I always thought that the Naboo star fighter from Ep. 1 were an obvious homage to Milner's Car. The chromed front, giant engines, and, of course, the Princess magnet yellow paint.
This is so cool! I rank this right up there with the motorized cooler and motorized bar stool. But these actually up the ante by being street legal!
We need need a Jalopnik Hall of Fame. I nominate this guy as the first to be inducted.

I blame the programmers. Look what happened to HAL when he was fed contradictory information. He killed the whole crew except for Bowman. Of course, it was a government order that caused this problem, so they are equally to blame in this case.
This reminds me a lot of the travelling "Bodies" exhibit, where whole bodies and body parts are plasticized.
How long until we see guys walking to the bathroom with their computer rolled up under their arm instead of the newspaper?
I think the xenomorph is the most effective low budget creature. Everything about it is so different and sinister. Giger outdid himself on that one.
Crack Pipe! Either that or the owner has been sitting in the thing sniffing the fumes seeping from the plastic dash!
Well, it looks different enough from what I usually read...guess I'll pick it up when I make my comics run tomorrow. The art alone has my interest piqued.
UGH! Please, don't do this. The original, in my worthless opinion, is an underrated classic. Sure, it itself was a Sci-Fi take on the classic western High Noon, but it was well done. It had an atmosphere of dread, and the chemistry between Sean Connery and Frances Sternhagen was spot on. Add the mystery element and the feeling of isolation, and this was a pretty damned good movie.
Another argument for why Legos are the coolest toy ever!
Helen's dog must have been licking itself not to notice the flashing lights...
This would be a huge coup if The Captain manages to hire Kesolowski away from Hendrick/JR. Motorsports. It would give him a young driver who has plenty of experience. He's still a little rough around the edges, but he has talent and savvy, as proved by how he managed himself in last Saturday's NW race. Stremme has had his chances, but never panned out. Time for someone else to have a swing at the cup level in the #12.
Awesome. Simply awesome. As someone who grew up loving both Legos and Voltron, my hats off to you for this incredible piece of art you have created. Just too cool!
Ever want to recreate a scene from "Death Race?" Here's your chance. Goddamned hippies piss me me off.
And it appears to have a budget of less than $5. The "robot" looks like it was made from a clothes hamper. Man, would that job have sucked...being made to wear a costume made from a porn-movie set clothes hamper. Yech! There was probably enough DNA in that thing to restart the human race.
These are incredible, the level of detail for a storyboard is awesome. It is really absorbing, and tells the story well without motion and sound.
Thanks for posting this! Although short, both are a very funny read.
