Halo!
We probably don’t showcase Halo works here on The Brothers Brick often enough, but this one was crying out for attention. The moment I laid eyes on this masterpiece, I knew what it was.
If you don’t recognize it, you must have been living in a cave somewhere.
Update (April 2): April Fools!

please, Please, PLEASE stop. It’s not funny anymore. It wasn’t ever funny.
April 1st, 2008 at 1:32 am
Can you please link to this contest, I want ot enter my halo moces
April 1st, 2008 at 1:38 am
Oh man, that’s soooooooo awesome! I totally remember that part of the game. Keep up the good work, guys!
April 1st, 2008 at 2:08 am
I’m going to have to disagree with btd and lalabox — this ‘bullshit’ is hilarious.
Plus, you don’t have to read it if you don’t want to…
April 1st, 2008 at 2:09 am
This is the best Halo MOC I’ve ever seen. Seriously.
April 1st, 2008 at 3:01 am
Lighten up guys, they put some effort into thinking of a way to amuse us on April 1st. Just because YOU don’t think it’s funny doesn’t mean you should hate on them for trying.
April 1st, 2008 at 3:14 am
You guys should post this much more!
April 1st, 2008 at 3:29 am
zomg!! I made a MOC today of Master Chief using two 2×2 green bricks. It so roxors!!
April 1st, 2008 at 3:33 am
one word. wow
April 1st, 2008 at 4:19 am
OMG where can i by this?!!!! Do you have direcetions?
April 1st, 2008 at 5:19 am
…
Oh yeah, it’s that day.
April 1st, 2008 at 5:46 am
The Halo series itself is an April Fool’s Joke- it’s an awful franchise with no substance. : /
April 1st, 2008 at 6:08 am
Yeah, this is a joke.
oh, and SIELENCE RICHARD!
April 1st, 2008 at 6:18 am
jk has been fooled… by the nonsense that is Halo.
April 1st, 2008 at 6:31 am
I new something would be up, but this isn’t as clever as you could have been. Now if I woke up and checked my favorite lego blog now featuring MegaBlock models, that would have been crazy!
April 1st, 2008 at 6:33 am
So with that said, the day is not over. Milk it for all you’ve got! Let’s see some other Brick products! hah.
April 1st, 2008 at 8:07 am
Hahaha, I thought this was kind of weird until I scrolled down the page. The addictive additives was great.
April 1st, 2008 at 8:23 am
Personally, I have been having a great time reading these. Just the thing brighten my day!
Thanks to all The Brothers Brick!
April 1st, 2008 at 8:25 am
Once was funny. Once. This is old and well-known joke…
April 1st, 2008 at 8:31 am
I recognize it! What a masterpiece
April 1st, 2008 at 8:36 am
Has it already been a year since the FBTB prank? I’ve missed all of the overreacting.
April 1st, 2008 at 8:37 am
Word up. You guys just made my day with these posts.
April 1st, 2008 at 8:52 am
Couldn’t you just use the LEGO Halo as the April Fools Joke?
April 1st, 2008 at 9:04 am
Ok at first I was like WTF!? Did they get hacked or something?
But then I remembered. Great job guy’s!
April 1st, 2008 at 9:07 am
The texturing is pretty nice, but the color scheme seems more like a Homeworld rip-off and to be honest I’m getting pretty tired of that.
April 1st, 2008 at 12:16 pm
Whats going on with all the rubbish looking models?
April 1st, 2008 at 12:35 pm
It’s about time TBB started featuring some quality MOCs.
April 1st, 2008 at 1:06 pm
Haha, it cracked me up.
April 1st, 2008 at 1:06 pm
You shouldn’t post stuff like this, guys, David doesn’t think it’s funny. Lego is serious business.
April 1st, 2008 at 1:08 pm
some folks act like they just heard starbucks switched to all decalf! shesh.
“Humor. It is a difficult concept. It is NOT logical.”
April 1st, 2008 at 1:53 pm
I haven’t laughed on April 1st like this in years! Great HARMLESS fun guys!!!
April 1st, 2008 at 2:06 pm
Oh, my god I can’t see what you don’t understand…
This is one of the most inspirational creations i’ve ever seen here!
Truly amazing; i mean the attention to detail, the perfect combination of colors. This is definitely a true masterpiece.
