The organ grinder of yesteryear had nothing on these LEGO creations. Whereas some traditional barrel organs rotated to flick against metal pins which operate valves in a wind chest – these LEGO barrels are rigged to press keys on a keyboard. Even if the organ version of the Star Wars music doesn’t grab your attention […]
LEGO fuses Evangelion and Gundam
This creation mixes Evangelion and Gundam styles together. I say that up front because I didn’t twig from the title “EVA Gundam”. I heard the music and though to myself – wait, no, that’s the wrong mecha. Then I doubted myself. Wait, no, maybe… It’s a mix. That’s why. It’s impressive but it’ll mess with […]

Secondly, wow – we’ve got LEGO and robots, they’re in use in a hardcore science lab and all this is part of the Google Science fair. What’s not to […]
LEGO designers discuss building R2-D2
You can now get a pretty impressive R2-D2 model from LEGO. At the time of posting, searching their store for R2 comes up blank, although the keychain R2-D2 mentioned in the video below is available. I’ve noticed that some of the LEGO franchise builds can be too simple. Rather than building LEGO into the shape […]

LEGO Pokemon
