Builds were rigged to create a slow-motion-style explosion effect for a cinematic hero shot.

• Dave & Richard: Built an earthquake-resistant structure that reached the highest reading on the show's "brickter scale" and was noted for its bright color palette.
• Zach & Tim: Built an earthquake-resistant structure that scored the lowest reading on the "brickter scale" and was judged low on creativity.

Builds were shaken on a rig to test structural integrity, with judging based on how well they held together.

• Zack & Wayne: Built the "Archery Hat," a wearable design praised as one of the strongest entries.

The engineering challenge centered on achieving balance and stability from one narrow support point.

• Caleb & Jacob: Won the first-round challenge by rebuilding a LEGO Lamborghini model from memory; their subsequent demolition derby vehicle was not named in available recaps.
• Mark Erickson & Steven Erickson: Built the demolition derby vehicle "Toxic Titan," praised by the judges for its aesthetic design.

• Dave & Richard: Built "Gnome Matter the Weather," a quirky, colorful windmill scene that shattered at 50 mph.
• Caleb & Jacob: Built "Portal to Atlantis," a highly detailed windmill scene that also withstood the maximum 60 mph wind test.
• Maria & Philip: Built "New Tinkerton City," an imaginative and colorful windmill scene whose windmill component failed at just 20 mph.

Builds were tested against high-powered wind machines to judge structural resilience.

• Zack & Wayne: Paired with Dave & Richard for the puppet-show pairing that produced DJ Treatz, with a bobbling head and moveable hair, and Panachio, a pirate-style fencer with a flowing cape and moving eyes and mouth; the recap did not specify which team built which puppet.

Puppets needed functioning moving parts so they could be operated during a live performance segment.

• Caleb & Jacob: Built "Chameleobster in the Bricky Bog," combining a chameleon with a lobster into a hybrid land/sea creature.
• Zack & Wayne: Built "Lair of the Lioncroc," merging a crocodile and a lionfish into one hybrid creature that judges called terrifying.
• Mark Erickson & Steven Erickson: Built "Jelraffe in Kelp Savannah," placing a giraffe head atop a jellyfish body in an aquatic setting; judges noted it read as somewhat literal in design.
• Natalie & Michelle: Built "Rateelian in Goudapest," combining a rat with an electric eel, though judges felt the surrounding gouda-cheese-world setting distracted from the creature itself.
• Dave & Richard: Built "Poco Rocko in Seebee Geebees," turning their penguin and coral builds into a mohawked "punk rock penguin" that judges felt wasn't a true land/sea mashup.

The hybrid land/sea creatures combined each partner's individually built half into one cohesive animal.

• Mark Erickson & Steven Erickson: Built "Warden of the Woods," a 1,000-year-old, 375-foot forest guardian creature with the builders positioned in its hands, featuring a lit staff, glowing yellow eyes, and flowing water effects for the night mode.

Mark & Steven Erickson's day-and-night master build won the season over fellow brother teams Zack & Wayne and Caleb & Jacob, in a finale press-covered as a 'battle of the brothers.'
