The extremely prolific Jordan Schwartz is aiding and abetting those dang aliens. This is a real menace and nothing to joke about. Check out the evidence for yourself.

Your Leftovers hate you too
Nolnet has tapped into the universal angst surrounding leftovers. Little did you know that they feel it too…
That fridge is incredible. Why don’t I ever think of things like this?
UPDATE (AB): Moritz has added instructions for his great little refrigerator:
M3 Grant Medium Tank by Dan Siskind
Daniel Siskind (Brickmania) recently posted this awesome M3 Grant Medium Tank from World War II, in British 7th Armored Division (“Desert Rats”) markings:
The handlebars on the wheels are a nice touch, and notice the tan Brodie helmet prototypes from BrickArms on the side.
By the way, this should come as good news for all of you out there who ask if the items we feature here on The Brothers Brick are for sale (they generally aren’t) or if we can send you instructions (we can’t), Dan has a wide range of custom LEGO kits for sale, along with instructions for many of his LEGO designs.
Aaron Andrews digs Dwarfpunk
Aaron Andrews rocks the lower reaches of the earth with his mini-mining machine. He says that he was planning something bigger, but I think this diminutive drill is spot on.
The Enola Gray by Rubin
Dan Rubin has reposted pics of one of his old builds and it’s worth showing off…especially since we’d neglected to post it before. The bulky, yet sleek, lines make this craft pop.
Jordan’s gone awhalin’
Jordan Schwartz has gone to sea in a beautifully constructed Dutch whaler. This incredible ship is possibly the best ship I’ve ever seen. Those are some gorgeous lines.
Clone weirdness
Moko‘s got it going on with the clones…
Check out this fun gallery of clone minifigs with non-star wars LEGO accessories.

Hundreds of the best LEGO creations on Flickr — all in one place
Simply put, we didn’t blog everything that deserved to be blogged in 2008. In some cases, time just got away from us before we gave a major event like Brick Fan Town the full write-up it deserved (though the Visual Tour is still well worth a look). In other cases, we just missed an amazing LEGO creation completely.
“Reflection” by birdboykristian.
As I tried to write a post about the “Best LEGO creations of 2008 we really should’ve blogged,” I got invited to the LEGO – Top rating images group on Flickr.
“Super Electric Robot Team” by Peter Reid.
The group pulls together the three most-favorited photo from each member, ranging from amazing photos with hundreds of faves to hidden gems with just a few. An interesting way to view this group pool is to sort all of the photos by, well, “interestingness.”
“The War Wagon” by Fedde.
A site called Flickriver lets you flip through sets of photos by recency, randomly, or by how “interesting” they are. Scrolling down the Flickriver page for “LEGO – Top rating images” is like looking through a Greatest Hits selection from the last few years. I’m proud to say we’ve featured nearly all of the top photos from that group, but I loved seeing new things alongside all my old favorites.
Meatpunk “Grillbot” by Ryan “Moniker Pedant” Wood.
So, take some time and check out the LEGO – Top rating images group. You just might find a few new favorites yourself.
Rolling along with Erik
I’d love to see an army of these drone tanks by Erik in a futuristic city scene.
The minigun uses an interesting technique by Togor.
Lamborghini Murciélago
Here’s what Top Gear had to say about the Lamborghini Murciélago:
Makes your eyes bleed and your heart explode with joy. And that’s before you even drive it, at which point you will simply melt and cease to exist in any meaningful fashion.
Fortunately, my eyes aren’t bleeding after seeing this LEGO version by AT94, but the headlights do make my heart explode with joy.
Though we haven’t featured him here before, AT94 is a talented young builder and excellent photographer. Check out the street scene he’s been working on for a while:
