This is totally awesome! It is super realistic, the knives and utensils are great! 5/5 ~Brandon

Amazingly detailed! I did frog dissection in 7th grade and my teacher had one with five legs :)

This is not true... Awesome work..!

Brilliant!

I saw it at the V&A in london.... V. good

insane & awsome

Wow incredible

Gory.i think i have just being put off dissection.hey did you know i have seen a 4 legged chicken that mutated natural at birth.it's dead now but they still have it.also a chicken had it's head cut off and it lived for 6 months until it chocked on a piece of grain.

Wow! I did this last year...

I really love this, not only for the build and photo – which are beautiful – but also for the uniqueness of the subject matter. I would like to use this image in a publication I am creating. Could you write me at mike@michaeldoyle.com regarding this?

Amazing dissected frog! Looks really lifelike.

hehehehe! nice! gory, but cool!

9th pic reminds me of a viking.

wo ho ho awesome1 it gruesome but epic! such contrast of colours and textures! well done1 you have surpassed yourself,if you have time could you please take a look at this-http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/272097

LOL!...LOL!!....LOL!!! XD

This is organic! This is jaw-dropper! You managed to get this frog's body essence in Lego! Stunning job!

Incredible! Yes, I would have rather dissected this guy.

Better than what I did in biology by far!!

I love disecting frogs!!!

Brings back memories. Awesome.

eh?

This is so cool. And it featured on Daily Planet! Now that's an accomplishment!

amazing! grossly realistic and perfectly built!

This is so perfect. It looks exactly like the frog I dissected in school.

Brilliant man!

Lego is a very expensive hobby. If you are serious about purchasing the frog, please contact me via flickr. http://www.flickr.com/photos/51411834@N04/

Hello Dave Kaleta, I'm from Brazil and biologist (I work with frogs). I want buy a frog, or learn how do this lego toy. How much does it cost? Please, I'm waiting your answer. Thanks! King Regards

Urp!

WOW,this brought me back to science class last year! 5/5!!!

Dead frog... ew... but it's a impressive MOC, indeed.

Wow, great job! All the details are perfect!

Oops! Sorry for the convicting tone, and I didn't really look that closely. Again, sorry!

I guess it might take a little more careful examination to see that the scalpel uses bley 1x8 door rails for the handle and silver wedge plates for the blade. The Spam knife uses a 2x8 door rail for the blade and a mixed SNOT technique for the handle all in bley.

Great build! As much as I was hoping for the final showdown to be between Gio and Stu, I think that you nailed this category. but I can't help that notice the scalpel you used looks a lot like the knife you used for your "Spam" entry.

Go Dave, go!Go Dave, go!Go Dave, go!Go Dave, go!Go Dave, go!Go Dave, go!Go Dave, go!

Aw, poor guy. Congrats on the Round 6 win.

Congrats Dave, see you in the finals, oh yes, it is the Third Revolutionary War...Stu vs Dave, Brit vs Yank. Best of luck!

See, there were these two guys in a lunatic asylum... See you in the final Bats.

Amazing execution of a great idea. The unique part usage is off the charts. Great job!

Brings me back to freshman year :)

You have my vote - clever build. Lee.

Wow, man! This build makes me want to throw up (that's the idea, right?). Anyway, awesome work! Good luck with the judges.

HI,I'm a junior Biology Teacther from Taiwan. May I use your pictures for teaching student`?

At first I didn't know what it was...

Yep. This settles it. You are just plain epic, in my book. Utterly amazing work.

Disgusting! But awesome!

Eew, this is amazing!

Both these are amazing entries: It took me a good 15 minutest to judge, and I came at a standstill. An astounding feat in precision and detail vs a surrealist masterpiece. In the end, it was the first impression that tipped the scale: by scrolling down Dave's entry I thought "poor frog". Poor frog! And it's only a bunch of plastic briks. Taking nothing from Gio's masterpiece (I appreciate surrealism probabliy more than the average guy) my vote goes to Dave.

An incredible build Dave! I love all the realistic details you've included here....including the muscle texture, and even the skin flaps! I'm glad I don't have to judge your builds!! Good luck with the judges!

