Benny Stardust VS Brick In The Wall - Tomorrow!

I was just asked at Starbucks the other day where I got my shirt, and of course the answer was "Tee Fury" (seems like it always is). Well, Tee Fury is at it again tomorrow, and you can score yourself one of these fine examples of textile awesomeness. Stay tuned for the link!

Working LEGO Keyboard

This is pretty damn cool. A functioning computer keyboard build almost entirely of LEGO. The only parts that are non brick are the membrane and cable. Check out the video, it's really cool.

Thanks for the head's up James

You Need This Tee

Why are you reading this? Didn't you see the title? Go get this tee! No really, stop reading and go. Why are you still here? You think this is funny? Are you waiting for something funny? OK fine, Why did the baby cross the road? It was duct taped to the chicken...there, now go!

UPDATE: Too late, it's gone already. You gotta be quick with Tee Fury

We Can Build It!

I get asked all the time "Where did you get that shirt?" and the response quite often is "Tee Fury" (in fact, I'm wearing one as I type this, and I got a new one in the mail today). Well my friends at Tee Fury wanted to let me and all of you know that tomorrow you can grab this awesome new design. Stay tuned for the link and score a sweet shirt!

Ecto-1 Unveiled At ToyFair

After my disappointment with the Back To The Future Delorean I have to admit I was a little leery when this set was announced. Especially considering Brent Waller's fantastic original design. But I'm very happy to see that it has exceeded my expectations, and the set is only going to set me back $49.99, sweet!

Did You Spot Any Of These MOCs?

When the live action scene was shot last year in Los Angeles the producers of The LEGO Movie put out a "MOC casting call" to local groups. Many talented AFOLs responded and now their work is on the big screen. I don't know which is more mind-boggling, that I know these artists and have actually held some of these MOCs, or that I didn't spot a single one when I watched the movie last week.

Goin' Live In 24 Hours, For 24 Hours

If you're like me your nerdiness extends beyond just the realm of bricks. If you're also into designer toys, art, vinyl and just toys in general, I'd like to introduce you to Toy Break (if you don't know about it already). Toy Break is a weekly web series hosted by Ayleen and George Gaspar. Tomorrow night they are broadcasting their yearly 24 hour live show, and I'm going to be there.

Spaaaaaaace

What better way to show your love for LEGO Classic Space than with a custom spacer leather jacket? Windell at Evil Mad Scientist did just that, and he shows us how he did it step by step. Click through for an excellent tutorial.

Bring On The Mundane!

Here's a pretty cool little contest going on Flickr. It started as just a private little contest on a small Facebook group, but now it belongs to the world! The concept is pretty simple, build a bit of hardware or a real world object. There's no prizes but who cares, it's awesome!

20K And Counting!

This morning the BrickNerd YouTube channel passed the 20,000 views mark. I know that's not a lot, there's other channels out there that get that on a single video in an hour. But for our crappy little show it's a milestone worth wooting about. Thanks for watching everyone!

Mousedroids Back In Stock

Mousedroids are back in stock in the BrickNerd Do-It-Yourself Fan Art store. There's only a few so act fast.

A Life-Size LEGO Car...That Runs On Air!

Holy Shmoly! This is pretty amazing. The Super Awesome Micro Project is the brainchild of Steve Sammartino and and Raul Oaida. Steve is a marketing guru and Raul is, well, a genius. This crowd-sourced project has over a half million bricks, four orbital engines, 256 pistons and a top speed of about 15MPH. But enough blabber, watch the video!

Thanks for the head's up Brad

A Galaxy To Build

Chris McVeigh has updated the instructions for his Star Wars inspired ornaments. Most are PaB compatible and all are adorable. Let's face it, your tree is naked without these. You don't want a naked tree do you? Aunt Doris is coming over and the neighbors can see it through the window. Go there, get these.
