Explore the Ocean with BLDB's Mechanical Collection Fair: Limited Time Offer

The ocean's movement captured in metal mechanics.

From September 1 to September 23, 2026, BLDB (Building Block), a brand run by Shuei Network Trading Co., Ltd., will hold a limited-time event titled "BLDB Marine Mechanical Collection Fair". This event features three existing pieces from their "Ocean God Project": a manta ray, a nautilus, and a humpback whale, all presented as kinetic metal models.

During this period, customers can buy these items at a 20% discount from the regular price. The discount code "Silver Week" can be applied when checking out, ensuring customers enjoy both craftsmanship and savings.

A New Way to Enjoy Marine Life Models



BLDB has consistently reinterpreted marine life into mechanical structures through its Ocean God Project, unveiling each model in succession – the manta ray, the nautilus, and the humpback whale. However, this fair goes beyond merely showcasing these models separately. Instead, it offers a unique perspective on how to compare and construct the models together as a comprehensive experience. The manta emphasizes the flapping of wings, the nautilus tells the story of deep-sea exploration with its tentacle movements, and the humpback focuses on the interplay of its large body and internal mechanics, showing different methods of motion transfer and how they can be perceived. This fair aims to allow participants to select pieces according to their own workspace and viewing preferences.

The Electric Movement of the Ocean God Project



It's important to note that the Ocean God Project is not simply a series that reduces real-life marine creatures. It observes and transforms their characteristic movements and outlines through metal parts, gears, motors, links, and light into an imaginative mechanical art form that doesn’t exist in reality. The emphasis is placed on observing how power enters the structure and how it is converted into movement.

Each of the three models displays distinctive motions derived from the same ocean theme. Customers can choose to watch the graceful wing movements of the manta, the organic sways of the nautilus’s limbs, or the steady motion of the massive humpback’s body.

Dive into the Models



The Mechanical Manta Ray: This model consists of over 200 metal parts and operates as a kinetic structure. Once assembled and turned on, the motor and gears create a realistic up-and-down movement of the manta ray’s large wing. The design cleverly mimics the swimming motion by converting rotational movement into the flapping motion through gears, providing a visible understanding of how the components interact. This model is designed to be assembled without glue, using screws instead. It is categorized as advanced, suitable for ages 14 and up, appealing especially to those who wish to meticulously enjoy each component and its functionality. Product link

The Mechanical Nautilus: This second model reimagines the nautilus shell and tentacles via machinery reminiscent of deep-sea exploration devices. The combination of gears and motors yields an organic wave-like motion in the tentacles, complemented by internal lighting that creates different atmospheres in bright or dim environments. The design includes magnetic components that simplify the assembly and disassembly processes. Classified as intermediate difficulty, this model is suitable for ages 16 and above, and features a built-in 1800mAh lithium battery providing roughly four hours of operational time on a full charge. It's perfect for those who wish to enjoy the static and dynamic artistry of the model on their desks or shelves. Product link

The Mechanical Humpback Whale: The series’ largest model, stretching approximately 45.6 cm in length and weighing around 5 kg, this piece consists of 78 metal parts to create the distinctive silhouette of the humpback whale, with long pectoral fins and a tail. When powered on, the internal mechanisms come alive, providing continuous motion to its substantial body, illuminated by multi-layer ambient LED lights shining through its metal frame. It can be powered via wired connection or rechargeable battery for easy setup at static displays or during events. Suitable for ages 16 and up, the assembly of this model takes about 3 to 5 hours, making it an exciting project for enthusiasts who relish in both the building process and the movement of the completed piece.

A Comparison of Artistry



To facilitate comparison, the fair will provide direct links to each model's product page, highlighting their shared themes and differences. When pondering which motion intrigues the most, customers can reflect on whether they prefer the manta ray's flapping, the nautilus's lights and swirling tentacles, or the imposing presence and smooth motion of the humpback whale.

Additionally, it's vital to check the dimensions and set-up requirements to ensure that any selected models fit perfectly into the designated spaces. During the fair, the discount code can be utilized once per order, giving attendees flexibility whether they select one or all three models.

A Unique Crafting Experience



Assembling metal models is more than merely piecing parts together; it is a tactile experience that allows one to understand how structures are supported, how movements are generated, and the paths through which gears relay motion. The three models, while sharing a common ocean theme, showcase the graceful fin, the undulating tentacle, and the grandiose body in motion, enhancing the appreciation for both mechanical artistry and the beauty of marine life.