Amazing take on the category! The realism is an inspiration, and the parts usage and blending of colors is ingenious. You're truly a master builder!

Yes, you may use the images (please include proper citation). You can download hi-resolution images from Flickr - http://www.flickr.com/photos/51411834@N04/sets/72157625152390727/with/5130823498/

Very tough choice as the other Judges have said. I have looked and looked at both. Just totally stumped. Dave, the frog is a stroke of brilliance, the details amazing. Gio, the men inside the head operating everything was genius! So hard to decide, but in the end, by a hair off a cat’s tookus, my vote goes to Gio.

HI,I'm a junior Biology teacher from Taiwan. May I use your pictures for teaching student?

I'm really glad I got booted out in round three, because there is NO way I'd be able to compete with this! Absolutely stunning!

As I mentioned on Gio's post (and as many others will probably claim before all is said and done) this decision was downright torture! You guys both just absolutely knocked it out of the park in this match. But, I have to make a call, and...I gave my vote to Giovanni. For me, it came down to his stunning capture of his profile. I think I was also swayed a bit by the humor, as well as the fact that he tackled both interior and exterior with such skill. So here we are tied at one and one already...this is going to be a nail biter! And Dave, despite anything my vote my suggest, just AMAZING work here...UH-MAY-ZING!!!

This is downright friggin' amazing!

This is so awesome! Haha. Dave, if you have the time, may I trouble you for an interview? I'm writing a paper on how LEGO can be used as a teaching tool and the benefits it has on kids. I know you've taught a LEGO building class and the field research would really help me out. Thank you either way.

Glad I'm not judging this round. This is fantastic work, Dave! The details are astounding and this showcases what can be done with brick when talent and skill combine!

I remember dissecting a frog in 8th grade, I nearly vommited. >Eric

Now, the detail on this is awesome! Fierce competition I'm thinking now...

Incredible level of detail and as usual you've brought something completely unexpected to the category. It'll be very hard for anyone to pick between you and Gio on this one so I'll just say well done again for your consistently outstanding entries in this competition, it's an inspiration to me and many others.

That's very hard because there is nothing to compare with Giovanni creation..... YOU BOTH ARE VERY VERY TALENTUOUS !!!!! Holly crap !! I'd like to have this imagination !!!!

Looks yummy, just need some fava beans and a nice Chianti!

Wow. This moc is after my own heart. Here's what I have dissected/skinned/ripped the organs out of: Owl pellet, Tapeworm, Common Worm, sheep's eye, mollusk, squid, octopus, jellyfish, severely obese rat, chicken, squirrel, FAT raccoon, and finally the classical frog. I'm hoping for a cat dissection soon, as larger animals are far more entertaining to dissect. If you haven't already guessed, I'm working towards a major in biology and a minor in zoology. :)

Just pure Awesomesauce! This is really, really good! Last year in 8th grade I remember our Science Teacher (My favorite teacher) dissected a Cow Heart, IT WAS AWESOME! And I got to touch it! Then he wanted a few people to dissect a pig heart and I did. IT WAS AWESOME! Anywho this is defiantly an amazing build and is stunning. The realism is great! If I were a judge this would be a hard decision, I would go with you though for realism, Gio's build was excellent as well though. I'm not a judge though so we will see how this turns out!

Simply amazing. I felt like I was back in high school biology. You have amazing detail work in this MOC. Made me feel like I was looking at a really dissection.

Amazing build, the first few pics left me wondering and then when you showed the whole thing it was clear what this was. So many details added to it, over here in the UK the only thing I've dissected at school as of yet is a pig's heart...*Yay*. Tough competition, and I don't see how you and you're opponent's creations could be judged as they are so different...May lady luck be with you. :)

WOW! My favorite part of this would have to be the techniques. I love how you used different capes to represent peeled-back skin, and the beige arms as flesh, or whatever you want to call it. Good luck, and excellent job!

Creepy! Exellent choice of subject matter (very difficult!). But you leave no room for doubt in the viewers mind. I thought of high school biology the moment I set eyes on it. Creative and accurate. Attack!

