Pick of the Week
This craft has a novel design that is not overdone. It also uses some great techniques, building off of rods and SNOT to create nice geometries. The scale is also accessible. On top of all that the color scheme is fresh. If you like this one make sure to check out the companion project: Desert Patrol.
On top of all that, the pilot has an awesome headgear element (depicted in project, not above).
Honorable Mention
Support Level: 14
The scale of this projects is probably a bit to extreme, but the quality of the work is very impressive and worthy of any Lego Band.

Week of Cuusoo
I decided to put the cutoff at 3 support this week.
Support Level: 82
This is a fun idea, and I can see why its getting all the support, but I see it as having three major issues.
First is just a personal opinion: Why would the Death Star being going after troopers. The only planet that would be appropriate in my book for bowling down troopers is the forest moon of Endor. The Death Star should be bowling down rebel scum!
Second...this certainly could not qualify as a building toy. Lego sets with Star Wars minifigs are required to have a substantial "brick" component.
Third, and the problem plaguing many "Lego" games on Cuusoo is that there is no justification for it to be made of Lego. This uses not a single Lego stud. Lego games are games that are enhanced by the use of Lego. This concept could be easily done with any ball and a set of action figures/pins.
Still I wish them the best of luck on their journey to 10k.

A very nice model. Here is a link to the Nasa documentaion on the Maven. I would have connected the solar panels with some lower profile parts though. Also, it remind me a little too much of the Hayabusa.
