The Brothers Brick

I was just made aware that some people may not know about The Brothers Brick (TBB). If you like LEGO MOCs you will like it. And don't just ask me, ask the 1.5million (and counting) visitors we get.

Australia is presently number 5 in our readership contest but the Netherlands is catching up. Please read the blog and keep us ahead.

And that's my spruiking for today.

I'm still trying to work out how it's possible that anyone couldn't know about it. :L
I think you guys could think about some TBB merch, I reckon you could pull of some mug, t-shirt etc. sales.

^ Yeah I'm fairly used to people knowing what it is... including non-AFOLs. I've been linked to 'this great LEGO blog' before by people who know I'm into LEGO.

Merch. is under consideration but for now the effort of making it outweighs the benefits. Unfortunately we're all busy with real life which is why posts have been less frequent recently than would be ideal.

Bit of both. Some people have the knack but the rest of us have to practise. And some learn quicker from practise than others. And a well-selected and big enough collection certainly helps a lot.

Learning from others goes a long way. Especially if you choose the 'best' to learn from.
