Saw this the other day. It is cool, and there's a fuck-ton of other really, really, cool non-standard lego things out there.

I read one about a guy that made a life-size harpsichord, and also one about a guy that made a Pinball machine.

Then there's this guy, who does Lego sculptures for a living.

I wish I had that much time on my hands.

Simply insane. I highly doubt there is anything you can't make out of legos...

You can never be too old for lego, never!

The White Stripes' "fell in love with a girl" video is pure lego coolness.

I saw the lego han solo in carbonite on that website of Mathan Sawaya, 'tis amazing. If you've not scoured that website do so!

I bet our Legostar could build something that complex. He has enough legos!

could yes... but i really have no desire to. I never really liked building stuff like that. I prefer building minifig structures, cities, castles, that kind of thing, I never really got into technic and building giant models and the like. Though Joel is certainly right, this guy ownz me....

Could you build a big structure though? Like a castle you could sit in or something? It wouldn't have to have any wiring - just a lot of legos.

by castle I could sit in what exactly do you mean? one just big enough that a person could sit in it? Probably, but it would take a lot of time and I'd have to get the lego bricks i left back at my parents house.
