You’d probably expect a lot of the posts on a LEGO website like The Brothers Brick to be about LEGO, and you’d be right. If you’re browsing this page, you might want to consider narrowing what you’re looking for by checking out categories like “Space” and “Castle.” We’re sure there’s something here that’ll fascinate and amaze you.

Green, Brown & Blaq

Cole Blaq has burst onto the Flickr Lego scene with some really nice offerings. My favorite is this camouflaged walker, simply dubbed “Jungle Bot”.

Thanks to Greg Ramel for pointing this out!

Andy finds a new way to make Billy eat his fruits & veggies

Kitchen scenes that include refrigerators seem to be all the rage these days.

Dr. X finds inspiration in Weird Al Yankovic’s “Eat It.” Note the sticker on the fridge — a cut-up version of the “I Love Hamburgers” sticker from a SpongeBob SquarePants set, if I’m not mistaken.

Any longer out on that road and I’m one of them, a terminal psychotic...

The War Head slouches to your doom

After our suggestions to send us stuff we’ve missed, Curtis Collins took the opportunity to gently remind us that we’d missed his awesome “War Head” mecha:

If you can imagine the motion of a turtle and gorilla merged into one , this is what it looks like to see one of these moving across the battlefield….

Mosaics of unrivaled ingenuity

Brandon Griffith (icgetaway) displayed two knockout mosaics at BrickCon last October. In addition to their enormous proportions (scale picture 1 and 2), these mosaics are constructed from effective and unusual building techniques. The first, called See Your Enemy, depicts the scene from the Matrix when Neo sees the real representation of Agent Smith. The mosaic uses transparent elements placed on top of traditional colors for an added layer of texture.

The second is a representation of the artwork from the Criterion Edition of Akira Kurosawa’s “Throne of Blood,” it uses a combination of plates, tiles, and even slopes for a variety of textures. Click here for a high resolution of the mosaic to see the details.

I need a new pair of shoes

This great pair of Chuck Taylor All-Stars, by Matt Armstrong, reminded me of that.

It was a three hour tour...[Parody Sets]

Dave Shaddix is working on a beautiful series of Gilligan’s Island creations. Based on episodes from the iconic TV show, they are accompanied by some pretty snazzy box art!

Just a reminder, since the box art looks so authentic, these parody sets don’t actually exist!

A Chicken Chaser by Kevin Fedde

I’m a sucker for ApocaLego. Especially the lone survivor type. This little scene by Kevin Fedde is excellent. In fact, he is doing a series, based on this fig’s journal. You can keep track of the updates in Kevin’s ApocaLego folder.

My wife said I couldn’t blog this, as she likes chickens and felt sorry for the poor thing. Don’t tell her that I posted it, okay?

Rocko and his M8...what a pair!

Okay, I admit that I’m out of the loop on this one. But I’m sure someone will fill me in. These little bots were showing up everywhere at BrickCon. Then they started taking over Flickr. Now I’m helping them invade TBB. Why? I don’t even know. But this big one by Rocko is flippin’ sweet.

Edit: Since I stole Nannan’s thunder, he asked me to add the following link to the Flickr group administrated by Don Solo. Don is the originator of the epic Walter/M8 saga. All the information you need to know is in there. I learned a whole heap. Now I need to build my own….

It’s like Clockwork

This snazzy robotic individual is Rong Yiren‘s newest offspring. There is so much I could say but I’ll just let him speak for himself.
