This turtle is easily the best use I've seen of the brown 2x4 piece with slopes on three sides. The shell is a bit large (this probably weighs in at just above miniland scale), but it's very effective. The legs are minifig legs - you can attach them to minifig hands, which in turn will fit on most parts. Then there's the head - the mouth is created with a technique that you rarely see done intentionally. By leaving one 1x1 plate only partially attached into the piece above it, the illusion of a mouth is created. Very clever.
