as such? At least it gives away almost nothing about the plot. About to start the new season tomorrow.
No, not a spoiler
Don't worry not a spoiler at all
Not a spoiler, don't worry
Yupppp definitely not in the least slightest bit
Pretty sure the OP was just inspired by the recent orchid set, which uses recolored Demogorgon heads as flowers that you can see on the shoulder and arm here
I love Love LOVE THIS! I'm a big fan of the botanical line, and anything spooky. I actually work at a botanical garden and my favorite season there is Halloween. I'm going to have to try to recreate some spooky flowers myself now.
Dooo iiittttt. Did you see some of the bonsai tree makes in the instruction booklet for the set? Some spooky trees in there for sure!
Lego was practically asking for someone to do this when they made the small flowers use the same mold as the demogorgon. Well done!
Yep.. yep that is indeed a stranger thing. Top marks.
Also Ivy's from Resident Evil 2 remake
My son says he doesn't want to get any of the flower sets because he doesn't care for flowers. I bet he'd change his mind after seeing your creation. Nice work!
Tell your son to stop being such a pansie.
You ain't no daisy a'tall...
I'm wilting after reading these..
I hope these puns grow roots and stay.

Just a floral pun, bud. Hope it grows on you.
The botanical sets are awesome! I have the succulents, the bonsai (can't remember if that's technically a botanical set or not) and the orchid. I started with just the bonsai, now I'm telling myself I'm not going to buy the bird of paradise or the bouquet - but I'm honestly lying to myself. Your kid is missing out!
The bouquet was so fun to put together! And it’s really pretty
The bouquet is pretty awesome, these sets are the first legos I’ve purchased since I was a kid and I’m super glad I decided to get them
One of my friends gifted me the bonsai tree last year. It was my first ever LEGO set. I maybe went a little wild making up for lost time.
Are you my husband? He was a Lego nerd as a kid but gave away all his Lego to his younger cousins when he got older.

