That looks bl**dy cool with the lego falling out of the chest chasm.

 

The plural of Lego is Lego

On his website there's a Lego Han Solo, awesome

 

awsum!!!!!!!! the inner geek is happy.

 

on the mod topic, while lego may seem to be a good thing for building a case out of due to it thermal properties and high self-ignition temperature (a value most people don't realize can be very low for the acrylic we like to use so much) it lacks the lateral stability and general rigidity that steel or aluminum naturally has.

I other words if you built a lego case without glue, and didn't build it in the exact proper manner, the load-bearing beams would snap like twigs.

I just tested the breaking point of one of the long technic-style beams and was surprised to find it's failing point along its longest edge (which should be the strongest) is only 2 pounds.

 

Makes me want to buy thousands of Lego bricks and build some sculpture like thing.

 

There's a jedi statue of liberty on the guys site, its also pretty minty

 

ElThomsono is right, plural is Lego!

 

No, he's not.

Plural of lego =

 

That's really quite cool. I remember going to see a LEGO exhibit at our local mall when I was a kid. I still have my collection in a large bin in my closet, and it's not uncommon for me to play with them on occasion.

Just an FYI, LEGO bricks should never be abbreviated as "LEGOs." The last page in this document will give you the necessary spellings. Note that the name is always in capital letters, never used as a generic noun, and never abbraviated.

about 4 years ago I opened my Lego box and started messing around with them..... I ended up with a sweet looking aircraft , all in black. I like it so much that it's still exposed on my desk

okay it's not nearly as good as what this guy can do, but.... nevermind

 

That's so awesome. Class quote from his piece titled Obstacle

It's only a matter of time now before we see a lego [NSFW]

Or a lego relix...

That aside tho, it's pretty amazing some of the stuff that he's done on there...like the Iwo Jimna replica....and the Jedi...all he needs is a sith to go with it...

 

good thing the keyboard keys are not made of lego as well or else whoever uses it will have bleeding fingers
