« In your Fuckin' Face Michael Dell! | Of Apple, Pixar, Disney, and Jobs » 01-16-06 You know, there are days when I think that I've seen everything there is to see on the internet; that there isn't anything new that will excite me. Then encounter something amazing, and I remember: it's the God-damn INTERNET. It's HUGE. There are enthusiasts of everything. There are the kind of Lego enthusiasts out there that have the kind of M@d 5k1LLz that nerds daren't even imagine in their nerdiest dreams. There's this fellow who has loads of models including a train that transforms Voltron-style into a giant robot. The best work of many artists can be found at NextBrick. If all their neat sculptures somehow aren't enough to impress the discerning individual, maybe you should take Henry Lim's site, because the man built a a working harpsichord out of Lego. A harpsichord, that works, from Lego. I'm gonna need a moment alone, people... Update: Oh man. While we're on the subject of L33t Lego, let me not gloss over this functional Lego knitting machine (be sure to check out the video). If you check out NextBrick, don't miss his 12-foot long masterpiece, the Tribunal Colony Ship. Based off the antimatter-drive interstellar colony ship seen in Discover magazine, the model is scale to Lego figures. It has a fully-detailed interior with five decks which include a bridge, engine room, recreational facilities, and living quarters. Posted on January 16, 2006 12:23 PM Comments: WOW Lego ROCKS!!!! It's a little sad that Andrea will probably never get to play with her lego...at least not the "good" pieces... Posted on January 16, 2006 07:30 PMI want to know what the dollar value attached to that amazing 12 ft. spaceship is. Denai: I'm sure that Andrea will be bestowed with gifts of Lego when she reaches an appropriate age. I think that everyone will agree that playing with Lego is an important part of growing up. Posted on January 17, 2006 10:33 AMBryn: you misunderstand, gifts of lego for Andrea will no doubt be taken by Denai or myself to play with, leving Andrea with the left overs, hence the "at least not the 'good' pieces" comment by Denai. Posted on January 17, 2006 11:58 AMI'll make it my job to defend Andrea's Lego from her parents then Posted on January 17, 2006 09:15 PM
