Froth Mountain


Brickworld is upon us, dear readers! We broke tradition this year by not beging you to buy things from our cracklink store since, in addition to being a full-time student, we were formally employed for the past 18 months, earning enough money to get ourselves to the Windy City's 'burbs this June. You can still buy things if you want to help us buy beverages and food. Most of the inventory is the same, but you should buy our stupid Star Wars figs anyway.
This being the third year of our presence and the great reunion of alumni blaggers Scooty and Jonesy, we thought we would do a special presentation for you, our dear readers. The presentation is still in the works (and pending approval), but we are really excited for it an hope that you are too! Post a valued opinion below if you have any suggestions or tips.

Tromas already blagged his new transformer, but it's so nice that it deserves the honor of existing on tweee affect. It looks great in robot and spaceship mode. Check out the video of it transforming and of Tromas making noises.

Claws are going to be all the rage this summer, dear readers.

Continuing with Erik's theme of blagging blaggable content that other blags haven't blagged, look at this aethership thing! It kind of looks like an elongated master chef's helmet, but is a neat concept nonetheless. We really like the textures between the engine things and the overall streamline moderne feel.

The present and future are overwhelming (I really don't want to get old and die), so let's focus on things in the past that make us feel good. Do you remember which my own creations influenced you as you developed as a builder, dear readers? This AT-ST by metalsluguy (he seems to have forgotten a "g", or just wants to avoid the confusion of a geminate)inspired our own version. We learned loads of SNOT techniques from his instructions, and even used angles for a brief time in our own my own creations! Over time we improved our version several times and even provided instructions for my model (which you can no longer see since I had deleted my brickshelf files, oops). Which AHOL my own creations inspired you, dear readers? Post links to them in the valued opinion section!

U HAVEN'T HEARD CUZ UR PART OF THA HERD

Twee Affect is alternative legos blog. It is the important job of alternative blog to feature unseen legos from new builders. So others can see them and we can feel good about having influence in a "scene". Wouldnt you rather see new cool things instead of shitty things like everyon else?? Are you even alternative???

Check out these miniature structures by flickr user HOEFOL. THey look smart, don't you think? I think they deserve more "views". (so look at them on your computer)
