Monty Python podracer challenges Mac podracer as best LEGO mashup ever
The iPod Racer by Matt De Lanoy may have seemed the epitome of LEGO geekiness — a good thing! — but this “Swallow podracer” by tbone_tbl is quite possibly its equal:
The podrace engines that represent King Arthur’s 5-ounce swallows tow a two-pound coconut pod, with the king’s trusty servant Patsy clopping along behind.
It remains unclear whether the swallows are African or European…

A nice mashup, but Pepa’s still gets my vote.

Shmails:
They are European swallows.
“King arthur proves once and for, all that two 5 ounce european swallows CAN carry a 2 pound coconut.”
