Yosemite Sam rocks. Do I really need to say anymore? Annie Diment hit one out of the park with this build. Sweet, I say, sweet.

Its all about the Tan
This speeder by Cole Blaq is a very nice build. But somehow the monochromatic color choice really makes it pop. I’m loving the tan.
Some old men are cute...
…but many are not. Luckily this happens to be one of the former. This odd little thing was built by the builder known only as Retinence. He obviously has a knack for building the unusual. But enough talk. Without further ado, I give you Old Man Williker!
An unexpected departure [April Fool’s!]
Some of you may be aware of Nannan’s dealings with ABS substances and the recent case of him possessing several kilos of grass while traveling on a commercial airline. We were just informed that Nannan was detained last night for more serious crimes, the nature of which cannot be disclosed on the blog. It’s reasonable to speculate that this may be tied to his other lifestyle. We deeply regret the loss of a valuable contributor to the blog.
The Man, in Living Color. [April Fool’s!]
The Living Brick, that sage site of salacious scuttlebutt, has landed the most important interview in the history of the blogosphere. He actually nailed down the Man behind the Curtain. Heck, I’m friends with the guy and I can hardly ever find him. So check it out, while you still can.

Legohaulic brings death from above
Tyler does it again. This flying terror is a thing of beauty and joy forever. It’s one of those rare creations that I actually want to build myself….
Not your average Tom, Dick, and Harry
I was a major GI Joe fan, back in the day, and I have to admit that the Dreadnoks were some of my favorite characters. These three guys, Buzzer, Ripper, and Torch, were the original three. I think that’s why Angus MacLane’s CubeDude renditions warm the cockles of my heart.
Hello Kitty Duplo! [April Fool’s!]
Hello everyone. It is with great pleasure that I bring you my first post on The Brothers Brick: Hello Kitty Duplo! Yeah, I couldn’t believe it either. But seriously, how many wives of AFOLs have been wanting this? Just in time for the Big in Japan display at BrickCon, Hello Kitty and LEGO have reached a licensing agreement to create DUPLO sets based on the popular Japanese cultural icon!
The only information I was able to gather was that the first release will have six sets. Initially, they will be sold exclusively through Sanrio stores in Japan. The images above and below were gleaned off a European site, so I can only assume that the sets will be available worldwide.
The Monster will kill us All!
Matt Armstrong takes on the world with this brick-built explosive device. It’s truly da bomb. It blows me away. Okay….I’ll stop now.
Weigh in on which wire he should cut…..
The newest member of TBB: Ace Kim [April Fool’s!]
From time to time, we have the opportunity to add new faces to our stable of contributors. We try to bring on people who have a unique perspective and a good eye for a well-turned LEGO creation.
The latest member of our staff fits that description to a tee.
Please welcome Ace Kim!
Ace is best known for his former position at the helm of From Bricks to Bothans, the premier site for fans of all things LEGO, Star Wars, or both. In an unprecedented move, the Brothers Brick has purchased all rights to FBTB and will be running it as a sister site, under the TBB banner. A variety of personal issues had led Ace to rethink his desire to continue running a fansite. He was looking for a place to air his considerable opinions and, fortunately for us, we were able to work out a deal with him.
We look forward to a long and prosperous relationship between Ace and The Brothers Brick. For those people who are worried about the changes that will take place on FBTB, fear not. It will be a wild ride!
