In celebration of Sharknado and its sequel, which will air tonight on SyFy, The Brother Bricks recently held a contest inviting their readers to create a LEGO model featuring sharks, nados, chainsaws, and anything else related to the silly made-for-tv movie. The contest is now over, but the entries are really fantastic. The site will announce the winners tonight, but we’ve picked some of our favorite entries for you guys to admire.