Bravo guys, brav-o!
April 1st, 2008 at 2:12 pm
This was why Bley was invented. Awesome
April 1st, 2008 at 2:15 pm
yeah……… these jokes aren’t funny.
April 1st, 2008 at 2:26 pm
I don’t get it… is it a lightsaber?
April 1st, 2008 at 2:36 pm
Hey, if you are a humorless douche bag be sure to leave a comment!
April 1st, 2008 at 2:43 pm
That’s not a HALO.
April 1st, 2008 at 3:02 pm
Thanks for letting us know, John. I was fooled into thinking it was funny!
April 1st, 2008 at 4:04 pm
Isn’t that the stick for measuring how deep in the sh** you are. I think some of the other people stuck it in the wrong place. Gotta be careful. thanks for the laugh.
April 1st, 2008 at 4:15 pm
What total disregard for respect of the fine, upstanding institution that is the LEGO fan community! You should know that adults who play with toys don’t take kindly to their beloved websites jumping on a bandwagon that has been rolling for many centuries before the internet was even a gleam in Vinton Cerf’s eye. Delete them from the RSS feed? I say this is not enough, I say rally your friends on your email list & spam this site with your discontent like it’s 1999! This is a democracy right? Well let’s make these commie zealots sorry they ever tried to make us laugh!
…April Fools!
April 1st, 2008 at 4:57 pm
Some of these jokes weren’t funny, but still. KEEP IT UP!
GO BROTHERS BRICK!
April 1st, 2008 at 5:03 pm
You guys rule
April 1st, 2008 at 5:11 pm
These are great. I love the Mondrian wall with its one mysterious brown brick.
April 1st, 2008 at 5:29 pm
shut up
April 1st, 2008 at 5:44 pm
I just wish the crap at brickfilms.com would be an april fool’s joke.
April 1st, 2008 at 6:08 pm
THE REAL QUESTION IS:
Which one of the ‘Brothers’ actually built all of these MOCs??? (Them’s some dirty parts in there, man.)
And to you hodads out there: Happy April, Fools.
April 1st, 2008 at 6:09 pm
Good question Nelson, can you guess?
April 1st, 2008 at 6:53 pm
I would guess Josh built them if only by the photography. Also I don’t think you could resist putting a tentacle in there, though I wouldn’t mind seeing you write up a horror backstory for the second-to-last one!
April 1st, 2008 at 6:53 pm
What are jokes? I do not get them.
April 1st, 2008 at 6:56 pm
You’re right Ethan, Josh and Andrew were pretty much the only players involved in pulling of this stunt. I was busy to contribute to the excitement, but I hopefully put out something outrageous next year.
April 1st, 2008 at 7:27 pm
I can assure you I was surprised as the rest of you when I saw my post.
I was dutifully at school all day….
April 1st, 2008 at 7:31 pm
For the record, my kids built almost all of these. I have a 30lb tub of misc. basic brick that I told them to haul out. I explained the misson…build the ugliest things they could. They did. The only thing that was built in any kind of serious vein was the tower. It was built by my 18 month-old son, Leif. He didn’t understand the ugly part…but he did it anyway.
April 1st, 2008 at 7:45 pm
ohhhh, this is obviousily a flatended Halo
April 1st, 2008 at 9:07 pm
holy eff! look at the SNOT on that thing!
April 1st, 2008 at 9:19 pm
For the record, you guys are geniuses… the pieces of work are butt-ugly, of course, and the non-LEGO articles are little “meh”, but any regular reader of the forum who knows the sort of commentary you usually run on MOCs cannot help but be amused by your self-spoofing. The best part is the fact that it wasn’t just one post… but it kept going… and going… and going…
April 2nd, 2008 at 9:42 am
[...] the simple constructions being passed off as their usual cool as crap Lego features was awesome. Check out this Halo work for a good [...]
April 2nd, 2008 at 10:22 am
Hey guys, don’t forget young kids frequent this site, let’s keep the profanity down.
April 9th, 2008 at 2:41 pm
Haha, look at all the rage. “Don’t make me delete you from my RSS feed! HURR DEEERP!” It’s nice to clean out all the useless people every once in a while.
June 30th, 2008 at 1:01 pm
UUUmmmmm…
….let’s just say I’ve been living in a cave…