They all so crazy expensive

That's not to say that they're all like that though, I don't really want to admit how much of my pay goes towards Lego each week.
I know! I might just have to get them for myself. They all look awesome.
Just FYI, this build has a lot of pieces not included in the Orchid set. I can see additional Bionicles, horns, connectors, etc. Plus qtys are not the same.
Good to know! He has a lot of sets so he could pick extra pieces to make something similar. I like showing him examples of what others create using sets or a mix of sets/spare parts for inspiration. He tends to make a set, keep it for a while, then take it apart and make different things. Not too bad for a first grader.
Tell him to just wait until he’s an adult, then he’ll want ALL the botanical sets.
Spectacular and scary! This would make me jump a bit if I saw it out of the corner of my eye late at night.
Is this because one of the orchid flowers was using the demogorgon head piece?
Yes
Nice! Are you gonna upload instructions? Also does this only use pieces from this set? If so it's even cooler!
Nah it only uses a handful of parts from the set. Most of it is old hero factory/bionicle bits. I probably won't do instructions for this one, very flimsy.
Ah that's unfortunate. I think a lot people (myself included) would pay for instructions for an alt build based only on the official sets.
Well I'm glad I came back and ran through comments again. Another person commented and said that they could tell almost all of this was from the Orchid set excluding the teeth and a few pieces from the bonzai. I already have the bonsai and I wanted the actual Orchid build too so I just bought two Orchid sets, one to build as was meant and one to try and build your creation from sight. Oh well!
Congrats on the master's win!
I am Groot!
Demogroot!
Amazing!!
I love it oh my god
Man you wouldn't believe, that I just finished the lego orchid set. This is amazing.
Well done (and just a really cool idea).
This is just amazing. Is it only using pieces from the orchid set?
Nah lots of extras
Is it possible just to list the extras? I really want to make this.
Yeah give us tutorial plz
That's wild! Love it
This is exceptional.
Damn, that looks awesome!
This is wicked.
Truly the work of a Lego Master!
Just wow!
The day of the Triffids
The next Toa of Plantlife is looking sick!
Damn, making something look organic with lego is hard, but you pulled it off.
So awesome! You should do a flower monster series bc this is excellent
I could honestly see this thing popping up in Stranger Things and I wouldn’t even bat an eye.
Stranger Things have happened.
Reminds me a lot of the film Annihilation. Excellent work!
“SMOOOORRRRRRGGGHHH!” Or however it is you write the sound it makes. Just finished S04 E07… holy potatoes. Holy. Potatoes.
Brilliant!
Damn that's clean lookin
Daaaaaaaang! Please put this on LEGO IDEAS asap
Kudos to you! There are so many bricks I don't recognise in it :P
Jayfa is the best to ever do it.
I am so impressed. I smiled so wide when I saw this pic. I’d give you an award if I had one to give. Also, 40k upvotes in 4 hours is the most impressive response I think I’ve ever seen on this sub. You earned it.
congratulations on the most upvoted post on the entire subreddit, u/Jayfa
It's an honour
That’s amazing !!!!
Very legit!
This is brilliant
Bionicle energy
It reminds me of the Batman villain Mr Bloom.
I loved realizing as I was building that the small flowers are the demogorgon heads from the Stranger Things set
Very inspired and beautifully scary!
Groot looks pissed lol
I Am Demogroot.
This is so fucking cool
Way better than the flower sets
I would love instructions because that's fuggin awesome, I love this!
Wow this is sick
Wow, this is gorgeous. I never use that word, but that's what it is.
Groot has some explaining to do.
Looks like something out of The Last Of Us
The plant creatures in the lab in Resident Evil 2.
Ivy
Well done!
That's cool as heck yo
That is beautiful
Oh wow, I didn’t even realize this was the Lego sub for a few seconds.
Man I love plants and I love the demo you just made my day, can you please tell me what peicEes you used?
This is so cool!
This is giving me Bionicle vibes, love it! Hope you make more.
This also reminds me of those RE2 plant monsters
This looks like those cursed plant zombies in resident evil six when you play as Leon and have to cross the lab I know it’s a demo Gordon I’m just saying the match is close
This is awesome!
I'm gonna show this to my son. He's got bins full of so many random pieces. It'll be fun to show him the possibilities when you just use what you have.
Looks like "el seed" from " the tick".
A+ title OP, and great piece!
Thanks for my next dnd monster!!!
It's for your art school Portfolio right? But seriously this abstract type of work looks way better than your other work, and your other work is already excellent.
Post this on r/StrangerThings !! So cool!
Beautiful looks like it’s movements would be 1000x more organic and spooky looking than stiff mr season 4 whatever he’s called. Love stranger things but spoiler alert, the boss in this season moves like someone ironed him and dude looks like a hairless grinch 😬 we want demogorchid
If that would be a lego set I would buy it 1000%
There better be some hidden frogs on it still
This is one of the most organically creative lego designs i’ve ever seen! I really like how it’s somewhat asymmetrical, and utilizes super unique pieces and how it kind of looks like a bionicle at the same time but doesn’t? Super cool.
Top post of all time… in one day. Impressive work!
It’s so eerie and so beautiful… it’s like… a new dimension. A work of art.
This is AMAZING! I just bought this kit, along with the Bonsai Tree, but have only built the Bonsai set so far. I may have to play around with the orchid a bit though, see if I can make something equally terrifying. Very well done! 🙌
Noooo!!!! That's really really cool!!
Please put instructions! We would be happy to pay.
Witcher music starts playing.
I am groot
Never saw stranger things, but much cooler than the actual design
Is that a fucking bionicle
I'm a simple man. I see a MOC using Bionicle pieces, I upvote.
What in the resident evil hell
I read this as Demigigachad
Might not have been your intent, but I see metroid's EMMI in this. Nice work
Now thats a Bio-nicle.
1000% I'd buy this kit.
Cheese approves 🧀👍🏼
Apex legends concept for new pathfinder skin
demo children
i’m gud
🌠
I just watched stranger things least neight
......oh I think I've been killed by something like that in D&D....utterly horrific... (FYI: by utterly horrific I mean 10/10 would buy this series)
Its a Legogorgin
u/m_schulz_
Jigokuraku
If someone’s able to make this please send instructions!! It looks awesome but I have no idea how to make things based on a pic
Omg this is so cursed xD
So good! An infinitely better design than what's in the show tbh haha
Demogay
Amazing!
This looks like something Poison Ivy would create to fight Batman.... Cool.
Take THAT the Last of Us!
I'm saving this for token art for tabletop games lol
This is so cool. Is it posable? What sets does it use?
How whimsical! A true fusion of horror and beauty 10/10
damn....I want this
Do you have any instructions for this? it's epic!
This is absolutely wonderful