Last year in school, we did the same thing, and you recreated this so accurately and detailed, maybe more detailed than the actual thing! Remarkable work on the organs, they all look very life-like. This reminds me of the story of Gulliver for some reason...the ropes maybe? I'm not sure, astonishing work, really well-made.

The accuracy is amazing!

Gentlemen, this has got to be one of the hardest decisions yet and I don't envy the other judges on this one at all. Ok, here we go. Gio. Your entry was awesome with it's "inner workings." Your take on the category was typical "out there" Gio fashion and the build itself was stunning. Dave. Your take on the subject again took the category to a whole new level and the "anatomic correctness" was brilliant! While Gio's take was simply a BRILLIANT idea, my final decision came down to build. And while Gio's build was by no means any less of an accomplishment, I think Dave just squeeked by ya there. My vote goes to Dave. Good luck with the other judges guys! This one could go either way VERY easily! ~ Chris.

Stunning!

OMG! DAVE!!! What an entry! May god be mercyfull on our judges...

Wow. Very unique. No one would have thought of this. Not easy being green :D

What an awesome entry. This is truly amazing and so are the memories it brings back from around 4 years ago...

i feel quite bad for the frog right now, XD

I can practically smell the formaldehyde! So, when you did it, were they alive? We did it in Jr. High using dead, preserved specimens...boring! And the smell...ugh! This is truly a masterpiece, so artfully conceived! You are a constant reminder of my inadequacies when it comes to the brick, so congrats on that!~H

Oh my gosh! That's amazing! Should have realized it was a frog, yet I didn't until you said so. Sorry Gio, but I really think David is gonna win this.....and maybe the entire MocOlympics!

I am reminded of a scene from ET... very nice frog, with all the gory details... so realistic it actually manages to be gross.

You are a GOD! How? I didn't think that this was even possible! You will win, my good sir!

Great, just great, now I need you to make an anatomical model of my shattered jaw now that it hit the floor! ~T

That is absolutely amazing.

By far my favorite creation from you!

hmmm, can't deny the brilliance, this will be hard for Gio to beat, you did a fantastic job here

Wow! Great job! I couldn't tell what it was to start with but then as the pictures progressed I suddenly realised! Great work! Brilliantly made.

Well I was lucky enough to see the WIP photos of this and i'm still blown away. I'm starting to run out of superlatives for your work Dave, so i'll just say awesome.

Eww, that is grows, in a good way, because it looks real. Awesome work on the organ's details.

It is phenomenal what forms can be made with the humble lego brick in the hands of a master...

I lost my appetite, that´s how good this MOC is.

Nice! I like the way you made the whole inside.

yesssss!!!!! another step closer to winning for you ! i KNOW your going to win!

Crazy good.

First thoughts were "That isn't the anatomy of a Human...". Wasn't until the last few I recognised the Frog structure. Nice Job, good luck with the round. ~Thoy

A very lifelike rendition DK, lots of great organs and the posing is spot on. Takes me back to my Biology degree, so many Cane toads, so little time :3

Wow! Now that is an interesting use of the old bricks! That is beyond the scope of what l would even think of doing. l feel alittle sorry for your opponent, but not too much, since he can build crazy stuff too, but this will be tough too top.

Oh my.... Wow- this is insane dude! I can't believe how life-like (or dead) this thing looks. The internal anatomy of this specimen is just insane- you have the lungs, the heart, the skeletal structure, and anything else this creature would need to live. I love the use of the minifig arms for body filler, or appendages. I also think it is crazy how the specimen was tied down (most likely when alive) to the lab table- that is horrid and great at the same time. Not to mention the dissecting tools. You know what is ironic- just an hour ago I had a conversation about frog dissection- weird huh? Well anyway, great work again,Mr. Kaleta. This is nuts! Keep building! -Anthony Dunne

That is deeply impressive Dave. The variety of structures, in and outside the frog, that are captured is astounding. And isn't this a day ahead of deadline? (just for Gio to digest).

*Shriek!* I'm an avid herper and do NOT approve of the sick and inhumane use of non-human animals as dissection practices...but I DO approve of this amazing replica of a frog's anatomy.

That is sick and inhumane. Good job.
