Retro Lego mp3 player


Have you always wished for an mp3 player that looks like something fun to play with but can do something unexpected? Well here it is! This high tech lego is about the same size as any other mp3 player but look like any 4 by 2 lego piece. It has the same functions as any ipod shuffle such as the play, pause, next song, previous song, and volume control buttons. You can pimp out your lego with any of the basic lego colors (red, blue, yellow, green, and white.) The only defect I see in the legopod is that there is no way to store the songs. You would have to get a microSD card of up to 2GB MAX. The built in Li-ion battery, fully charged can play your songs for about 6hours before it needing another charge. The price of the lego shuffle is only $46.

Steampunk TIE fighter


This is what happens when you combine "steampunk", "lego", and star wars. They even provided some lego steam clouds! Pretty cool.


Brick Artist Spends 9-Months Building 30 Pound Star Wars Starship


I'm not sure if I should admire this man or feel sorry for him. Either way the end result is cool.


It's packed with attention to detail that has to be seen to be believed, down to different antenna sizes dotted around the tower and complex engine-plumbing. Mark's decision to avoid too many exposed studs must have added considerably to both the expense and building time.

Star Wars: Porkins’ B3-3R Astrokeg


LEGO B3-3R is Porkins astromech droid and beer keg. And probably his best friend too. Porkins and B3-3R are just the last of the dozens of LEGO models that Mike Crowley—aka Count Blockula—has been creating for years. Pretty cool huh?

Indiana Jones LEGO Sets Now Available


That's right, they just went on sale. Get one for the Short Round in your life. I'm a huge Indy fan myself, not so much a Lego fan. But I have to say they did an amazing job. Great looking stuff to gear us up for the next movie.

Giant Lego R2-D2 Scares Jawas


This huge Lego droid measures 8 feet tall! Can you imagine the size of the X-wing that he would in? Built by official LEGO Master Model Builder Dan Steinenger, with the assistance of a bunch of visiting kids, the giant R2 unit was created as part of the recent Festival of the Masters event at the LEGO Store at Downtown Disney in Orlando, Florida. He even had lights and sound effects. Check out a video here. Jawas everywhere are afraid.
